Brittany Placencia

About Brittany

Hi! I'm a registered dietitian with experience helping individuals navigate weight loss, diabetes, and chronic kidney disease, as well as improving their relationship with food. I take a compassionate, evidence-based approach to nutrition, meeting you where you are and helping you build sustainable habits that support your health goals and lifestyle. Whether you're managing a medical condition or just trying to feel better in your body, I'm here to support and empower you with realistic, personalized guidance.

Approach to care

My approach to care focuses on sustainable, long-term habit change- not quick fixes. I believe in meeting you where you are and working together to create realistic change that fits your life, preferences, and health needs. Using evidence-based guidance, I help you set achievable goals that feel manageable and meaningful. My goal is to support you in developing a healthy relationship with food and your body while empowering you with the tools and confidence to make lasting progress—at a pace that works for you.

Your first session with Brittany

In your first session, you can expect a comprehensive nutrition assessment where we will discuss your medical history, eating habits, lifestyle, and challenges. Together, we'll set realistic short-term and long-term goals to begin building a personalized plan that fits your needs and preferences. This is also your opportunity to share questions, concerns, and priorities- my goal is to create a supportive, judgement-free space where we can build a foundation of trust and collaboration from day one.
