Patient reviews
“Zhaleh is exceptional. I recently started trying to focus on repairing my mental health and ironically, Zhaleh ended up doing more for my mental than my therapist ever has. Zhaleh helps you set realistic goals by meeting you where you are at and is beyond understanding while still giving you the tools to succeed as well as holding you accountable for using them. “

About Zhaleh
Hello and welcome to my page! I am a Registered Dietitian and Certified Diabetes Care and Education Specialist with over 25 years of experience. I have recently obtained a Master's Degree in Health Psychology and plan to enroll in school to pursue a Master's degree in Counseling, as I firmly believe that mindset plays a crucial role in achieving personal health goals. My primary aim is to support you in reaching your goals by fostering small, sustainable behavior changes that lead to the establishment of lasting healthy habits.
Approach to care
I believe that diet mentality does not work and try to help establish a space where food has no moral value. My goal is to assist my clients in creating a safe judgement free zone where we explore small behavior changes to create healthy new habits.
Your first session with Zhaleh
During our first session, my goal is to create an inviting and comfortable environment where you feel free to discuss your health concerns and goals. I listen empathetically and will do my best to assist you in achieving the goals you set for yourself.
