About Elizabeth

I am here to support your journey, not judge it. With 20+ years of experience, I bring a heart-centered approach to nutrition counseling that’s rooted in culture, compassion, and connection. As a proud Latina, I understand how deeply food ties into family, tradition, and daily life. My goal is to help you feel empowered—not overwhelmed—on your path to better health. Whether you're managing diabetes, struggling with energy, or just want to feel more confident in your food choices, I’m here to walk alongside you. Every session is a safe space, and every step we take is guided by your goals, your story, and what matters most to you. What to expect in your first session:
We’ll chat. I want to hear your story, your struggles, and what a “healthy life” looks like for you. From there, we’ll create a plan that’s realistic, respectful of your culture, and centered around you.

Approach to care

My approach is collaborative and compassionate: we’ll work together to create realistic, sustainable changes that honor your values, traditions, and goals. Whether it’s managing a condition like diabetes or simply feeling better day-to-day, I’m here to support you with evidence-based advice and a caring heart.

Your first session with Elizabeth

We’ll take time to connect, talk, and make sure you feel comfortable. I’ll ask gentle questions to learn about your story, your health, and your everyday life. No judgment—just support. Together, we’ll begin building a plan that feels right for you. You’ll leave feeling seen, cared for, and hopeful about what’s ahead.
