About Karla

Hi there! My name is Karla I have built a career dedicated to empowering individuals with personalized dietary approaches rooted in scientific evidence. Although my specialty is in body composition (losing of body fat/gaining of muscle mass) with a given clinical condition, my extensive experience includes adeptly guiding patients through conditions such as Overweight/Obesity Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS), diabetes, hashimotos, hypothyroidism, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, metabolic syndrome, pregnancy, Peri-menopause, menopause, and hormone replacement therapy (HRT), among others.

Approach to care

My holistic non-restrictive approach to nutrition therapy amalgamates cutting-edge research with compassionate care, ensuring that my patients receive evidence-based guidance tailored to their unique needs. I have been widely recognized for my commitment to staying abreast of the latest advancements in nutritional science, continuously integrating the most current evidence into my practice to deliver the most effective and reliable guidance. I sincerely believe in a client-centered and evidence-based approach to nutrition care because only you live in your body and knows what works best for YOU!

Our first session will be dedicated to make sure I understand your needs, wants and individual goals. We will review what has not worked for you in the past and identify the obstacles that have prevented you from achieving and maintaining your goals.
