About Ekere

After 16 years as a registered dietitian, my path has taken me from clinical care, corporate wellness, community health programs to telehealth. With an MS in Nutritional Sciences, I combine science with real-world problem solving. I enjoy learning about different cultures, spending time at the beach, and people watching, which all keep me curious about how food fits into everyday life. I translate research into simple, sustainable steps we'll use together.

Approach to care

Grounded in current research, I use evidence-based strategies while making space for your lived experience. I practice through a weight-neutral, Health At Every Size lens that focuses on behaviors and long-term habits rather than quick fixes. Warm and direct, I give clear, practical steps and education so you feel empowered to make informed choices. We'll address physical, emotional, and social factors together, building sustainable change without judgment.

Your first session with Ekere

When we meet for the first time, we'll have a relaxed, judgment-free conversation where I review your medical history and hear about your routines, wins, and frustrations. We'll establish one or two short-term, achievable goals so you leave with clear next steps and a sense of direction. You don't need to have everything figured out. Together we'll create a manageable, science-based plan that fits your life and grows over time.
