About Maureen

Hi, my name is Maureen Farmer. I have 20+ years' experience as a Registered Dietitian and an MS in Training and Development. I combine clinical experience with my learning and development expertise to guide people in making practical, sustainable nutrition choices. My counseling style is grounded in collaboration, trust, and empowerment, so we work together to find practical steps that are manageable and obtainable. When I am not working with patients, you might find me cooking, riding my Vespa, tending my garden, or volunteering at the local food pantry.

Approach to care

I blend my clinical experience with years in healthcare training and development, using education, science, and active listening to help people make nutrition choices that truly fit their lives. My goal is to meet you where you are, offer clear guidance, and support changes that feel realistic and sustainable. I practice through a weight-neutral lens, focusing on sustainable behaviors, function, and well-being rather than quick fixes or diet rules. We will learn together, build skills you can use long term, and adjust plans based on what actually fits your life. My goal is to empower you with knowledge and practical tools, so you can make informed choices that last.

Your first session with Maureen

Expect a relaxed, collaborative conversation where we build rapport and start from where you are. We'll review your medical history, talk about daily routines and how food fits into your life, and establish a couple of short-term goals that feel achievable. Nothing needs to be perfect coming in, and there is no judgment. By the end of the visit, we'll establish clear next steps and small, practical actions to try before our next appointment.
