Registered Dietitian Nutritionist & Certified Diabetes Care and Education Specialist

Camille is an anti-diet Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN), Licensed Dietitian Nutritionist (LDN), and Certified Diabetes Specialist (CDCES) who works from a weight-neutral and non-judgmental perspective.

Before joining Nourishment Works, Camille honed her expertise in the inpatient arena at UPHS-Marquette Hospital, where she offered comprehensive support to clients facing various challenges. From navigating eating disorders to managing diabetes, hypertension, and implementing tailored meal plans for specific health conditions. Camille's compassionate approach and clinical acumen ensured her clients received top-tier care. Drawing from her background in clinical nutrition, she brings a wealth of experience in addressing diverse disease states. Her goal is to help individuals break free from diet culture and embark on a journey of lifelong self-compassion, empowering them to embrace a balanced and nurturing relationship with food and their bodies.

Her Approach

Camille initiates each client journey by delving into their unique needs and aspirations. Through open dialogue, she collaborates with clients to craft personalized goals and develop actionable plans for achievement. Embracing the Health at Every Size (HAES®) philosophy, Camille integrates attuned and mindful eating principles into her practice, recognizing the value of all foods in one's life. She understands that embarking on eating disorder recovery or any form of nutrition therapy can evoke apprehension, and she strives to cultivate a safe, supportive environment where clients feel heard and understood. Together, they embark on a transformative journey to uncover the essence of living their fullest life, taking incremental, attainable steps toward holistic well-being. Camille's aspiration is for everyone to enjoy food without guilt and nurture themselves with mindfulness and compassion.
