Your guide to food freedom and eating disorder recovery! If you or a loved one are struggling with an eating disorder, I want you to know that there is help, hope, and healing. Let me come alongside you and guide you to a more balanced, peaceful relationship with 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.

As a licensed physician who works in a functional medicine model, Certified Nutrition Specialist, and health coach, I work with patients with chronic diseases and symptoms to optimize their health and limit their medications through identification and healing of their core health imbalance(s). I see patients who are dealing with a wide variety of symptoms, including fatigue, anxiety and depression, IBS, autoimmune disorders, fibromyalgia, arthritis, leaky gut, menopausal issues, and cancer risk reduction-primary and secondary.

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.

At Cultivate, we are honored to hold space for clients who are finding life a little bit hard. We value client-centered care, creativity, continuous education (for ourselves and our clients), and feeling connected within our practice, the community, and ourselves. We have a particular passion for working with adolescents and young adults, and bridging the gap between higher levels of care and real-life experiences like sharing a living space, grocery shopping, and keeping a budget. We specialize in age-appropriate guidance for those balancing mental health concerns with their first steps into adulthood.

I aim to improve my clientele's relationship with food, regardless of the reason for the sessions. Many times, clients I work with feel preoccupied/obsessed with food and diet culture and are seeking release from this distress. The typical clientele I work with includes those struggling with disordered eating, those looking to gain or lose weight, and those who have concerns about cardiovascular health. I also have a Master of Science degree in Nutrition & Physical Performance and enjoy meeting with athletes to discuss ways to optimize performance through nutritional habits.

With over 30 years in the profession I have come to enjoy working with so many of our friends and neighbors in the northern suburbs. It is so gratifying to help people with their injuries and spinal problems. I have a great love of this profession and the relationships that I have developed.

I am a dietitian who works with individuals looking to explore their relationship with their food and body. I use a weight inclusive, non-diet, and all foods fit approach. I desire to prioritize each individual’s unique needs and values wherever they are at in their healing journey. I encourage individuals to show up as their whole selves as I provide a collaborative space to explore the systems of oppression that influence our relationship with our food and bodies. I intentionally invite LGBTQ+ and gender nonconforming individuals who are seeking nutrition therapy with a clinician who will honor their unique lived experiences.

I see clients on a one-to-one basis, as a family unit, or in a group setting. I believe that no two clients are the same and that there is no one size fits all method for nutrition counseling or education. Each session is catered to the individual's needs. I take a functional and integrative approach to how I educate and counsel. I specialize in bariatric nutrition, food intolerances, gut health, diabetes management, disease prevention, etc. I am comfortable and have worked with individuals age 4 to 94. I stand firm that ALL health conditions could be improved with nutrition. I look at the whole body and have a holistic approach.

I take a client-focused approach and have experience with nutrition counseling, eating disorders, weight management, women's health and sports nutrition. I will work with my client to help them reach their goals and be your biggest cheerleader. I will be there to answer questions, give (honest) feedback and if you want assistance in making lifestyle adjustments, I am your person!

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 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.

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!

From a young age I have had a great interest in massage therapy and its ability to promote within me a positive enhancement of my physical and mental self image. I also feel that it has a strong impact on me in several aspects. I feel that the rewards are amazing knowing that I make difference in the way a person feels mentally,emotionally, spiritually and physically after my sessions. I am passionate about it because I make a difference in people's lives.

In my practice, I am dedicated to empowering individuals to take control of their health by making informed dietary choices. I firmly believe that every person has the potential to achieve and maintain a state of well-being through nutrition. My approach is grounded in empathy, cultural competence, and the belief that dietary changes should be sustainable and enjoyable. I understand the importance of cultural sensitivity and the profound impact it has on dietary habits. Being of East African descent myself, I appreciate the cultural nuances and dietary preferences of the community.

Are you looking for a way to heal not only the symptoms you are experiencing but also the root cause of those symptoms? Traditional Chinese Medicine emphasizes treating both with the use of acupuncture, herbs, and diet and lifestyle advice. These treatment modalities originate from an ancient healing system that has a 5000 year old history. Traditional Chinese Medicine is about balance and harmony, the energetic interplay of yin and yang. It emphasizes treating the mind, body, and spirit.

I am a Registered Dietitian that works with families and individuals to develop strong yet flexible relationships with food.

I work with children, adolescents and adults of all ages and specialize in eating disorders and feeding disorders.
