About Iliana
Hi, I am happy that you're here! I have been a dietitian for 3 years and have worked in the nutrition field for about 10 years. I believe that health is a gift and I enjoy helping people enhance their overall wellbeing through nutrition, exercise, and lifestyle changes. I am passionate about cooking and baking and I believe food is a wonderful part of our lives that brings people together.
Approach to care
I am dedicated to helping individuals achieve their health goals through a positive and balanced approach to nutrition. I believe that meals should be not only nourishing but also enjoyable and sustainable to your lifestyle and cultural preferences. I am committed to guiding you towards lasting change without the pressure of rigid restrictions and unrealistic expectations.
Your first session with Iliana
I am happy that you are taking the time and steps to better your health. In our first visit I will take the time to get to know you as an individual and your health background. I will ask questions that will give me a sense of your lifestyle and what type of foods that you enjoy eating. We will discuss your goals, challenges and past experiences with food. My goal for our time together is for you to feel supported, empowered, and understood, as the focus will be on gaining a positive relationship with food and taking small, manageable steps toward your health goals. I look forward to working with you!
