About Monica
Hi there! My name is Monica and I am a registered and licensed Dietitian with over 12 years of experience. I have always been passionate about nutrition since high school and went on to fulfill my dream to be a Dietitian, so I am able to support others become the healthiest and happiest version of themself. I am from Miami, Fl (born and raised, and my parents are Cuban), married to my best friend, and a mom to a 5-year-old girl and 2-year-old boy :) I'm truly excited to work with you and join you on your journey!
Approach to care
My approach to nutrition counseling is personalized and specific to each person. I am a firm believer that one size DOES NOT fit all! I take the time to understand your uniqueness- lifestyle, cultural preferences and goals. And then together we can focus on creating realistic changes that can last lifelong to support long term health.
Your first session with Monica
During our first session, we will get to know each other and figure out your goals and what you would like me to support you in together. I will gather some background about you (such as family and medical history, labs, medications etc.) so we can build a sustainable plan that works for you!
