Taylor Moree, RD, LD | Virtual Office Manager | Registered Dietitian |
Starting off as an intern in the summer of 2017, and hired soon after completing her registration exam, Taylor entered the world of dietetics practicing functional nutrition.
Taylor is a registered and licensed dietitian who uses a holistic approach when it comes to helping clients improve their health. Taylor’s holistic dietetic approach developed from her own struggle to become healthy. In her early twenties, she found herself trying and failing to follow the “move more, eat less approach.” She felt defeated and that something was wrong with her when she didn’t feel or look better following the low fat and low-calorie diets.
Only after discovering undiagnosed food sensitivities and Candida overgrowth was she able to finally heal her gut and in turn settle at a healthy weight by eating REAL foods. Taylor knows that being healthy is not just about food! Her approach includes diving into your sleep habits, movement patterns, and social support. Taylor’s goal is to make it easier for you to overcome barriers to reach your goals and become happy, healthy and strong in your body!
Taylor’s favorite part of counseling clients is being an investigator, helping you to identify the root cause of your disease, imbalance or weight gain. Taylor’s authentic and enthusiastic approach coupled with a focus on sustainability will help you build lifestyle transitions and experience long-term results. You don’t have to go through this journey alone, Taylor has been in your shoes and is ready to help you get to your best self!
Since starting with us, Taylor moved to North Carolina to be closer to her family. We really wanted to keep her – so she now works with clients virtually, using our HIPPA compliant video conferencing system.
