“I have been consulting with Joelle since early in 2024 and really appreciate her approach which brings a mix of good practices and education to better understand our relation to food and how we can have better eating habits while not having the concern of being “hungry” all the time! Joelle’s approach enables a smooth transition that is easy to maintain as the approach is “long term” focused, ensuring bad or unconscious habits are progressively and effortlessly traded for better nutrition approaches. Thank You!”
— Jean B.
“I absolutely loved every session with Joelle! What stood out most was how I learned something new about my eating habits after each meeting. I now feel much more confident about all aspects of my nutrition and have built healthy habits that I know will last. I also reached the goals I set at the start of the process, thanks in large part to Joelle’s support. Thank you again!”

More About Me
Outside of work, I love to travel — especially to sunny destinations with beautiful beaches (total bliss!). Spinning is my go-to workout; it’s a great way for me to release energy and have fun at the same time. I’m a huge foodie and love discovering new restaurants and trying everything. Most of all, I’m an animal lover through and through — they hold a special place in my heart.
