Nutrition Counseling for

​       ​

Children, Adolescents, and Adults

For individuals living with food allergies, being prepared for an allergic reaction is a critical part of daily life, and oftentimes contributes to significant stress and anxiety. We help families and schools develop emergency allergy preparedness plans that increase safety, reduce anxiety, and build confidence in every environment.

While our core services focus on nutrition consultation for allergies and allergy-friendly meal planning, we know that safety starts with knowledge and readiness. That’s why we offer comprehensive support and education on topics such as: using epinephrine devices (EpiPen training), emergency response protocols, and allergen exposure prevention.

Whether you're a parent, caregiver, or educator, we ensure you're equipped with the tools and information you need to act quickly in case of an emergency.

Why Emergency Planning Is Essential

Allergic reactions, including anaphylaxis, can occur unexpectedly in minutes—even with careful planning. Proper emergency protocols not only save lives but also provide a sense of calm and preparedness to those managing allergies daily, ultimately reducing stress and anxiety.

As a trusted nutritionist for food allergies, we believe that preparedness is just as important as planning meals. Nutrition and safety go hand in hand, and we ensure that our clients feel confident in all aspects of their allergy management.

Specialized Support for Kids and Adults

As a dietitian for kids with allergies, we understand that safety training for children includes both education and emotional reassurance. We help families teach children how to speak up about their allergies, recognize early warning signs, and carry their emergency medication with confidence.

Adults managing allergies in professional or social settings also benefit from custom emergency strategies—especially when navigating events, shared kitchens, or unpredictable environments. We offer nutrition consultations for allergies that include both dietary planning and emergency readiness, blending food safety and nutrition into a comprehensive strategy.

Supporting Mental Health and Confidence

​There is a widely researched connection between food allergies and disordered eating. Living with food allergies can create fear and anxiety around eating and social interactions, contributing to restrictive diets, beyond eliminating allergens. We support clients not only nutritionally but emotionally, helping them build a positive relationship with food.
