I had a patient who was struggling with controlling her weight and also has had issues with recurrent diarrhea and urinary tract infections. Katherine saw her with the primary focus of weight loss, but also sought to understand her whole health picture and how her diet related to all of it. She was able to help my patient lose weight but also helped her to identify the foods that were causing diarrhea. By eliminating those foods, she also stopped having the frequent urinary tract infections, which were a complication of the diarrhea. Katherine takes a full and comprehensive look at people’s health as she helps them to seek better health through better eating.

My primary physician recommended Katherine to me when my labs didn’t look so good. Katherine provided me with detailed education about nutrition and how to become healthier by making better choices. She really understood my needs and guided me without being pushy or degrading. But here’s the most important news - since working with Katherine for one year, my labs improved from “not so good” to “outstanding!” Highly recommended!

Before meeting with Katherine, I had tried every kind of fad diet, no carbs, vegan, Paleo, Whole 30, counting calories, counting points, you name, I tried it. I was just about at the point of giving up on ever finding peace with food and with my body when I met with Katherine. Through our sessions, she helped me to see that nutrition is very simple and not as complicated as the media would have you believe. She has helped me arrive at a very balanced perspective on both food and my body. I have been able to enjoy what I am eating and for the first time in my life, I have found freedom in my relationship with food.

What started as a passing lighthearted inquiry evolved into a much-needed update of my daily intake. I had no idea how much food and nutrient balance correlated to my compulsions, energy and athletic recovery. By drilling down on important variables in my life, Katherine was able to design build an intake plan that is understandable and physiologically transformative. My meetings with her are engaging, introspective, and fun. Moreover, I always leave with a clear path to improvement.
Change can be overwhelming. Katherine confidently broke down the magnanimity of change into small achievable steps.

Katherine has been an incredible guide on my journey to better nutrition. She helped me focus on key issues and make subtle changes that have resulted in more energy and better 'gut health.' Her suggestions are practical and easy to implement, and fit the needs of my family.

I appreciate Katherine's approach to nutrition because she makes simple, specific recommendations that fit into my daily life. Katherine helped me break the habit of using value judgements regarding food and instead view food as fuel. Katherine offers no-judgement no-shame nutrition support.

If you haven't met Katherine, you need to know this about her. She's honest and holds her clients accountable with gentle nudges towards better decision making. She doesn't sugar coat the truth but she doesn't leave you feeling guilty for past poor choices either. She is extremely knowledgeable and keeps up with what's happening in the world of nutrition but doesn't at all get swept away with the latest trends. This area of my life is important to me and my family but it can be overwhelming. Katherine is there to help synthesize it all and make sure I'm focused on what matters most. I need that in my life!
On my first visit, I arrived ready to jump right into next steps and and specific ideas and tips for better nutrition for me and my family, but Katherine was very intentional about sharing the science - the more technical side of food, nutrition and our bodies. I am so grateful that she cared to make sure that I'm informed with this foundational information. It has helped me make decisions on my own as I've continued down this journey to better health. And she shared information that I had never heard before in a way that I understood!
Katherine is also a great listener. She listens and discerns, then makes helpful suggestions. As we have continued to meet, we've gotten into specific ideas and tips that work well for me and my family. She's constantly sharing fantastic and creative ideas. She uses social media beautifully to share her - and others' - good ideas for recipes. Some are easy, some require more work (i.e. time and sometimes money) But she's taught me to ask why wouldn't I want to give a little more effort to something that matters so much?
I recommend Katherine Andrew without hesitation, and it's a great blessing for me to do so. She's the BEST.
