Two separate ways to work together.
Virtual nutrition counseling and Nourished Bayou Kitchen workshops are two different services. Counseling is individualized virtual care, while kitchen workshops are small-group in-home experiences.
Virtual One-on-One Nutrition Counseling
Separate service: This does not include kitchen workshops.
Personalized support for adults who want practical nutrition guidance without rigid food rules. Sessions are designed to meet you where you are and help you move forward with a realistic plan.
Format: Virtual only
In-Home Kitchen Workshops
Separate service: These workshops are not part of nutrition counseling.
Small-group cooking experiences led in person for hosts who want a memorable, food-forward workshop in their own kitchen. Great for friends, wellness gatherings, and special events.
Format: Scheduled separately after discovery call
One-on-one nutrition counseling that fits everyday life.
This is a supportive, individualized process focused on helping you create changes that feel sustainable. Whether you want more structure, better consistency, more confidence in your meals, or less overwhelm around food, counseling is tailored to your real life.
Start with your full picture
We look at your routine, eating patterns, barriers, preferences, and goals so your care plan is actually relevant to your life.
Build a realistic plan
Together we create practical strategies around meals, snacks, grocery habits, and daily rhythm without all-or-nothing pressure.
Adjust as life changes
Follow-up sessions help you troubleshoot, build consistency, and keep moving in a direction that feels sustainable over time.
Support for adults who want nutrition to feel more doable.
You want structure without extremes
Get guidance that feels balanced, flexible, and supportive instead of rigid or overwhelming.
You feel stuck in inconsistency
Work on meal rhythm, planning, and everyday habits that help you follow through more often.
You want practical help, not perfection
Focus on realistic next steps, not unrealistic standards that fall apart as soon as life gets busy.
A simple first step for both services.
The discovery call helps you decide whether virtual counseling or a kitchen workshop is the right fit, while giving you a chance to ask questions before moving forward.
Book a Discovery Call
Start with a brief conversation through SimplePractice to share what you're looking for and learn how the process works.
Move Into Virtual Care
If one-on-one nutrition support is the best fit, you'll move forward with virtual counseling and a plan tailored to your needs.
Schedule Your Kitchen Workshop
If you're interested in an in-home workshop, final scheduling is handled manually based on your location, group, and availability.
