About Adeeba

Hi, I’m Adeeba! I’ve been practicing as a Registered Dietitian for about 5 years. I have worked with a variety of patients in both the public health and clinical settings. I decided to pursue a career in nutrition after seeing multiple close and extended family members deal with a variety of chronic issues and saying their doctors told them to “eat better”. This made me realize the impact our food intake has on our health and lives. With that in mind, I like to approach nutrition as a way to improve quality of life.

Approach to care

I’m here to help you on your nutrition journey in a way that is achievable, sustainable and manageable through small lifestyle changes. I also find it important to recognize that nutrition isn’t always “one size fits all” and will help you find what works best for you. This also encompasses the fact that cultural foods can also be healthy and nutritious and that eating well doesn’t have to be boring and bland. Let’s work together to find solutions that fit your lifestyle!

Your first session with Adeeba

During our first session we will talk about your current eating habits, medical history, lifestyle, dietary preferences, and just getting to know you. It will be a safe, non-judgmental space to explore why you’re here and what your nutrition and health goals are. From there we will work together to create a plan to help you make some meaningful, sustainable change. And of course, feel free to ask me any questions!
