Diabetes Nutritionists and Dietitians in Brooklyn, NY

As a seasoned dietitian & someone who has worked in a variety of settings, I have learned that anyone can go on a diet and lose weight, but can they keep it off? There is no one-size-fits all approach that works for everyone. When changing one's diet, to be successful, it must be a lifestyle change. Are you ready to see results? Are you ready to stop yo-yo dieting? If so, then I can help. With my individualized, customized approach to your health I can show you how to lose weight for good.

Hello! I’m Leen and I am a Registered Dietitian and Licensed Dietitian Nutritionist in the states of Illinois and Maryland. My interest in nutrition began in my teenage years where I struggled with my relationship with food and maintaining my health. I became passionate about the nutrition field and completed a Bachelor of Science and Nutrition at the University of Illinois at Chicago. My dietetic internship included a variety of inpatient and outpatient settings that were dedicated to counseling individuals and helping them maintain nutritional health.

Can you relate to the following? You’re preoccupied with thinking about what you’ve eaten and what you’ll eat later. You obsess over what you can and can’t let yourself have. You don’t keep sweets or chips at home because you fear you’ll eat them all. You’re frustrated with feeling uncomfortable in your body and always feel that you are fighting against it. You’re tired of dieting, but don’t know how else to eat... I know what you’re going through. I’ve been there myself and I have worked with hundreds of people to help them develop healthy relationships with food and their bodies.

With over a decade as a dietitian and 7 of those years specializing in functional medicine, my experiences have shaped me into the dietitian I am today. My passion lies in helping people with chronic issues find relief with the power of nutrition and lifestyle changes. I enjoy working with individuals with GI issues, food sensitivities/intolerances, autoimmune disorders, hormone imbalance, thyroid issues, adrenal fatigue, and a variety of other health issues. I completed my training as an Integrative and Functional Nutrition Certified Practitioner through the Integrative and Functional Nutrition Academy in 2017.

As a dietitian for over 19 years, I have helped a wide range of clients from pediatrics to geriatrics. I have specialized in bariatrics (weight loss surgery- sleeve, bypass, lap band) for the last 5 years providing medical clearances and long term follow up to ensure lasting success. I believe in the medicinal value of food and focus my efforts on the inclusion verse the exclusion of foods. Although changing ones eating habits can be challenging, dietary changes should not cause stress or feelings of deprivation. My goal is to help my clients adjust their food choices to achieve their health goals safely.

You are not alone! I can help you simplify eating, get rid of food "rules," and help you find joy, balance, and health for your ADHD brain!
