About Nicole

Food and human connection have shaped my career.  With over 15 years of experience in healthcare, I’ve supported individuals in reaching their personal health goals through motivation, education, and practical guidance. I specialize in diabetes management including medications, technology, and lifestyle strategies. With clinical experience in cardiac rehab, weight management (both weight loss and weight gain), long term care and care management, I meet people where they are. I’ve had the privilege of working with people from diverse backgrounds around the world, and I’m passionate about turning evidence-based recommendations into realistic, everyday habits.  I believe small, consistent changes can lead to meaningful, lifelong improvements in both physical and mental health. If you’re ready to take the next step towards feeling better and more in control of your health, I’d love to support you on that journey!

Approach to care

Evidence guides what I recommend, and empathy shapes how we do it together. I focus on sustainable behavior change and whole-person well-being rather than quick fixes. Together, we’ll break down research-backed strategies into clear, actionable steps that fit your life. Education and experience are a part of the process—I want you to feel confident, informed, and equipped to make decisions without pressure or judgment.  Our goal is to build consistency, develop skills, and create lasting success that we can celebrate along the way.  You don’t have to figure it out alone, we’ll build a plan together that truly works for you.

Your first session with Nicole

Expect a relaxed, supportive session that centers around you.  We'll review your health history, including sleep, stress, movement, your eating patterns, along with any relevant lab work (cholesterol/lipid panel, metabolic panel, A1c) and health metrics (weight, height, blood pressure). This is also a chance for me to get to know you - your goals, your challenges, and what “success” looks like in your life. From there we’ll create a few achievable short-term goals to get you started on your journey.  You don't need to have everything figured out beforehand. We'll focus on what matters most to you and build a plan that feels realistic, sustainable and aligned with your day - to –day life.  I look forward to meeting you and helping you get started.
