About Marisa
Hi, I’m Marisa, a Denver, Colorado based Registered Dietitian with 13 years of experience helping people reach their nutrition and health goals. I have a degree in Nutrition and Food Sciences and have practiced in hospital settings, dialysis, and outpatient care. Outside of work, I enjoy baking, teaching dance fitness, and spending time with my family.
Approach to care
My care philosophy is evidence based, empathetic, and collaborative. I stay current with science and translate it into practical, sustainable plans. We’ll work together to identify small, doable steps that fit your life and your pace. I take a holistic view, honoring mind, body, sleep, and stress, so you can build lasting habits with confidence. I also specialize in nutrition related to kidney disease including ESRD and CKD with 11 years of experience focused on renal nutrition therapy.
Your first session with Marisa
Our first appointment is a zero pressure conversation about you and your goals. We'll review your medical history, discuss your goals and what has or hasn’t worked before. This is a collaborative space where you can be honest and curious. You don’t need to have every detail ready; we’ll normalize that this is the start of a process. By the end, we’ll set a couple of short term goals and outline practical steps we can begin together to reach your goals. I look forward to meeting with you and supporting you through your health journey!
