About Erick

Hi, I’m Erick. I work as a dietitian in Rockville Center, New York, with one year of experience and an MS in Nutrition and Exercise Science from CUNY Queens College. My clinical and hospital background helps me see how nutrition fits with medical care, activity, and everyday life. When I’m not in the clinic, you’ll find me playing guitar, lifting weights, climbing, hiking, or experimenting in the kitchen. I practice with curiosity, warmth, and a belief that food relationships can grow at any pace.

Approach to care

My care philosophy centers on evidence-based science, compassion, and partnership. I’ll be direct about what actions will move you forward, but I do it with an empathetic, nonjudgmental approach. I embrace a weight-neutral, HAES (Health At Every Size)-inspired perspective and focus on sustainable, long-term change rather than short-term fixes. We’ll look at your whole life, from sleep and stress to meals and mood, and translate science into practical steps you can use daily. Education is at the heart of every plan.

Your first session with Erick

Our first appointment is all about you. We’ll review your medical history, dive into your relationship with food, and go over any lab work or biometrics. This is a low-pressure, collaborative chat, not a test. You don’t need to have everything figured out yet; I’ll help you articulate goals and identify small, doable next steps. You’ll leave with a clearer sense of where we’re headed and the confidence to begin making changes at a pace that fits your life.
