About Alisha
I am a Registered Dietitian and Certified Diabetes Care and Education Specialist with 8 years of experience supporting individuals in achieving their health and wellness goals. My background includes counseling in weight management, diabetes, and chronic disease prevention, as well as leading nutrition-focused programs that address food access and health equity.
Approach to care
I believe nutrition is deeply personal, and meaningful change happens when care is tailored to each individual’s life, preferences, and culture. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and evidence-based—focusing on practical strategies that help people feel confident in their food choices. I aim to make nutrition both sustainable and enjoyable, empowering individuals to improve their health while maintaining a positive relationship with food.
Your first session with Alisha
Your first session is all about getting to know you. We’ll discuss your health history, current eating patterns, lifestyle, and personal goals so I can get a full picture of your needs. Together, we’ll identify what’s most important to you and start building a realistic plan that feels doable and sustainable. I’ll also answer your questions, provide guidance on nutrition strategies tailored to your health, and share practical tips you can start using right away. By the end of the session, you’ll leave with a clear understanding of your next steps and feel supported as we move forward on your journey.
