Our Process

 
 

1

FREE DISCOVERY PHONE CALL (10 MINUTES)

Book a free 10 minute call to ask questions about how your dietitian can help you, and to get help choosing the right personal nutrition counseling package to suit your needs.

2

GET ACCESS TO YOUR SECURE “PRACTICE BETTER” PLATFORM

After chatting with your dietitian, book your nutrition counseling package and create your online profile for your secure “Practice Better” platform. This platform will be your one-stop dashboard where you can:

  • book your appointments

  • upload documents

  • chat your with dietitian via secure messaging

  • and log your food and mood journal

3

INITIAL NUTRITION ASSESSMENT (60 MINUTES)

Book your Initial Nutrition Assessment via your dashboard on the secure platform and some intake forms will be automatically sent to you. Fill in your forms via the dashboard (or the email link sent to your email inbox). At your Initial Nutrition Assessment you can expect to have all your questions answered, and your health goals and priorities discussed. Your dietitian will ask about your health history, supplements/meds, what you eat/drink regularly, allergies/sensitivities, lifestyle habits (ie. exercise, sleep, stress, work/life balance), and what’s sabotaging your health goals. At the end of the appointment, you can expect a summary of nutrition and lifestyle recommendations that can help you achieve your health goals.

4

UNLIMITED SECURE MESSAGING

Immediately after your initial nutrition assessment appointment you can start sending your dietitian secure messages via the platform website or platform phone app. You can ask questions, seek clarification on what was discussed, and check-in with your dietitian to keep your accountable to the nutrition and lifestyle changes you’ve decided to try out. You can also upload screenshots and photos of your meals/grocery run if you wanted to. It’s like having a dietitian in your back pocket 24/7. The duration of your unlimited secure messaging feature is based on your chosen nutrition counseling package (ie. 1 month, 3 months, 6 months), but you can also extend your secure messaging feature as package add-ons after it expires.

5

FOLLOW-UP APPOINTMENTS (30 MINUTES)

Depending on the nutrition counseling package you choose, you can have zero to five follow-up appointments. You can also add more follow-up appointments any time up to one year after your Initial Nutrition Assessment. Your follow-up appointments are meant to be phone calls or video meetings where you where you and your dietitian can have focus on a specific topic such as:

  • Emotional Eating/Cravings - What’s Sabotaging Me? and How Do I Crush These Cravings?

  • How Do I Choose the Best Meals for Me? And When Should I Eat Them?

  • How Do I Pair My Proteins and Carbs to Make the Most Satiating, Yummy Snacks?

  • Grocery Shopping - What To Look For?

  • Managing My Symptoms

    • GERD/Heartburn

    • Constipation, Diarrhea, Bloating/Gas

    • Stagnant Weight/Weight Plateau

    • Low Energy or Super Hunger at Mid-Day or Late-Night

    • …etc

6

optional add-on: Meal Planning Session (45 minutes)

You can schedule a meal-planning session any time as an add-on to your nutrition counseling package through your secure platform dashboard. Sometimes we just need a visual 1-week meal plan as an example to follow. At your 45 minute meal-planning session, your dietitian will ask about your likes/dislikes, food sensitivities/allergies, cultural food preferences, cooking skills/appliances, and number of people using you want the plan for. Then within 24-48 hours after the meal planning session, you’ll be sent a PDF of your 1-week meal plan, complete with a grocery list, recipes and nutrition information. You can give the meal plan a try, and have a chance to switch out some recipes/meals that just don’t quite fit your taste buds so you can have a meal-plan that fits your personality while meeting your nutritional needs and health goals.
