About Lisandra

Hi, I’m Lisandra Cruz, a bilingual (English & Spanish) registered dietitian with 13 years of experience supporting individuals in building a healthier, more balanced relationship with food. I believe nutrition should feel supportive, realistic, and empowering—not restrictive or overwhelming. I work with clients who feel confused by conflicting nutrition advice, tired of dieting, or ready to make changes that actually fit their lifestyle while honoring their culture and preferences.

Approach to care

My approach is rooted in mindful eating, non-diet principles, and sustainable behavior change. I focus on progress over perfection and meet you where you are—without judgment. I take a whole-person approach, recognizing that nutrition is closely connected to stress, mental health, and daily routines. Together, we work on practical strategies such as building balanced meals, managing cravings, improving energy, and developing habits that actually fit into your real life. Sessions are collaborative, culturally inclusive, and tailored to your unique needs.

Your first session with Lisandra

During our first session, we’ll take time to get to know you—your goals, health history, food preferences, and any challenges you’re currently facing. We’ll explore your relationship with food and identify realistic, personalized starting points. You can expect a supportive, judgment-free conversation, clear guidance, and a few simple, actionable steps to begin right away. Whether we meet in English or Spanish, my goal is for you to leave feeling heard, supported, and confident about your next steps.
