Lauren Gielas

About Lauren

My name is Lauren Gielas, and I am a dedicated Registered Dietitian with experience providing nutrition care and counseling to individuals of all ages — from infancy through geriatrics. I am passionate about using evidence-based nutrition strategies to help clients manage chronic conditions, achieve their wellness goals, and improve their overall quality of life. My approach focuses on personalized care, motivational counseling, and practical goal-setting to create sustainable, long-term behavior change. I value collaboration with interdisciplinary teams to ensure a holistic, patient-centered approach to care and am committed to making a positive impact in every client’s health journey.

Approach to care

I believe nutrition is personal, and there’s no one-size-fits-all plan for health. My approach focuses on meeting each client where they are and helping them make realistic, lasting changes that fit their lifestyle. I value building trust, offering encouragement, and making nutrition feel approachable and empowering—because small, consistent steps can lead to lifelong success.

Your first session with Lauren

During your first session, we’ll take time to get to know each other and discuss your goals, health history, lifestyle, and any specific concerns you’d like to address. This is a collaborative conversation — not a lecture — where I’ll listen, ask questions, and begin to understand what’s most important to you. Together, we’ll identify realistic goals and outline a personalized nutrition plan that fits your daily life. My goal is to make you feel supported, informed, and confident as we begin working toward your long-term health and wellness goals.
