Deepthi Harkar, RD

Hi, I’m Deepthi Harkar, a Registered Dietitian and Licensed Nutritionist with over 10 years of experience guiding clients of all ages toward better health and lasting wellness. I hold an MSc in Foods & Nutrition, a Master’s in Health Promotion, and advanced certifications in preventive and plant-based nutrition. Over the years, I have had the privilege to support individuals from diverse backgrounds in managing diabetes, achieving sustainable weight management, improving digestive health, preparing for bariatric surgery, and embracing culturally tailored, plant-forward eating patterns that honor their heritage and preferences.

​

When we work together, you can expect a positive, motivational, and holistic approach that truly meets you where you are—whether you’re just starting your health journey or looking to refine your habits. I firmly believe that nutrition should seamlessly fit into your lifestyle, culture, and personal tastes. There’s no room for rigid diets or quick fixes here. Instead, my focus is on developing practical, enjoyable strategies that empower you to reach your goals without feeling deprived or overwhelmed. We will build a personalized plan that respects your preferences and celebrates your progress every step of the way.

​

What drives me most is helping you cultivate confidence and sustainable habits that nourish not just your body but your mind and spirit as well. I understand that wellness is about balance—balancing nourishment with pleasure, structure with flexibility, and science with the joy of eating. Through compassionate guidance and evidence-based care, I’m here to support your transformation in a way that feels authentic and achievable.

​

Outside of my professional work, I’m passionate about exploring global food traditions, practicing yoga to maintain balance and mindfulness, and experimenting in the kitchen with plant-based recipes that bring both flavor and nutrition to the table. These personal interests enrich my approach, reminding me daily that food is more than fuel—it’s connection, culture, comfort, and celebration.

​

If you’re ready to embrace a healthier, happier version of yourself through compassionate, personalized nutrition care, I would be honored to support your journey. Together, we can create a path toward wellness that lasts a lifetime.
