Hi I am Carmelita! I received my Bachelor of Science from UC Berkeley in Nutritional Sciences- Dietetics. After graduating, I started my career as a Health Coach, then later earned certifications as a Fitness Nutrition Specialist, Group Fitness Instructor, and Registered Dietitian.

As a nutrition scientist and registered dietitian, my goal is to help you pin-point the current challenges you are facing with your health and nutrition. Through remote Telehealth services, we will work together to create actionable steps towards long-term healthy habits. Whether that means understanding how to improve your relationships with food, weight management, fuel exercise performance, finding a meal pattern that improves digestive symptoms, managing chronic disease and more.

I use a functional and integrative model to get to create evidence based and completely personalized nutrition programs. The functional approach allows us to get to the root cause of disease and address the source(s), not just put a bandaid over the symptoms. If you need help with fertility, balancing hormones, blood sugar, fighting fatigue or brain fog, or healing your gut, I can help get you there. Together we will work to make realistic and sustainable changes that optimize your health and cater to your unique biology.

I do not simply attempt to treat symptoms, nor do I treat diseases. I treat people. My focus in practicing TCM is holistic; I seek to understand the entire person and the health pattern they have. As you will hear in the testimonial videos on my website, the feedback I get from my patients speaks not only to the effectiveness of my treatments in getting the results they need, but to the safety, comfort and ease they feel when they come in for their appointments. I am interested in being my patients’ partner in meeting their complete health goals.

I practiced with my father for 5 years before he retired, and I learned from him what really works to get people well. He started practice in 1959 and had a wealth of experience that I learned from. I incoporated that into the latest techniques that I learned at Life Chiropractic College West, an excellent technical school, to get a very well rounded technical expertise.
