Meet Lorin, she is a Registered Dietitian who specializes in diabetes management, weight loss and women’s health (maternal, perimenopause and menopause). Her education began at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, then she moved on to the Medical College of Virginia in Richmond, VA for her dietetic internship. In 2005 Lorin earned her Certified Diabetes Care and Education Specialist certification.

After her internship in Richmond, Lorin came back to the Knoxville area to begin her career in dietetics, where she started working in a hospital affiliated Wellness Center, primarily teaching weight management classes. She then gained experience on the clinical floors and in an outpatient high risk OB office. After specializing in diabetes Lorin began working with a popular insulin pump company training patients to use their insulin pump.

Lorin’s passion for nutrition does not stop with diabetes management but she loves working with people who want to see personal success and have a willingness to change for a healthier lifestyle, by learning to listen to their body’s cues. Lorin believes that change comes slowly, and habits are built over time. She understands that change is not made in a straight line. With dedicated hands-on experience counseling for behavior change, she takes a holistic approach supporting you in your efforts either with or without the aid of supplements, weight loss medications, or GLP-1’s. Lorin currently owns her own private practice – Uplift Medical Nutrition Therapy – which she is honored to have under the Berry Street umbrella and is very excited for the opportunity to work with you!!

Some of Lorin’s life experiences include, living on a small farm, in East Tennessee, with her husband, horses, chickens, dogs and cats. She is a mom of 2 grown boys. Over the years she has run a few half marathons and continues to ride horses for fun.
