About Irina
I am a licensed registered dietitian nutritionist with a masters degree in biomedical studies with over 14 years of experience. Passion for food and its healing and nourishing abilities led me to my current profession. I specialize in gut health, autoimmune disorders, pre-diabetes, metabolic disorders, heart health, weight loss, and pre & post bariatric surgery care. My goal is to teach my clients how to develop healthy relationship with food without restrictive or stressful dieting.
Approach to care
I take a "whole person" care approach, taking into account all areas of your life to support the health of the body, mind and spirit. I recognize that we all come from different places and backgrounds and that 'one size fits all' approach will not lead to sustainable and long-term results. I will meet you where you are at in the present moment and together we will develop a plan of action that is suited specifically for you. Your health and well-being are my top priorities. I will guide you every step of the way with personalized care tailored to your unique needs in an empathetic and non-judgmental way.
Your first session with Irina
In our first session, we will get to know each other. I will ask you about your background, your personal health history, eating habits, and current lifestyle. I would like to learn about your personal goals and what you hope to accomplish by working with me. We will focus on gathering information and identifying priorities when coming up with a nutrition plan that is specific for you.
