About Maya
I have been a registered dietitian for over 20 years working in the acute care setting taking care of not only the medically complex individuals needing nutrition support but I have extensive experience working with heart transplant program. I have an in-depth understanding of nutrition science, dietetics, and the interplay between diet and health. It is my mission to provide the most current and effective advice with the latest nutrition research, guidelines, and trends.
Approach to care
I want to help people become fit and healthy in the privacy of their own home or space, help clients recognize the impact of mental and emotional health on eating behaviors. Holistic and client centered approach.
Your first session with Maya
What a pleasure to meet you! I will be gathering detailed information about the client’s medical history, including any chronic conditions, medications, allergies, and previous surgeries. Lifestyle factors such as client’s daily routine, work schedule, physical activity levels, stress factors, and sleep patterns. Reviewing current eating habits, food preferences, dietary restrictions, and any patterns of disordered eating. Collaborating with the client to set realistic and achievable health and nutrition goals.
