About Monica

Hi! I am a Registered Dietitian and Physician Assistant Student with a background in clinical nutrition. I am passionate about helping others find peace and confidence around food. I have many hours of experience providing counseling for a wide range of medical conditions, as well as emotional eating and eating disorders. I enjoy working with diverse populations and can provide services in both English and Spanish.

Approach to care

I embrace the intuitive eating approach to nutrition, guiding clients toward a balanced and sustainable relationship with food. As a non-diet dietitian, I strive to create a welcoming, inclusive, and judgment-free space. I seek to understand your unique emotional and cultural connections to food. Together, we’ll develop a personalized plan that not only supports your goals but also fosters lifelong healthy habits.

Your first session with Monica

This is our time to focus on you! I’ll start by asking you questions to gain an understanding of your medical conditions, family background, dietary and exercise habits, medications, and more. You will have the opportunity to ask questions and share what's on your mind. We'll then work together to create an individualized treatment plan to support your success on your nutrition journey.
