About Najary

Hi, I’m Najary—a bilingual Registered Dietitian with advanced training in clinical nutrition and a background in psychology. I specialize in weight management, bariatric nutrition, hormonal health, and chronic conditions like PCOS, diabetes, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, IBS, GERD, and autoimmune diseases. My experience spans telehealth, outpatient care, public health, and nutrition research. I’ve supported hundreds of patients on their health journeys—and as someone who has personally lost 80 pounds, I understand the emotional and physical challenges of making lasting changes. I'm here to provide knowledgeable, compassionate care tailored to your unique needs.

Approach to care

My approach is evidence-based, personalized, and rooted in both nutritional science and functional health. I take a whole-body view—addressing nutrition, sleep, exercise, stress, and daily habits to support lasting wellness. I provide individualized guidance on calories, macronutrients, and supplements, plus meal planning, grocery lists, and practical advice for eating out and quick, healthy meal ideas to fit your busy lifestyle. Whether managing chronic conditions, preparing for bariatric surgery, or working toward sustainable weight loss, we’ll build a flexible, realistic plan that works for you. I’m here to support you every step of the way.

Your first session with Najary

In your first session, we’ll review your medical history, lifestyle, and goals to create a realistic, sustainable plan. You’ll share your food preferences, and I’ll provide a personalized meal plan with snacks, plus guidance on calories, macronutrients, supplements, exercise, and behavior change. We’ll also address your nutrition questions and explore emotional or stress eating through supportive counseling. Expect a judgment-free, patient-centered approach focused on your long-term success.

Hobbies

I’m a proud dog mom to Tony, my playful chocolate lab. I love Zumba, binge-watching reality TV, and wandering through Costco and Ikea. Scary movies are a year-round favorite, but Christmas brings out my festive spirit. One of my favorite traditions is making arepas with my family—doughy hands, music, and lots of laughter.
