About Krizelle

After earning my BS in Nutrition and Dietetics in Manila, Philippines, I’ve spent nine years working as a Registered Dietitian in clinical and hospital settings. That hands-on experience taught me how to interpret lab work and collaborate with medical teams, which helps me tailor plans that are safe and realistic. Based in Chula Vista, I love translating science into practical steps we can try together. When I’m not working I enjoy cooking, traveling, and staying active through fitness and wellness pursuits, and I bring that same curiosity and practicality to helping patients build sustainable habits.

Approach to care

I blend current research with a Health At Every Size (HAES) lens, focusing on behaviors and wellbeing rather than weight. Together we'll turn evidence-based recommendations into clear, manageable steps that fit your life. I aim to be warm and nonjudgmental while staying direct and action-oriented, so you get practical strategies and accountability. I also prioritize education and a holistic view, addressing sleep, stress, movement, and food so you can learn skills that support long-term, sustainable change.

Your first session with Krizelle

We will begin by reviewing your medical history and any lab work or biometrics you have, then take a deep dive into your current eating habits, lifestyle, and your relationship with food. This is a judgment-free conversation, so you do not need to have everything figured out beforehand. Together we’ll identify short-term, realistic goals and a few practical steps you can try right away. You won’t be handed an impossible plan, we’ll adjust as we go so changes feel manageable and sustainable.
