Why Choose an RDN? 
The authentic nutrition expert is an RDN or Registered Dietitian Nutritionist. There are many people who claim to know about weight loss methods or who offer “nutritional advice”. However, a registered dietitian nutritionist must go through extensive education and training in order to be licensed and certified in the the state of North Carolina. A registered dietitian nutritionist must have: 1.) a college degree (either a Bachelor’s, Master’s and/or PhD) in nutrition or dietetics from an accredited college or university; 2.) completion of an extensive supervised clinical and managerial internship at an accredited institution; and 3.) successfully pass a rigorous national Registration Examination for Dietitians. Additionally, an RDN maintains recertification by completing at least 75 hours of continuing education every 5 years. These qualifications make RDNs the most respected source for nutrition information and counseling.
Do you accept insurance?
Yes, currently I accept most plans of Blue Cross Blue Shield of North Carolina insurance for nutrition counseling. Supermarket tours are not covered by insurance. Please note that Blue Cross Blue Shield insurance plans from other states vary in their coverage of nutrition counseling. Together we can figure out if your BCBS plan does cover nutrition counseling. For all other insurances, I will provide you with a superbill that can be submitted to your insurance carrier for reimbursement.
