Each consultation has a different scope. The Lawa team can help you choose an appropriate starting point.

Whole-Person Support may be relevant for adults seeking professional guidance related to nutrition or emotional well-being.
These consultations may be helpful if you:
A Dietitian Consultation does not replace medical treatment for a diagnosed condition. A Mental Health Consultation is not automatically ongoing therapy, psychiatric care, or medication management.
Whole-Person Support is not an emergency or crisis-response service. Immediate or urgent safety concerns require emergency assistance.
A Dietitian Consultation provides an opportunity to discuss your eating patterns, health considerations, daily routines, and nutrition-related concerns.
Rather than relying on a standard eating plan, your dietitian considers the information you share and helps identify realistic steps that fit your needs. Recommendations may also reflect relevant medical information or laboratory results when available and appropriate.
Your consultation may include:

Your recommendations will depend on your individual needs. Nutrition guidance should not replace medical evaluation or treatment for symptoms or diagnosed health conditions.
Do not begin or stop a prescribed diet, medication, or supplement regimen without discussing the change with the appropriate healthcare professional.
A Mental Health Consultation provides dedicated time to discuss emotional well-being, current concerns, and the support you may be seeking.
Your provider may ask about what you have been experiencing, how it affects daily life, previous support, and what you hope to address. The consultation can help clarify your needs and identify appropriate next steps.
Your consultation may include:


A Mental Health Consultation is an initial professional conversation. It should not automatically be described as psychotherapy, psychiatric treatment, medication management, or ongoing counseling.
The provider will explain:
This service is not designed for an immediate mental health or safety emergency. If you or another person may be in immediate danger, contact local emergency services or go to the nearest emergency department.
Nutrition and emotional well-being can influence health decisions, daily routines, and the ability to follow a care plan.
When appropriate, Whole-Person Support may complement medical care, movement services, or other treatments available at Lawa. Coordination should occur only within the provider’s professional scope and with appropriate attention to your privacy.
A consultation does not guarantee that a particular plan, treatment, or referral will be recommended.
The next step depends on your needs and the scope of the consultation.

You may find it helpful to bring:
You do not need to have every detail organized before asking for support. Your provider can help guide the conversation.
Whole-Person Support can complement other areas of care at Lawa. Recommendations depend on your needs and the assessment of the appropriate provider.
The Lawa team will provide any additional preparation instructions before your visit.
