Hello! I’m Jelisa, a registered dietitian/nutritionist with over 5 years of experience at the IWK Health Centre in Halifax, Nova Scotia. I specialize in pediatric and adolescent nutrition, helping kids and young adults develop a healthy relationship with food and supporting their unique nutrition needs. I also offer personalized nutrition guidance for women dealing with health concerns such as Endometriosis, chronic pelvic pain, and bowel issues. In addition to my work with children and teens, I provide sports nutrition advice to help young athletes with fueling their bodies.
I also specialize in eating disorder recovery, particularly with adolescents, offering support through Family-Based Treatment (FBT) and helping families manage re-nourishing and weight restoration. My approach is holistic and compassionate, focusing on sustainable, practical nutrition strategies that promote both physical and mental well-being.
Whether you’re a parent looking to support your child’s nutrition, a woman managing health challenges, I’m here to guide you toward your goals. Book a free 15-minute discovery call to see if we’re a good fit! Direct billing is available for various insurance providers, and I accept Visa/Mastercard. Insurance receipts are provided after each session.
