About Erika

Welcome! I’m Erika, a dietitian with a passion for helping people achieve their health goals and improve their overall well-being. With my experience working as a dietitian in major hospitals in Los Angeles, I’ve had the privilege of supporting patients with a wide range of conditions, including cancer, diabetes, heart disease, kidney disease, and liver disease. This diverse background has equipped me with the knowledge and skills to address complex nutritional needs and create personalized care plans. I’m committed to guiding and empowering my clients on their unique journey towards health and wellness. Let’s work together to achieve your goals and help you feel your best.

Approach to care

As a dietitian, I believe in empowering people to take control of their health and make informed choices that enhance their lives. My approach is centered on using motivational interviewing to guide people in making sustainable changes, one step at a time. I meet each individual where they are, providing personalized support that respects their unique journey and goals. Together, we create realistic plans that lead to lasting, positive change.

Your first session with Erika

During our first session, we’ll get to know each other. Our time will be spent gathering information about your health goals, past health history, and current eating habits. From there, we’ll develop a clear action plan designed to help you successfully move toward your goals
