Hi! I’m Cassie (she/her)
My own personal experiences and love for all things food, health, and helping people has led me to my dream career of being a Registered Dietitian. I started my journey in nutrition in Texas, where I got a taste of working with a variety of client needs in large hospitals from Dallas to Houston, before becoming dual certified and settling into private practice in Perth, Australia. Family has drawn me back to Texas, but my passion for working in the outpatient setting continues to grow as I truly enjoy having the opportunity to build long term relationships with each one of my clients.
One thing that I have learnt is that throughout my work transitions, relationship with food and body is center stage, regardless of health status, age, or size. I appreciate that everyone’s diet is so highly personal and unique to everyone, and I feel honored to get a glimpse inside that world. I am here to listen to you, understand your struggles, and be your cheerleader every step of the way. I provide care through a non-judgemental, anti-diet lens, to provide you with a safe zone so we can truly focus on your healing. Everybody deserves to feel the joy that food can bring, and it is my goal to empower you to break free from shame and guilt around eating.
My style can be described as compassionate, direct but gentle, a little humor, and a down to earth approach grounded in social justice

Outside of work
At home, it’s my husband and outdoor cat, Dahlia. Our weekends are filled with walks (and a stop for coffee!) at Town Lake, trying new restaurants, gardening, hanging with friends, keeping up with my several nieces and nephews, and of course, plenty of downtime for Bravo shows! As much of a homebody as I am, I love traveling and experiencing new cultures - which is how I met my Aussie husband! The next few places I’d like to visit are Thailand, Greece, and Japan.
