I founded TelehealthCollective.com out of a deep passion for empowering individuals on their health journeys, fostering personal wellness and collaboration as an integral member of their healthcare team. Committed to upholding the integrity of a small private practice, I prioritize quality and accessibility. Clients often discover me through word-of-mouth referrals, a testament to the strong, meaningful relationships we cultivate.

My approach to care centers around building personal connections and understanding each client's needs without judgment. Through collaborative discussions, we identify unique health goals and wellness visions. By employing evidence-based methods, I guide clients towards strategies that drive progress and improvements.

Consistently, clients report enhancements in diet adherence, overall health, and well-being. Through comprehensive reviews and strategic interventions, I strive to support clients in making impactful changes to their lives. Join me on your transformative journey towards optimal health and wellness.

In 2017, I earned my Masters in Public Health (MPH) in Public Health Nutrition from the University of Minnesota, achieving significant milestones including:

• Fellowship in Leadership Education in Neurodevelopmental and Related Disabilities (LEND)

• Completion of a Disability Policy and Services Certificate Program

• Eligibility as a Registered Dietitian

Afterwards, I began a fulfilling career in dietetics with a focus on clinical settings, holding positions at:

• Children's Hospital of Los Angeles Leadership Education in Adolescent Health (LEAH) Fellowship (2017-2018)

• Rancho Los Amigos National Rehabilitation Center (2018-2019)

• Kaiser Permanante Oakland Medical Center (2019-2022)

In 2023, I furthered my training at the Mayo Clinic, obtaining National Board Certification for Health and Wellness Coaching (NBC-HWC). Currently, I apply this expertise as a part-time Wellness Coach and Clinical Health Educator (CHE) for Kaiser Permanente (The Permanente Medical Group), continuing to promote well-being for individuals and communities.

For Medical Nutrition Therapy (California Residents Only): Upon request, I can provide a superbill that you can submit to your insurance company for potential reimbursement if your plan includes out-of-network benefits. You can learn more about superbills [Click Here].

For Wellness Coaching: Services may be eligible for reimbursement through your FSA/HSA if a physician signs a Letter of Medical Necessity before sessions commence. For further details and an example letter template, please [Click Here].

Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or require additional information regarding reimbursement options. Email: rachel@telehealthcollective.com.

Currently I can provide Medical Nutrition Therapy in the state of California.

California law mandates that Registered Dietitians must secure a referral from a licensed healthcare provider (MD/DO/PA/NP) before providing Medical Nutrition Therapy. Providers have the option to utilize their own referral form, or you can download my nutrition referral form here and submit it to your healthcare provider. Please ONLY upload the completed referral form to your HIPAA compliant Client Portal.

An appointment is often not necessary to obtain a referral; simply contact your provider via email, phone, or secure message portal. In the absence of an official diagnosis, providers can use ICD-10 code Z71.3 for dietary counseling and surveillance on the referral form. Should you have any inquiries, please don't hesitate to reach out via email at rachel@telehealthcollective.com.
