About Katia

My journey into dietetics began with a personal story—growing up around diet culture, witnessing chronic health struggles in my family, and navigating my own gut health issues. These experiences fueled my passion for helping others discover sustainable and empowering paths to improved health.

Approach to care

I believe that nutrition is personal, and true wellness goes beyond calories or macros. It’s about creating a lifestyle that supports your whole self—physically, mentally, and emotionally. That’s why I take a holistic, client-centered approach, combining evidence-based nutrition with mindfulness, lifestyle coaching, and practical strategies that work in the real world.

Your first session with Katia

Your first visit with Dietitian Katia will likely be a relaxed, informative session focused on understanding your health goals, current eating habits, and lifestyle. She’ll ask about your medical history, any specific concerns (like weight management, digestive issues, or chronic conditions), and your typical daily meals and snacks. You may also discuss factors like stress, sleep, and physical activity, as these all impact nutrition. Katia will work with you to set realistic, personalized goals and may offer initial guidance or simple changes to start with—though a full meal plan may come later. The session is collaborative and non-judgmental, designed to meet you where you are and help you make sustainable changes. You might also leave with a follow-up plan or homework, such as keeping a food diary.
