About Sofia
Sofia's passion for nutrition began in her first year of college at CSU Chico. She developed a love for weight training and became deeply interested in the role that nutrition plays in physical performance as well as general health and well-being. Sofia spent much of her college years focusing on sports nutrition in addition to intuitive eating and the HAES approach. She has been practicing dietetics throughout the state of NY as well as her home state CA over the last 5 years with more focus on clinical nutrition for patients struggling with blood sugar management, renal disease, lowering cholesterol, etc. When Sofia is not working, you can find her traveling, going to music festivals, or even cuddling with her cat Roxy at home.
Approach to care
Sofia believes that when we feel our best and healthiest, we show up better in all aspects of our lives. Sofia's approach is geared towards sustainability and long-term habit formation. She also believes in the importance of healing our relationships with food in order to rid ourselves of the ever-so-common binge and restrict cycle!
Your first session with Sofia
In our first session, we will discuss your primary goals as well as any barriers that stand in the way of those goals. I will develop a well-rounded understanding of who you are and how nutrition and general health fits into your life. We will end the session with at least one measurable objective to work on and follow up with in our next session.
