Tara Coleman, Clinical Nutritionist

I am finally off the roller coaster! I have tried every fad diet under the sun and I find that if I stick to the rules, they usually work for weight loss. But I'm miserable the whole time and as soon as the weight is off, I ditch the diet and go back to whatever I was doing before. And the cycle continues. Until I met Tara. I wanted to make sensible, healthy, sustainable changes to my lifestyle, and to learn how to think differently about food and eating. This is what Tara is all about. Over the course of 4 months, my weight, body fat, and inches went down, and my metabolism, muscle weight, and muscle quality went up (yes, she'll measure all those things for you if you want!) Changes have been gradual- not radical- but SUSTAINABLE! I didn't feel deprived. I didn't eat gross diet foods or an all-meat diet (yuck). Indulging is ok, but I learned how and when to do it. Tara helped me shift my mindset and feel more confident in myself and my abilities to make the right choices. She is realistic about what day-to-day life is like for most of us, and she offers up suggestions for changes that don't add a bunch of extra time or work to your already busy schedule. I am so grateful for her and can't recommend her highly enough!

I just wish I would've met Tara and worked with her sooner!!! One of my favorite things she said was "she can promise that you'll be hungry, every date, several times a day, for the rest of your life"; it's such an investment to be able to learn how to eat for YOUR body. There is so much information out there. I really enjoyed her science-based approach and how she tailored plans to what I like to eat. It didn't feel like I was making a major change, but it was so effective. I would recommend Tara to everyone I know.

I worked with Tara for 3 months. I wanted to lose weight, but more important I wanted to feel better and learn what I could do to change my mind set about eating. I learned the importance of meal planning and that the long-term solution is not cutting out food as much as realizing how better you feel when you eat the right foods. I learned how to eat what is best for me and stop worrying about food all the time. Her realistic tips and suggestions have put me on a path for continued success, and I am sincerely grateful.

Tara is awesome!!! I went to her to make sure I was on the right path to improving my nutritional habits and she exceeded expectations. Highly recommend booking with her if you have any doubts, concerns, or questions about your diet/nutrition.

Tara was amazingly supportive and really met me where I was. She gave good guidance and shared her knowledge freely to help me think differently about nutrition. She has been invaluable to me in my “food” journey and I will continue to utilize her.

Tara is extremely knowledgeable, fun to work with, and approachable. She helped me think about food to support improvement in my physical and mental health. Our work together is helping me regularly meet goals my specialist has set for me. It’s been truly life changing. She listened to my concerns and preferences and we collaborated to find an approach that is working for me long-term, and I think will be sustainable. 10/10, would recommend!

Tara is amazing! She has been one of the most important people on my journey to health. She has a way to make you think differently about wellness and nutrition. She is incredibly smart and is well versed in all things health . Her approach is simple and not overwhelming and takes the time to learn about you as a person. This approach really helps as she customizes a path forward that helps you and is realistic. I have had other nutritionists but none like Tara. I still meet with her for maintenance to make sure I stay on track. I have lost 50lbs with her help but more importantly she built a foundation that is sustainable to keep these habits moving forward.

Tara is amazing! She struck the delicate cord between being understanding and caring while also being professional and knowledgeable. I walked away from our conversation feeling seen and understood but also with concrete tools and a broader knowledge base. I felt supported and like I suddenly had a lot more options than I'd previously had when it comes to food and nutrition!

Tara has helped me redefine how I view and use food by curating realistic food guidelines for my body and lifestyle. She made maintaining a balanced diet simple by identifying areas for me to make minor adjustments and working within my existing eating patterns. My relationship with food transformed from one of frustration, shame and reckless fun to stability, confidence, and regular enjoyment! She helped me love my body again and feel confident in taking care of myself.

I've had a great experience working with Tara on my nutrition. She has taught me how to eat in a way that is satisfying and not depriving. I'm now seeing this new way of eating as a way of life, instead of a diet, which has really stuck with me. Before working with Tara I would diet, lose weight, then give up and gain it all back again. With Tara's guidance, I have lost weight, kept it off, and continue to lose weight without feeling deprived. I see food differently now, and I know I always have the tools to go back to if I deviate from my plan while on vacation, etc.
