About Mariel
Hi there! Iām Mariel, a Masterās-trained Registered Dietitian Nutritionist based in Tampa, FL. I work with both adults and children, specializing in weight management, prenatal and postpartum nutrition, and chronic condition management. My passion is helping clients build sustainable, healthy eating habits that fit their lifestyle and goals.
Approach to care
My approach is science-driven and client-centered. I believe that lasting change comes from small, realistic goals combined with education and self-awareness. By creating personalized strategies that align with each clientās unique needs and lifestyle, I am here to support my clients to create life-long healthy habits.
Your first session with Mariel
Your first session is an opportunity for us to get to know each other and discuss your goals. Weāll review your medical history, habits, and lifestyle so I can better understand your unique needs. The information you share will serve as the foundation for your personalized nutrition plan. By the end of our session, weāll set your first goal and outline a clear, actionable plan to get started. This session marks the start of our partnership in working toward a healthier version of you!
