About Elise

I began my nutrition journey through dance, training 5-7 hours daily. I quickly learned how nutrition affects performance, but over time, this led to disordered eating and orthorexia. While dealing with IBS, I was put on a low FODMAP diet, which added more restrictions. Through trial and error, I healed my gut and improved my relationship with food. Now, I enjoy all foods and aim to share my passion for nutrition and diverse cuisines. As a dietitian, my goal is to help others find what works for them, both mentally and physically.

Approach to care

My approach to nutrition is centered around creating a non-judgmental, supportive environment where clients feel safe and empowered. I focus on helping individuals build healthy, sustainable habits that seamlessly integrate into daily life. I believe that health is unique to each person and varies with life's stages. Using evidence-based strategies, I work with clients to set personalized goals that align with their individual needs and aspirations.

My goal is to gain a clear understanding of your current health, starting with the basics, so we can address both your short-term and long-term goals.
