Background

Amanda personally struggled with her weight for years. She tried every diet and had bouts of temporary success, but nothing ever stuck. There were years of intense restriction, years of obsession, and even years of binging. After endless trials and tribulations, countless self-help books, and a lot of compassion and self-love, she finally found the ever-elusive balance that works best for her. Helping others find it, too, has become her passion. Amanda is part of the original Culina Health team and also works as an inpatient dietitian at St. Joseph's Health.

Counseling Style

Dynamic, empathetic, and educational. Amanda takes a 360-degree approach to counseling. She considers all aspects of her patient–their personality, lifestyle, stress levels, work, movement habits, food preferences, family life, support system, medical history, and mental health–in order to develop unique strategies to help them achieve their goals. Amanda loves brainstorming with patients to plan out meals for the week, and is an easy recipe wiz.
