About Anabela

Hi, I'm Anabela, RD, MPH. I'm a Registered Dietitian with over 3 years of experience in clinical research, academia, and community health, and I earned my MPH in Public Health with a focus on Nutrition & Dietetics. I love cooking, playing volleyball, and making pottery, and I bring that hands-on curiosity to my practice. I believe food should nourish and delight, and I’m committed to helping you build sustainable habits that fit your life. I'm a proponent of holistic, functional nutrition and I may ask questions about other areas of your life if you’re comfortable sharing. I’m glad you’re here.

Approach to care

My care philosophy centers on evidence-based guidance delivered with warmth. I stay current on nutrition science and translate it into practical steps you can actually use day to day. We’ll work together in a compassionate, non-judgmental way, focusing on Health At Every Size (HAES) and sustainable behavior change rather than quick fixes. My approach is holistic, considering sleep, stress, mood, and your life context. I also aim to educate so you feel confident making informed choices long after our sessions.

Your first session with Anabela

Our first appointment is a warm, collaborative conversation about you. We'll review your medical history, explore your relationship with food, and discuss what matters most in your day-to-day life. You don’t need to have everything figured out before you come; this is a no-pressure chance to share what’s been going well and what hasn’t. Together we’ll set 1 or 2 small, achievable goals for next steps and outline how we’ll track progress. I’m here to support you with patience and realism as we begin this journey.
