About Yvonne

Thirty fulfilling years in nutrition taught me that food is more than fuel, it's comfort, culture, and a powerful tool for wellbeing. I earned a Bachelor of Science in Dietetics, completed a Dietetic Internship at The Cleveland Clinic Foundation, and also hold an Associate of Arts in Medical Assisting. My career has taken me through community health, clinical hospital settings, corporate wellness, WIC, high acuity long-term care, consulting, foodservice and food safety, and addressing food security in my local community. As a dietitian I combine science-based care with practical solutions to fit your lifestyle. My special interest is in healthy aging and bone health. When I'm not working, before any hobbies, daily walks with my dog and time with family are top priority. I enjoy gardening, cooking, practicing yoga, knitting, and hitting the golf course or pickleball court. We will work together to help you reach your goals and live your best life ever.

Approach to care

Evidence guides the recommendations I offer, and empathy shapes how we work together. I focus on practical, science-based strategies that honor the whole person, mental and physical, using a Health At Every Size framework so we concentrate on behaviors and wellbeing rather than weight. We'll set clear, achievable steps, build sustainable habits, and adjust plans as life changes. I aim to educate and empower you, creating a judgment-free space where you'll feel heard, supported, and ready to take realistic action.

Your first session with Yvonne

Expect a relaxed, thorough conversation where we'll review your medical history, look over any lab work or biometrics you bring, and talk about your daily routines and priorities. We'll identify one or two short-term, achievable goals to get started and outline practical steps you can try between visits. You don't need to have everything figured out or perfect records, and there is no judgment here. I will meet you where you are, and together we'll build a plan that fits your life and supports lasting change.
