Riley Shapiro

About Riley

I’m Riley, a Los Angeles–based Registered Dietitian! I work with all ages - from kids to older adults - helping people make realistic, lasting changes that fit their lives. With a multicultural background, I understand that food is more than fuel - it’s tradition, celebration, and connection. The meals you love and the ways you gather are shaped by your culture and experiences, and I honor those roots so any changes you make feel authentic, respectful, and truly your own.

Approach to care

My style is supportive, collaborative, and free of judgment. I’ll meet you where you are and help you take manageable steps toward your goals - no step is too small. We’ll focus on what you can add, not only what to limit, so your changes feel positive and sustainable. My role is to give you the tools, knowledge, and accountability you need to reach your goals!

Your first session with Riley

Our first session is about getting to know you. We’ll talk about your goals, health history, and day-to-day life, as well as what matters most to you when it comes to food. From there, we’ll outline a few simple, achievable changes you can start right away - steps that feel realistic, not overwhelming. You’ll leave with a clear path forward and the reassurance that you have a partner in your journey.
