Anna creates a welcoming, judgment-free space where patients feel heard, supported, and understood. She doesn’t assume she already knows your story. Instead, she approaches each session with curiosity and genuine interest in your health history, lived experiences, and the behaviors and circumstances that have shaped your relationship with food.
As a Brazilian dietitian, Anna understands that food is never just food. It is culture, identity, tradition, comfort, and connection. She brings a culturally aware lens to nutrition counseling and takes care to offer recommendations that actually fit your life, rather than generic, one-size-fits-all advice.
Whether you grew up eating American foods, foods from your culture, or a mix of both, Anna takes time to understand what matters to you and build a plan that feels realistic, respectful, and supportive of your health goals. Her counseling style is rooted in compassion, practical guidance, and helping patients make sense of their symptoms, patterns, and choices in a way that feels collaborative rather than prescriptive.
My goal is to provide compassionate and evidence-based nutrition care that honors your body, your lived experience, and your cultural food traditions. I strive to create a space where you feel heard, supported, and empowered to take an active role in your care and health journey.
