About Angelica
Registered Dietitian with experience working with clients from various walks of life. I specialize in providing medical nutrition therapy to help manage medical conditions such as prediabetes, diabetes, hyperlipidemia while maintaining weight stabilization.
Approach to care
By recognizing that everyone has unique needs and dietary preferences, I focus on helping individuals develop sustainable habits like meal planning, healthy food choices, rather than quick fixes. Instead of using weight as the primary measure of success, I will focus on improving cholesterol levels, blood sugar control, and other health indicators.
Your first session with Angelica
A client-centered counseling approach that focuses on empowering individuals to identify their own reasons for making dietary changes, fostering intrinsic motivation to achieve their nutrition goals by asking open-ended questions, actively listening, and reflecting back their thoughts and feelings.
