About Clara

Clara Citron, RDN, LDN, CDN is a registered dietitian nutritionist based in New York City with a passion for helping clients build sustainable, balanced lifestyles. She began her career in a clinical setting before transitioning to one-on-one counseling, most recently working in telehealth with patients using GLP-1 receptor agonists for weight management. Clara specializes in weight loss and metabolic health, with a strong interest in women’s health, including PCOS and other hormonal imbalances. She also works with clients managing heart-related conditions such as hypertension, high cholesterol, and elevated blood pressure. Her counseling approach is compassionate, evidence-based, and tailored to each individual’s goals, empowering clients to create long-term healthy habits.

Approach to care

Clara’s approach to care is rooted in compassion, collaboration, and evidence-based practice. She believes nutrition counseling works best when personalized—there’s no one-size-fits-all plan. Clara takes time to understand each client’s health history, lifestyle, preferences, and goals, then develops practical, sustainable strategies for success. While experienced in weight management, Clara does not focus solely on the scale. She emphasizes overall health, sustainable habits, and how clients feel—physically and mentally—throughout their journey. Progress is measured by improvements in energy, strength, lab values, relationship with food, and quality of life. Clara creates a supportive, judgment-free space where clients feel heard and empowered. Whether supporting metabolic health, women’s health, or managing heart conditions, her goal is to equip clients with the tools and confidence for lifelong wellness.

Your first session with Clara

In the first session, Clara takes time to get to know each client as a whole person—not just their medical history or dietary habits. She will review health history, family medical history, current lifestyle, food preferences, and any lab results or medical conditions. Clients can expect a collaborative conversation where goals, challenges, and priorities are discussed in a supportive, judgment-free space. Clara uses this information to begin creating a personalized plan that is realistic, flexible, and tailored to the client’s needs. While the first session is focused on learning and understanding, clients will also leave with practical, actionable steps to start making progress right away. Clara’s goal is for each person to walk away feeling heard, supported, and confident about their next steps toward better health.
