About Malina

Hi there! I'm a licensed and registered dietitian who is passionate about partnering with patients to create realistic and sustainable lifestyle changes. I have a special interest in supporting individuals who are managing chronic dietary restrictions, informed by over eight years of lived experience with celiac disease. I pride myself of a having a counseling style that allows patients to feel heard, understood, and empowered. I look forward to working with you!

Approach to care

As a dietitian, I ground recommendations in current research and evidence-based guidelines while honoring your lived experience. I'm all about digging deep into your individual goals and motivations and working collaboratively to develop a care plan. We'll set clear, practical steps together, build sustainable habits, and I’ll teach the skills you need so you can make informed choices that fit your whole life.

Your first session with Malina

Expect a relaxed, collaborative conversation where we'll go through your medical history and talk about what matters to you. I want to understand your goals and motivations, and together we'll establish a couple of short-term, manageable goals so you leave with clear next steps. You don't need to have everything figured out beforehand. This is a judgment-free space where we'll work at a pace that feels sustainable and supportive.
