Kansas City Dietitian, LLC DBA Kansas City Dietitian Collective
Hi, I’m Kelsey. I enjoy going on outdoor adventures with my husband, 8-month-old son, and our dog. I also love breakfast food and you can catch me having a bowl of cereal at any time of the day. I’ve been interested in nutrition since I was young, but didn’t realize I could make a career out of it until college. One of the contributing factors to my interest in nutrition was my involvement in sports. Understanding how what I ate directly impacted my performance was a game-changer for me. Since studying nutrition in college and becoming a registered dietitian, I have learned that the many facets of nutrition can impact individuals in very different ways. Personalized nutrition is the most effective way to serve people and meet their specific needs, and I’m so excited that I have the opportunity to do this for my job!
Hi, I’m Beth. I went to college in Iowa (where I was on the Rowing team), and then moved to San Diego fore a few years before relocating to Kansas City. Ever since I was a kid, I’ve been curious about how nutrition impacted my body and how I felt. It almost seemed a little bit magical! As I got older, I began to feel some anxiety and confusion around food and eating. Thankfully, after learning more about nutrition science I was able to improve my relationship with food. Now, I am passionate about supporting others on their journey to eating in a way that promotes health as well as joy! I love helping folks work through old beliefs about food and nutrition and adding joy to the eating experience, all while working toward health goals. I understand that this is a journey and I always work to provide a safe, judgement-free space for my clients.
Hi, I’m Erica. I have a confession: I am a Real Housewives fanatic. I’m also a huge fan of creating new recipes and using nutrition to help fuel bodies well. I grew up in a small town and played almost every sport I could. During that time, I began to research how nutrition could help improve my athletic performance. During this time, I began struggling with several GI symptoms, which continued for over 10 years, with no help from the conventional side of healthcare. In college I began to learn about functional medicine and personalized nutrition. I was able to get to the root of my GI issues, finding ways to heal my gut with nutrition and functional medicine. Now, with my education and experience, I am able to help others who are struggling with the same issues find solutions when other medical paths don’t pan out.

Hi there, I’m Bethany, the owner of the Kansas City Dietitian Collective. I love food puns, cookies, and I’m obsessed with Halloween. I’m a second generation dietitian, so nutrition is basically in my blood. I love that I grew up with nutrition, and my education is invaluable, but nothing makes you an expert quite like experiencing it yourself. On my journey to specializing in complex issues, I’ve had my fair share of complex issues, including hormone concerns, getting my thyroid removed, and digestive issues that showed up after I had my third baby, developed mastitis, and was prescribed three rounds of antibiotics. Working with my health team, and using the personalized approach to nutrition that is our foundation here, I was able to come up with a sustainable plan that supports my gut health and keeps my symptoms at bay. I love to help clients find the right combination of supports to improve their symptoms and improve their lives!
