Who I Am
Helping You Feel Better, One Thoughtful Step at a Time
I’m Laurie Capovilla, a Registered Dietitian-Nutritionist.
I have a particular interest in complex digestive conditions like SIBO, IBS, and IBD, which make up the core of my practice.
I’m drawn to the challenge of untangling complicated symptoms and working collaboratively with my clients to find realistic, sustainable solutions…solutions that respect your unique life, body, and goals.
That said, I remain a generalist at heart.
I love the diversity of working with a wide range of people. It keeps my perspective dynamic and grounded.
Outside of digestive care, I also support individuals managing:
- Diabetes
-
High cholesterol
-
Other metabolic conditions
Wherever you’re starting from, my role is to meet you there, and help you move forward, gently, mindfully, and with purpose.
I didn’t always set out to become a Dietitian..
So how did I get here?
My journey began in Tahiti, and led me to New Zealand, where I initially pursued veterinary studies in the South Island. Life took an unexpected turn and brought me to Montreal, Canada.
There, I discovered that veterinary school wasn’t an option for international students. Almost by default, I enrolled in a nutrition program, and I haven’t looked back since.
What started as a backup plan quickly became a true calling. I was captivated by the profound relationship between nutrition, gut microbiota, and overall health and well-being, particularly given its involvement in numerous metabolic, autoimmune, and mental health disorders.
Today, I’m passionate about supporting individuals through the various phases of life, including active professional, maternity, postpartum, retirement, and beyond, helping them navigate health challenges with personalized nutrition care.
