About Norma
I am a nutrition professional with 25 yrs experience in supporting individuals managing chronic health conditions, recovery and overall food challenges. I am also a wife, a mom, and the cook in my house. I was raised in Mexico where food is at the center of life. I received my degree from University of Arizona and stuck around to build a bicultural family and career. No one is born knowing how food works and what to eat. Moreover, how to shop and prepare healthy meals whilst keeping within time and budgetary constraints. We just know what we like and what we don’t like. As with everything; it takes learning from someone else, and passing the knowledge down. That’s what I’m here for. I focus on simplifying healthy eating in a way that feels approachable, and sustainable. I empower individuals with practical tools and insight, fostering a mindful relationship with food that supports finding beauty in the journey, and nourishing balance in the everyday for long-term well-being.
Approach to care
I believe in helping clients understand how food can support their health without overwhelming concepts or drastic change. I provide doable tips, tricks, and solutions within the struggles of everyday life to be able to reach those milestones, and building on those to lead you to reach your ultimate goal
Your first session with Norma
