About Selena
Hi there! My name is Selena, and I've been working as a Registered Dietitian since 2018. My passion is to help others realize the power of nutrition and how to incorporate that into their lives in the most sustainable way possible. I love having conversations about life and how food impacts your day to day physical, mental and emotional health. I believe knowledge is power and will strive to help patients and their family understand their disease or diagnosis and how food can help control/minimize symptoms. We will always work together as a team and my goal is to make a comfortable and educative atmosphere in order to prioritize you and your health. I can't wait to meet you!
Approach to care
I'd like to create a nonjudgmental and safe space where you feel heard, valued, and supported, no matter where you are in your health journey. Together, we work toward sustainable changes that promote long-term wellness and vitality. I want to help cheer you on and unlock your full potential to embrace health and food in a nourishing way.
Your first session with Selena
First sessions are so exciting! It takes a lot to start on this journey and I'm so glad that you've taken the leap. This first session is going to revolve around getting to know each other. I'll ask you about your health history, current dietary habits, and any specific goals or challenges you may have to help come up with a customized nutrition plan that fits your life. You'll have the opportunity to ask questions and share any concerns you might have about the process.
