Private Menopause Nutrition Coaching
For women whose bodies have changed and diets no longer work like they used to
I’m Heather Bauer, a registered dietitian who specializes in helping women navigate menopause-related weight gain, metabolic changes, and frustration that no longer responds to dieting
I work with clients privately via Zoom - no insurance, no medication solutions. Programs start at $950 per month.
We’ll talk through your challenges and see whether my private coaching is a fit. No pressure - just clarity.
Who I work with
I work with women who are experiencing weight gain during menopause or perimenopause and feel like what used to work no longer does.
Most of my clients are busy, successful women who:
Have tried dieting, programs, or “doing everything right”
Want expert guidance they can trust
Prefer a personalized, high-touch approach
Are looking for real change, not another reset
Who This Is Not For
I don’t offer insurance-based care, group programs, or quick fixes.
I also don’t prescribe or promote weight loss medications.
My work is private-pay and designed for women who are ready to invest in personalized, long-term support.
Why Menopause Requires a Different Approach
Menopause is not a failure of willpower. It’s a physiological shift that changes how your body responds to food, stress, sleep, and exercise.
During menopause, many women experience:
Weight gain despite eating well
Changes in metabolism
Increased insulin resistance
Fatigue, disrupted sleep, and stress-related eating
My role is to help you understand what’s happening in your body and create a plan that works with these changes instead of fighting them.
When you work with me, you’re not getting a template or a system. You’re working directly with me. My coaching includes:
1
Personalized Plan
I create a personalized plan tailored to menopause, custom-built around your specific tastes, preferences, and lifestyle.
2
Weekly Check-Ins
We meet weekly via video or voice to check in, modify the plan as needed, and to keep you motivated and tracking toward your goals.
3
Daily Accountability & Support
I hold you accountable to the plan through daily text check-ins. You can also text me anytime with questions, like “I’m going to restaurant X tonight. What should I order?”
About Me
I’ve been a registered dietitian since 2001 and have spent over 20 years helping women achieve sustainable weight loss and better health.
My work has been featured on CNN, The Today Show, and in The New York Times, and I’m the author of multiple best-selling books on nutrition and weight loss.
More importantly, I’ve worked with thousands of women privately, helping them move through midlife with confidence, clarity, and a healthier relationship with food.
How I’m different.
There are many nutrition programs available today. Most are built for scale.
My practice is intentionally different:
I limit the number of clients I work with
I provide direct, ongoing support
I design plans around your life, not an app
This level of care isn’t covered by insurance, and it isn’t meant to be.
It’s designed for women who want focused, expert attention.

Bread is the Devil
Stop mindlessly inhaling the breadbasket and stop shoveling in the M&M'S–Bread is the Devil is the solution to all of our diet saboteurs.
Nutritionist Heather Bauer can count on the fingers of one hand the number of her clients who don't already know what they should eat to lose weight. So why can’t they (and their best friend and their neighbor) lose weight? Because Bread is the Devil! Yes, that's Bauer’s shorthand for the inevitable, demonic pull that certain bad habits exert on people who try to change their eating routines to drop the pounds.
The Wall Street Diet
The Wall Street Diet helps readers lose weight, keep it off, and still keep up with their busy lives.
Heather Bauer knows there aren't enough hours in the day for you to focus on the details of a complicated weight loss plan. A registered dietitian with a thriving practice in New York City, her clients have high-pressure jobs in high-profile fields: CEOs, Wall Street brokers, producers, doctors, lawyers, editors--fast-track workers at every level. These time-starved professionals don't have time to count calories or weigh food, but with Bauer's breakthrough weight loss plan they've been able to shed their extra pounds and enjoy a healthy new lifestyle.
FAQs
-
I work privately and do not accept insurance. This allows me to provide a higher level of access and personalized care than what’s possible through insurance-based programs. Many clients use HSA/FSA funds for my services — and I’m happy to provide a coded bill that you can submit to your insurance carrier for reimbursement
-
Every plan includes weekly one-on-one Zoom sessions, daily accountability check-ins via text, personalized strategies for your lifestyle, and real-time support to help you succeed in the real world — whether you're traveling, dining out, or navigating family life.
-
Great question. Weight loss meds can suppress appetite, but they don’t teach you how to eat, think, or live around food. And most insurance-covered dietitians are overbooked, under-supported, and stuck following generic plans.
I work one-on-one with each client to create sustainable strategies that empower you — not just treat symptoms. My clients get results without side effects or feeling like a number.
-
That depends on your goals and your starting point — but most clients begin seeing progress within the first few weeks. More importantly, they gain tools and habits they can sustain for life. If you've struggled with consistency or rebounding after diets or meds, this program was made for you.
-
No diets. No deprivation. My approach is all about creating structure and flexibility — not rules. I’ll show you how to make informed, satisfying food choices that fit your body, your preferences, and your lifestyle.
-
That’s exactly who I work with — women who are successful in so many areas of life but feel stuck when it comes to food and their bodies. What makes this different is the level of personalization and the relationship we build. You won’t be doing this alone.
-
We’ll talk one-on-one over Zoom. I’ll ask about your goals, your challenges, and your lifestyle, and we’ll see if my approach is the right fit for you. There’s no pressure — just a real conversation.
-
Trust me. I love people and human contact! However after many years of offices and consistent feedback from my clients that working with me via video and text is more convenient and effective than in person, I decided to change my format to be exclusively remote. I get (and respect) that some people want face-to-face. If that’s you, I’m not the best fit.
