welcome

Hi, I'm Abby — an attorney turned integrative and functional dietitian, mom of two, and founder of Abby's Food Court. If you're here, you probably care about what you eat, what's in your home, and how it all affects how you feel. You're just looking for someone to help you put it all together.

I built this practice around a simple belief: feeling better shouldn't require overhauling your entire life. Whether you're dealing with gut issues, low energy, hormone imbalances, or just not feeling like yourself — I help you figure out why, and take the right next step.

I work with adults, kids, and families using both standard and functional lab work to get real, personalized answers. And because I believe what surrounds us matters just as much as what we eat, my work extends beyond food — into low-tox living, sustainable habits, and the everyday choices that shape how we feel.

My goal is to help you find the joy in healthy living — with practical, realistic changes that actually stick. No perfection required.

 

Here's the full story:

While practicing law in New York City, I often felt like succeeding at my job required sacrificing my health. A few months into my first position as an attorney, I didn't feel like myself.

I lacked energy and focus, my body was stiff, and I found myself mindlessly eating in front of my computer all day long.

Sound familiar?

Something had to change.

I put my research skills to work — diving deep into nutrition, wellness, and the science of behavior change. A few months later I was meal prepping, moving my body, and feeling genuinely better. When colleagues started coming to me for nutrition advice, I couldn't deny where my real passion was. I left the legal profession and went back to school to become a registered dietitian.

What fascinated me most wasn't just the science of nutrition — it was the gap between knowing what to do and actually doing it. We make over 200 food decisions a day. By decision number 200, willpower is gone. Information alone doesn't change behavior. Support does.

As I dug deeper into functional nutrition and root-cause health, I kept coming back to the same truth: what we eat is only part of the picture. What surrounds us — the products we use, the air we breathe, the chemicals in our homes — affects how we feel just as profoundly as what's on our plate. Reducing our toxic load isn't a trend or a lifestyle preference. It's a necessary part of feeling genuinely well.

There's such freedom when we stop focusing only on food and start looking at the full picture — everything we eat, use, and bring into our lives.

That's what Abby's Food Court is built on — the understanding that food, environment, and how we live are all connected. And that when you address all of it, everything changes.

The AFC Approach

 
bg-orange.jpg

I meet you where you are. I ask a lot of questions — occupational hazard from my years in law — and I listen carefully to your story before we ever talk about food.

From there, I use both standard and functional lab work to understand what's actually going on in your body. Not just what's "normal" — but what's optimal for you. Then we build a plan that fits your real life, not an ideal one, and your goals.

I specialize in:

  • Functional nutrition and root-cause health

  • Gut health, metabolism, and hormones

  • Pediatric and family nutrition

  • Low-tox and sustainable living

  • Behavior change — because knowing isn't enough
