Mindful Eating Nutritionists and Dietitians in Minnesota

I am not accepting new clients at this time. My goal is to walk beside you on your journey to feeling better about meeting your unique nutritional needs. My hope is to help you reconnect with your body by identifying hunger and fullness cues, helping to manage critical thoughts about food or checking in on your grocery list. We can partner together to address your concerns to allow you to feel better physically and mentally so you can rebuild, strengthen and enjoy your relationship with food. My approach includes prescriptive, intuitive and mindful eating.

I believe that nutrition encompasses all areas of health. What we eat and how we approach food can provide our bodies, minds and spirit with a balanced way of life. Food is nourishing and purposeful, but also enjoyable and fun. When our relationships with food become emotional, disconnected, or physically challenging, we need to find our way back to balancing the power of food and it's role in our lives. My approach is to be compassionate and encouraging, and to hold accountability in order to motivate, and provide opportunities to develop strategies that focus on your personal needs.

Feeling frustrated on your weight loss journey? Do you just want to look and feel better? We help women, men and athletes achieve their health, performance and body composition goals (fat loss, build muscle) without giving up their favorite foods!

It's my passion to help guide my clients on their path towards their most vibrant, optimal state of health - whatever that means for them! In my practice, we’ll work to discover the underlying root cause of your health concerns and collaboratively guide you towards better well-being of the mind, body and spirit through highly individualized diet and lifestyle therapies.

We invite you to work with us if you have tried everything and seen everyone yet still struggle to get results. If you have been told you are just fine, or it's in your head, yet still struggle with symptoms we are here to help you. You are ready to invest in YOU to optimize how you feel and function on a daily basis and get those results you have been working so hard to achieve. You are ready and willing to commit the time and energy to make the proper adjustments in your nutrition and lifestyle to optimize your digestive system, hormone balance, energy & sleep, and weight.

As a registered dietitian, my goal is to help my clients develop a healthy and peaceful relationship with food. Whether it’s how food was talked about in your family growing up, messages from social media or feedback and advice from well-intentioned friends, there is likely an overwhelming amount of nutrition information available to you. How do you know what’s right, factual or most appropriate for you? My goal is to help un-complicate this information with an anti-diet and individualized approach to help you address your nutrition related concerns and make eating easier.

Hi, I'M ELENA. A dietitian, board certified specialist in sports nutrition, ex-pro athlete, intuitive eating expert, lover of all things natural for your health and an unshakable optimist dedicated to helping you become the person you most want to be.

I'm passionate about helping individuals develop & maintain a peaceful relationship with food. I whole-heartedly believe that proper nutrition plays an important role in keeping one’s mind and body functioning to the best of its abilities, but that it doesn’t need to be as complicated as society might lead one to believe. I believe in an "all foods fit" approach and will strive to help you optimize your nutritional intake while honoring your body's hunger cues & genuine cravings. I'm a Health At Every Size RD and focus on behaviors with food over the number on the scale - because there is so much more to health than what you weigh!

I work with adults looking to take a food-first approach to balance hormones, optimize fertility, improve gut issues, support autoimmunity, increase energy, and reduce cravings, aches, and pains. While trained in functional nutrition, I focus on treating the whole person with not only nutrition, but other evidence-based health practices such as movement, stress management, and sleep hygiene to address root causes. My goal is to leave you with less confusion and cravings, and more energy to live your life day-to-day, confidence in your ability to maintain your health, and excitement around food!

My nutrition philosophy is unique in that I focus on providing evidence-based, individualized nutrition recommendations focusing on moderation, variety, and how to fit patients' favorite foods into a healthy eating lifestyle. This can improve quality of life for many individuals who feel they must restrict certain foods to be healthy or lose weight. In addition, I have a special passion for working with individuals with eating disorders, athletes/dancers, weight management, and GI conditions/food allergies. I look forward to supporting you in your nutrition and health journey.

Are you feeling overwhelmed by all the different messages in the media around nutrition and exercise? Does it feel like all the information you’re exposed to just leaves you feeling confused, defeated, or frustrated? Are you finding your thoughts around food and your body are taking up more space in your mind than you would like? Are you looking for guidance on how to nourish your body with nutrition and movement in a way that works individually for you, while taking into account all the factors that make you unique? If you relate to any of the above, I am happy you are here :)

What we put into our bodies ultimately affects how we feel and how healthy our body is... I often compare our bodies to an engine of a vehicle. When working well...all is good...when not working well, it can be a crisis! We can drive around in our vehicle when its making funny sounds or random lights are on telling us something isn't quite right, but... if we do this too long, our vehicles stop running and then we have a crisis! Our health and bodies are no different......

Building a relationship with food and your body can feel overwhelming. With such a wide variety of sources and information, it can be difficult to determine who to trust. Nutrition is not "one-size-fits-all." It is my aim as a clinician to listen, learn, and provide individualized recommendations to support your goals.

I specialize in evolutionary health - using a hunter-gatherer diet, primal exercise, and gut health to lose weight and heal disease. Our ancestors ate mostly meat, fruit, honey, eggs, raw dairy, and some root vegetables for 99% of our evolution and by adopting this historic human diet, we can not only lose weight but also heal autoimmune, digestive, and chronic diseases. I also specialize in gut health which includes killing harmful bacterial and fungal infections in the gut, introducing beneficial bacteria, and healing the gut lining. I am a Licensed Nutritionist, both nationally (CNS) and in the State of MN (LN).
