Individual Sessions

Medical Nutrition Therapy

At Rising Nutrition, we offer a range of personalized nutrition counseling options to empower you on your wellness journey. In one-on-one sessions you’ll work collaboratively with Sarah to develop an in-depth approach to improve your health.

I primarily work with people seeking help with weight loss and any co-occuring needs and/or conditions, not limited to but including:

  • Weight management
  • Prevention and treatment of type two diabetes
  • Insulin resistance
  • PCOS
  • High cholesterol
  • High blood pressure
  • Binge eating
  • Food addiction
  • Emotional Eating
  • Vegan & Vegetarian
  • GERD
  • Thyroid health
  • Gut health
  • Perimenopause & Menopause
  • Long Covid

If you are utilizing in-network insurance to pay for services, the allowed rate is determined by your insurance company. After processing the claim, they will send both you and us an “Explanation of Benefits” which tells us how much (if any) of the fee is your responsibility.

If paying at the time of service and not using insurance, our rates are: 

  • Initial Nutrition Appointment, up to 90 minutes:   $300
  • Follow-Up Nutrition Counseling, up to 60 minutes:   $150

Discounted rates are available in the case of financial need. Contact for questionnaire.

Insurance FAQ

Rising Nutrition proudly accepts insurance for individual and group nutrition counseling appointments. Learn more about how this works:

Since payment for services is ultimately your responsibility, you should verify your benefits for nutrition counseling prior to our appointment. Please call the number on the back of your insurance card and asking them following questions.

  • Does my plan cover nutrition counseling, procedure codes 97802, 97803 and 99404?
  • Is nutrition counseling covered as a preventive benefit? If so, are there certain criteria that must be met to qualify (e.g. “obesity” or “cardiovascular risk factors”)?
  • Is nutrition counseling covered as a medical benefit? If so, are there any excluded diagnoses? Do I have a deductible to meet before insurance will pay? Will I have a copay/ coinsurance?
  • Do I need a referral or prior-authorization? ​
  • Is nutrition counseling covered when via telehealth?
  • How many visits are allowed?

Insurance plans accepted include Aetna, Anthem, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Blue Care Network, Blue Cross, Blue Shield, Carefirst, Cigna, Empire, Golden Rule, Highmark, Horizon, Independence Blue Cross, Optum, Oxford, United Healthcare, United Medical Resources (UMR)

Kind words

from past clients

  • Since working with Sarah I have been able to have positive gut and digestive health. Sarah not only feels like a nutritionist but also a friend that wants to see you succeed and feel better through the use of food and vitamins. She is very knowledgeable and helps you also understand the knowledge that goes behind food science and nutrition. My relationship with food and my body has grown since working with her.

  • My experience with Sarah has been overwhelming positive! I can’t say enough on how thoughtful, insightful, considerate and patient she is. She doesn’t only help with food issues but she assists in such a loving way get to the root causes of any food problems. She has helped me heal in so many ways and I am beyond grateful that I am able to continue on this journey. Thank you Sarah!
    Naomi

  • Thanks again Sarah for all your help. And thank you for sharing your nutrition knowledge with me. I really appreciate it, and I know it was instrumental in helping me lose so much weight last year I am indebted to you.
    Karen
    Past Patient
  • It distresses me that I may have been slowly killing myself with sugar. I’m just glad my A1c and glucose numbers never went into the diabetic range. Now I have a chance to live a much healthier life with no medication intervention.
