About Marilyn

Hi there, my name is Marilyn! I'm a Registered Dietitian based in New York with a deep love for all things food and nutrition. With a background in classical ballet, I know firsthand how important it is to fuel your body with the right foods and nutrients to feel your best, and I’m all about ditching restrictive diets in favor of healthful, sustainable habits. I hold a MS in Nutrition Education and love breaking down the science of nutrition in ways that feel understandable, relatable, and enjoyable. In my free time, you’ll find me cooking, doing yoga, painting, going on walks with friends, and exploring new coffee shops around New York City.

Approach to care

My favorite word is balance, and my approach to nutrition is one that is realistic, adaptable, and most importantly, enjoyable! I believe that food is fuel, but also a source of joy, cultural connection, and community. I take a whole-person approach, meaning we won’t just talk about food, but also lifestyle, sleep, movement, etc. Your care will be fully individualized, so each session will be tailored to you and your unique experiences. Above all, it’s important to me that nutrition feels fun, empowering, and never a source of stress in your life.

Your first session with Marilyn

Day 1 is all about getting to know you! My first priority is creating a safe, non-judgmental space where you can share what’s going on in your life openly and honestly. We’ll talk about what brings you to Nourish, your current and past eating patterns, your lifestyle and movement habits, and anything else that will help me understand you and your goals more fully.
