1-1 Nutritionist Support
Meet one-on-one with a nutritionist and natural foods chef to help make your nutrition and lifestyle goals happen.
Get personalized support from a functional nutritionist and natural foods chef.
You’ll get a customized care plan tailored to your personal goals, lifestyle, fitness level, food preferences, and cooking abilities with actionable next steps. Pure Roots Nutrition provides the necessary structure, education, accountability, encouragement, and a little hand holding from a nutritionist to help you realize your health goals. Schedule a Discovery Call today to get started.
If you are managing a chronic health condition and following a physician’s protocol, a 6 or 12-month plan is best.
What can I expect from one-on-one nutritionist support?
Our first meeting is a 90-minute Nutrition Strategy Session (virtual if you are not local to the Richmond area). I’ll take time to review any prior labs, learn about any present conditions, symptoms, stressors, your history, food sensitivities, supplements/medications taken, and guidance from your physician. We’ll discuss what you want to get out of our time working together, review your intake and your 3-day journal (provided).
From there, we co-create a roadmap for you (your care plan), with a food and lifestyle-first approach, outlining a path forward prioritizing actionable next steps, resources, and recipes. All guidance includes eating whole foods (minimally processed), plant-forward, vegetarian and omnivore friendly, anti-inflammatory, balancing blood sugar, and nervous system regulation support.
During these follow-up appointments, we’ll also create a “Meal Ideas List” so you have a go-to list of healthy ideas that meet your needs and help you know exactly what to cook and eat. Whatever life throws at you that month, you can count on having a Nutritionist by your side to cheer you on and help navigate any obstacles to achieving your goals. You’ll have email and voice message access to Shelly for your quick questions and updates throughout your plan period. **Please note that any additional research, work, or direct consulting time that can’t be handled in the existing consulting time will be charged at a rate of $175/hr.
