Nutritionists and Dietitians in Fort Lauderdale, FL

As a dietitian who practices with a non-diet and individualized approach, I recognize there are physiological, psychological and behavioral components to the relationship with food. I utilize principles of mindfulness, Intuitive Eating and Health at Every Size (HAES) for individualized nutrition therapy. Reaching out can evoke many emotions and my job is to collaboratively help you heal your relationship with food in a space that is free of judgment. I believe that by working together, you can become empowered to find sustainability to nourish your mind, body and soul.

I am a functional nutritionist who educates people on the benefits of eating certain foods. As a nutritionist, my main focus is helping women with thyroid problems and auto-immune conditions. I once desperately needed help and didn't know nutrition would be my last hope. Thyroid problems can drain you. Everything goes wrong when the thyroid is out of sync with the rest of the body. It's not only the hair that falls. It's the energy that leaves the body—the lack of sleep. The body weight either goes up or down. Even the body temperature becomes an issue. Nutritionists are trained to help people find the proper nutrients.

My ideal client is ready to change and has a positive expectancy of becoming healthy. They may be challenged with high blood sugar, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, digestive issues, fatigue, or choosing a healthy pregnancy or simply weight management for a positive life event such as a wedding. I have good success with people who are gluten sensitive or experiencing auto-immune issues. I enjoy helping clients who own personal responsibility for their bodies and well being, are not enamored of the idea of medication dependency and who have not been well-helped in the past by traditional medical approaches.

Health is not everything, but everything is nothing without health! I am a Doctor of Holistic Nutrition, Certified Functional Medicine Practitioner, and a Certified Nutrition Specialist licensed in Florida. For the past 15 years I have been engaged in functional and integrative medicine research, mostly focused on cancer and autoimmune disorders. In my work I always combine functional medicine principles with my nutrition knowledge and research experience.
