About Alexis

Hello, I am glad that you are here! My name is Alexis. I am a registered dietitian specializing in nutrition for diabetes, pre-diabetes, and heart health. I am here to help you reach your health goals, whether that involves taking control of your blood sugar, improving your cholesterol, or managing your blood pressure. My goal is to help you feel more confident in your food choices without strict diets or restrictions. With years of experience working with diverse populations, I bring a culturally competent approach to every session. I recognize that food is deeply personal and often tied to tradition, culture, and identity. My aim is to help you meet your health goals while honoring the foods and practices that matter most to you. I’m here to help you navigate nutrition with clarity, compassion, and confidence, so you can feel better, live well, and protect your long-term health.

Approach to care

My approach is client-centered, culturally sensitive, and rooted in evidence-based nutrition. I believe in meeting you where you are and honoring your food traditions, health beliefs, and individual preferences, while providing practical guidance tailored to your medical needs and personal goals. I don’t believe in quick fixes, guilt-based coaching, or one-size-fits-all meal plans.

Your first session with Alexis

Here’s what we’ll typically cover: a thorough nutrition assessment, exploring your relationship with food, cultural and lifestyle considerations, review of any barriers you face, and your personalized goals. You’ll leave the session with a better understanding of your health and a clear, judgment-free path forward.
