the Nutritionist Nurse


Laura Bradford is the owner of NurtritionSM  Health Counseling, a business that takes it name from the fact that I am both a Registered Dietitian and a Registered Nurse; in addition I am a Certified Diabetes Educator.  I have tailored my education and experience to pursue my passion of helping clients to feel good, physically and spiritually.  I earned Masters degrees in both professions, with specialties of cardiac rehabilitation and diabetes education.  I have over 20 cumulative years experience as a health professional working in hospitals, outpatient clinics, and in home care.




Laura is member of: 

 
American Dietetic Association and its practice groups:

Nourishing Journey

 Life is a journey in which we all seek nourishment of some form:  food, beverage, spirit, caring, mattering.  We also journey toward learning and improvement, because that is what life calls us to do.  Everyone has their own gifts, strengths, style - AND timetable.  Change will come in its rightful time.  We can improve our health and enjoy happinesss regardless of our size or illness. 

 

You're the star and Laura cheers you on in your nourishing journey.  She listens carefully to your goals and concerns and notes your strengths.  As a nurse, she is comprehensive, holistic and a good sleuth!
