Hello, I’m Alessandra and I’m a big fan of food and how working on your relationship with it can make you feel awesome! At the core of nutrition counselling is exploring your individual goals for wellbeing. There are no instant fixes or magic beans here (although chickpeas are pretty delicious)! My intention is to support you in your journey at a pace that fits your lifestyle.
Filling your toolbox with food & nutrition skills, strategies, and knowledge for your unique situation is exactly why I became a dietitian in 2014. I’ve had the pleasure of leading cooking workshops and know first hand how life changing it can be to learn basic food skills. Cooking is my passion and one that I’m happy to share if you’re looking to build confidence in the kitchen. I’m here for you whether you want to transition to a plant-based lifestyle, learn about intuitive eating, gain food skills, or manage a chronic condition.
When I’m not meeting with you virtually or in home for a cooking class, you’ll find me on a mountain bike, skiing down a mountain, or enjoying the lake on a paddleboard in my spare time.
