About Alessandra

Hi! I’m Alessandra: a Registered Dietitian who believes nutrition should feel grounding, supportive, and deeply personal. My approach blends evidence-based care with the kind of warmth that makes you want to exhale and settle in. I help clients build sustainable habits that honor real life; the busy weeks, the meaningful moments, and everything in between. My hope is that our work together helps you build confidence in your choices, trust in your body, and a rhythm that feels like something you can maintain for the long haul. My background spans clinical nutrition, outpatient counseling, community education, and culinary-focused work, giving me a well-rounded perspective on both the science of nutrition and the lived experience of eating. I’ve worked with a diverse range of clients, and my north star has always been the same: meet people where they are, without judgment.

Approach to care

My work is grounded in the belief that nutrition is most effective when it’s bio-individual, flexible, and rooted in real-life patterns. I focus on helping clients build skills rather than chase perfection. That means creating a plan that adapts with you, not one you have to work around. The goal of our work is not to follow rigid rules, but to build a foundation you can trust, one that supports both your physical well-being and your relationship with food in the long term.

Your first session with Alessandra

Your first session is a chance for me to get a full picture of you. We’ll talk through your health history, nutrition background, daily routines, eating patterns, and the goals that brought you here. I’ll ask thoughtful questions to understand what’s been working, what hasn’t, and what support feels most helpful. There’s no pressure to have perfect answers; this is simply a collaborative conversation that helps me understand your experiences and design a plan that truly fits your life.
