About Maria

Hi, I’m Maria! With so many qualified dietitians at Nourish, choosing the right fit can feel overwhelming. Here is a little bit about me and how we might work well together. I am a registered dietitian with over 18 years' experience, specializing in IBS and gut health. I help individuals with digestive discomfort, food sensitivities, hormonal imbalances, low energy, stress, and weight concerns reach their goals by personalizing nutrition and lifestyle strategies that fit into their unique daily routine. What sets me apart is not just my clinical experience or credentials, but my own health journey with debilitating IBS. I know what it feels like to be told “everything looks normal” while symptoms persist, food sensitivities grow, and fear around eating and social situations begins to take over. After shifting my mindset and approach to my own health is when I experienced a complete transformation in how I look and feel. Getting clients to experience the same is the heart of my work

Approach to care

I take a root-cause, personalized approach when working with clients that goes symptom control, to understand what’s truly driving them so we can create lasting change. The goal is to expand your diet and incorporate wellness practices that target the root cause behind your symptoms for lasting relief.

Your first session with Maria

Your first appointment is about you. We'll review your medical history, medications, and any lab work or biometrics, and establish short-term goals you can actually reach. We'll talk through symptoms, past attempts, and what matters most to you in this process. You can expect a supportive, judgment-free conversation, with clarity around what may be driving your concerns and a personalized plan with concrete steps to begin healing and feeling better. We'll go at your pace, and you'll leave with motivation and a clear path forward.
