About Susana
Hi, I’m Susana (Drea) - a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist with nearly a decade of experience in clinical dietetics, outpatient counseling, and retail nutrition. My interest in nutrition started early, rooted in a natural curiosity about food and its connection to health, but it became personal when I became a mother and saw loved ones struggle with chronic diseases. That’s when I decided to study nutrition. My career path wasn’t a straight shot, and I had many questions along the way—now, I’m here to help you! When I’m not working, you can find me enjoying dessert (balance is key!), working on home projects, or singing duets with my husband.
Approach to care
I believe nutrition is a powerful tool for improving health and overall well-being, but I also know that lasting change takes time. My approach is simple: I meet you where you are, and we take it one step at a time. No drastic changes—just small, realistic steps that fit your lifestyle and goals. We’ll move forward together, at a pace that feels right for you.
Your first session with Susana
In our first session, we’ll have a relaxed, friendly conversation about your health, challenges, and goals. I’ll listen to what’s working for you and what’s not, and together, we’ll create a plan that feels right for you. If you're ready to make steady, small changes and work toward lasting results, we’ll be a great fit! I can’t wait to get started and help you feel your best!
