Offering nutrition expertise and compassionate care
Individualized nutrition plans
Karen Fassino, RDN, LD, CLS is a Registered Dietitian with over 20 years experience providing care for pediatric, pre/postnatal, lactation, disordered eating, neurodivergent, weight loss/macros, and general nutrition therapy.
Holistic approach
During our sessions, we will work to find ways to restore relationships with food to improve your health, wellbeing, and build confidence to nourish your body. Counseling will include a Health At Every Size approach with mindful eating, intuitive eating, and a gentle approach to nutrition.
Inclusive programs for all types of diets
As a mom to neurodivergent and ARFID children, I had to learn how to navigate balancing nutrition for growth and development while honoring their specific feelings towards foods. I understand the pressure and guilt that can come from worrying that you are doing everything right.
Nutrition Therapy
Chronic or short term health conditions can be overwhelming, but food can be a valuable tool in managing your health. I can help you create a path in managing conditions like high cholesterol, hypertension, heart disease, or kidney disease.
Family Nutrition
From the beginning of pregnancy to breastfeeding/infant feeding to the ‘terrible twos’ to independent teens, I will work with your family to overcome battles and frustrations that are common at mealtimes. Together we can encourage a positive food environment for your family.
Neurodivergence
ADHD, Autism, ARFID can often cause struggles with food intake. Sensory needs, dopamine seeking, interoceptive awareness, medications, and shame are common. We will focus on gentle nutrition in order to meet food needs that are supportive to your body and overall wellbeing.
Weight Management/Macros
It’s not about willpower. It’s about designing a relationship with food that fuels your body so you can accomplish your health and fitness goals. We will work together to set sustainable goals that help you feel empowered in your health journey.
What to Expect
Initial Session
In our first session we will discuss your reasons for seeking nutritional counseling and goals. We will go over a detailed health, nutritional, and behavioral history including past diet, current intakes, and feelings about your overall health. At the end of this first session, we will set up an individualized plan to accomplish your first goal, basic nutrition education, and food guidance/meal plan if needed.
The initial assessment will last approximately one hour. $100
Follow- Up
After the initial session, we will move to follow-up sessions specific to you and your health needs. We will review your feelings, make modifications as necessary, and give detailed nutrition education specific to your goals.
Follow-up appointments can be 30 minutes to one hour. $50-$100
