Approach to care
Why would someone want to work with Deana? Deana's goal is to educate and help her clients develop strategies for getting their food and nutrition in tune with their lifestyle and to meet their personal and health goals. She believes that food is fuel and life-giving medicine. But she also believes that food is community, history, lived experience, and joy. When you team up with Dean, she will help you learn how food can be your medicine by digging deep into your signs and symptoms, which paints a story into your root causes. She believes that everyone is individual, all things matter, and everything is important. Her clients are individuals, not just a diagnosis.
What to expect in your first session
During an initial session with Dean, one can expect to dig deep into your current medical concerns, health history, lifestyle, typical dietary intake, and physical activity, as well as a functional evaluation of any labs you may have. We look together at the signs and symptoms which paint a story into the root causes of what either ails you or what your goals are. We customize a nutritional plan that's right for your unique needs.
