Frequently Asked Questions

Some of my clients are not in a sport at all! Many are working towards incorporating more physical activity or movement and don’t formally take part in structured exercise.

I have the most experience and knowledge of team sports, contact sports, and weight class sports including olympic weightlifting and powerlifting, and I love working with more casual and rec athletes and gym-goers too! I played rugby for 10 years as well.

I do work with tactical and endurance athletes especially for those dealing with signs of under fueling or REDs

I am currently seeing clients via telehealth virtually over a HIPAA-compliant, secure platform (Kalix Health).

I also take appointments in-person in Hamburg, NY.

Every dietitian is different- some schedule by the session, but I prefer to work with clients more long term as a program/membership based model.

Once you fill out an application to work with me, we will schedule a complementary 15-20 minute onboarding call to go over details.

The session component of the program is eligible for insurance coverage, while other components of the program will be billed directly on a monthly basis.

Programs do require you to sign on for a minimum of 3 months, but this is because it takes time to see the sort of sustainable changes and results my clients are looking for. You’re welcome to continue past that but 12 weeks is a good sweet spot to check in and see how things have been going.

Nutrition sessions may be eligible for coverage, depending on your plan.

BBSN is currently in-network with Independent Health, BCBS commercial insurance plans, Univera, Aetna, United, and Cigna.

My physical office is located in Hamburg NY in the southtowns of Western New York. I also can see you virtually in the following states:

New York, Minnesota, Maryland, Delaware, Florida (where I hold licensure)

and

Virginia, Arizona, Colorado, New Jersey, Michigan, California (where licensure is not required by state law)

I can take coaching clients outside of these states but will not be able to conduct Medical Nutrition Therapy (disease management including treatment of eating disorders) nor bill insurance in those states.
