Frequently Asked Questions

How to become a client with ABS Nutrition and Fitness

Find the answer to all your nutrition counseling questions below! If you still have questions, please let me know.

Can I do a Discovery Call? How do I know if you're a good fit?

I do not offer Discovery calls at this time. If you have a specific concern or would like to inquire about a specialty I may cover, please let me know.

Why is there so much paperwork?

Submitting all of the requested information prior to your appointment gives you a running start toward meeting your goals! I will review all of your information before your first session so that you can start working on your nutrition goals right away, rather than spending valuable time doing paperwork. If you have any issues with the paperwork, feel free to email us for help at hello@absnutritionandfitness.com.

Why do I need to complete a credit card authorization form if I am using insurance?

We understand your time is valuable, and we want to ensure all appointments run smoothly. This form is an important part of our process to secure your booking and streamline our insurance billing. We never charge your card without notifying you first and every effort is made to have your sessions covered by insurance, if using. Occasionally co-pays are required, or you may want to purchase supplements, and having your credit card on file facilitates those steps.

What costs can I expect?

If you will be self-pay, please check out our self-pay page here for our package pricing. If you are using insurance, your out of pocket costs will vary and depend on your insurance coverage. Occasionally there are deductibles, co-pays or denied claims that may need paid by the patient, but typically most sessions are covered by insurance. Other costs that could incur would be late fee charges, or add-on services if you choose.

Why is there a cancellation fee?

Much like a physician's office, I require a 24 hour cancellation/rescheduling notice prior to your appointment. If you cancel or rescheduled with less notice than that, a $95 late cancellation fee will be charged. We do take into consideration emergencies, but if you have any doubt about keeping your appointment, it is best to reschedule well in advance.

Do you take insurance?

YES! Please visit our insurance page here.

Where are you located?

Please visit our separate location page here.

Can I discuss my child's eating disorders or disordered eating with you after their appointment?

In order to prioritize your child during our sessions, we offer a separate "parent debriefing" session at an additional fee. If you would like to discuss further the topics covered in their appointments, please let me know and we can schedule you a time to meet.
