I created Empower Nutrition to move people away from diet culture and toward realistic, sustainable change. This practice is built on honesty, data, and habits that actually fit your life — not quick fixes or perfection.
As the practice has grown, I’ve intentionally built a team of licensed, highly qualified Registered Dietitians who share this same philosophy. Each provider brings their own expertise and approach, giving you the opportunity to work with a dietitian who aligns with your goals, preferences, and needs.
We work with both insurance and self-pay clients and aim to keep the process simple and supportive from start to finish.
Meet the Team
Meet Laura!
Laura is a no-nonsense nutrition coach and Registered Dietitian who helps clients break free from dieting and find sustainable, realistic habits that support long-term health. After years of trying every “quick fix” in the book, she discovered that real success comes from personalized strategies—not restriction. Now she empowers clients to choose the foods and fitness routines that help them feel their best while still living their lives. Laura specializes in weight concerns, women’s health, heart health, pediatric nutrition, mental health nutrition, healthy aging, and general wellbeing.
Meet Debra!
Debra is a Registered Dietitian whose passion for nutrition began with her daughter’s mental health journey, inspiring her to help others improve their overall health and quality of life. After serving 22 years in the USAF, she earned her degree in dietetics and spent six years working in hospital settings with critically ill patients. Her approach is no-nonsense, supportive, and focused on long-term wellbeing, prevention, and practical lifestyle changes. Debra specializes in diabetes, gut health, heart health, healthy aging, cancer care, mental health nutrition, weight concerns, constipation, and general wellbeing.
