I — ROUTINE SERVICES
HOURLY SERVICES
BetterByDesign offers three types of Hourly Services.
-
- Initial Hourly Consultation
- Clinical Hourly Services
- Specialty Hourly Services
The Initial Hourly Consultation is a non-clinical appointment for meeting with me, sharing your goals and health background, for us to discuss service options, and for you to see if I am a good fit for your needs. Any remaining time in the appointment can be “banked” for follow-up services should you decide to move forward with a package.

ROUTINE PACKAGES
-
- Comprehensive Dietary Package – is for weight and health management for individuals with routine clinical conditions, such as type 2 diabetes (including blood sugar contol or those seeking remission), high blood pressure, high cholesterol, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, etc.
- Prenatal Dietary Package – is for individuals in their first trimester of pregnancy and provides 3 Meal Plan variations; one for each trimester.
- Healthy Aging Package – is designed for older adults without health conditions and with normal lab test results who want to stay that way as they age, including maintaining muscle and bone mass.
- Menopause Management Package – is specifically designed for ‘women of a certain age’ who are struggling with the symptoms of peri-menopause, or menopause. This package addresses weight gain, fat accumulation around the mid-section, insulin resistance and/or prediabetes, as well as sleep disruption.
- Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) Package – is designed for women who want to decrease the insulin resistance that underlies PCOS, as well as reduce symptoms such as weight gain, and improve the likelihood of being able to conceive.
- Hypothyroid Management Package – is for those newly diagnosed with hypothyroidism or Hashimoto’s disease who want to normalize their weight, and optimize nutrition related to nutrients of importance in hypothyroidism.
- Dietary Management Package (a follow-up package) – is for follow-up sessions to any of the Routine packages above, and can be taken as 6 x half-hour sessions, or as 3 x one hour-sessions – or a combination of both, for a total of 3 hours of service.
Meal Plans are designed using a variety of dietary patterns, including vegetarian, pescatarian, Mediterranean, low-carb, and keto, which used to be offered through a dedicated low-carb division. If you want to know our extensive experience supporting low-carb and keto diets, you can listen to some of the podcasts that Joy, our Dietitian has been on here.
Regardless of the routine dietary pattern you choose, our approach doesn’t require you to keep a food journal, or constantly weigh and measure your food, or yourself!
RECEIPTS FOR PACKAGES
Individual services in each package are broken down into their components to make reimbursement from extended benefits easy because effectively, they are like taking several sequential hourly appointments.
All receipts are updated to have the date and time that each service in the package was provided, as this is required by almost all extended benefits plans for reimbursement.
If you would like to see how services are broken down on a receipt, you can download a sample for the Comprehensive Dietary Package here (all packages are broken down similarly).
Please note: At this time, all services are provided via a secure telehealth portal.
