About Rachelle

Hi! I'm Rachelle, California based Registered Dietitian with 15+ years of providing medical nutrition therapy to both the adult and pediatric populations. I completed my Bachelor's degree in Nutrition Science at the University of Nevada Las Vegas (2009) and completed my internship through Cal Poly Pomona (2010). I am a Certified Specialist in Pediatrics and Certified Nutrition Support Clinician. I have spent most of my career as a clinical dietitian at a community hospital where I provide care in the pediatric/pediatric ICU/adult ICU settings. I have an extensive background in medical nutrition therapy.

Approach to care

Nutrition is not a one-size-fits-all. A lot of the information provided on the web often confuses individuals. I use an evidence-based, patient-centered approach. Whether you are trying to manage your own health or your child's, I am here to support, guide, and motivate every step of the way. Nutrition is not only about food--it's your lifestyle.

Your first session with Rachelle

It is all about YOU (or your child) during the first session. During this time, we will spend time building rapport. I want to learn about you (or your child), your lifestyle, and what your goals and expectations are. All this information will help me develop an effective plan that is tailored for you. I will ask plenty of questions that include your medical background, medications, diet plans that you have tried, eating habits, etc. You may share anything else that you feel will be pertinent to our sessions together.
