Patient reviews

  • Maria has been wonderful to work with! She listens without judgment and helps me reframe my own harmful and judgemental thoughts. Maria is goal oriented, but also realistic about life's situstions and circumstances, helping me understand and problem-solve different areas of my life to help with my nutrition and overall well-being. Maria is knowledgeable about gestational diabetes, which I currently have, and is working closely with my specific needs to keep me and baby healthy!

About María

I am a registered dietitian and a certified diabetes educator. I am originally from Latin America. I have lived in different states around the US and Puerto Rico. I have experience serving people of all ages and backgrounds. I look forward to helping you achieve your health goals.

Approach to care

In the sessions I will focus on helping you achieve your health goals using motivational interviewing techniques and holding you accountable to put into action what we discuss. I am a good listener and flexible, adapting to different needs.

Your first session with María

In the first session expect to be asked many questions to get to know you better and set the goal you want to achieve participating in the sessions. The more information you provide, the more personalized advice I can provide.
