Lisbeth Santiago Mercedes, RD

Hi, I'm Lisbeth, a Registered Dietitian who knows firsthand how exhausting the cycle of restrictive diets and unrealistic expectations can be. Over time, I've learned that taking care of your health doesn't have to mean following another set of strict food rules or trying to be perfect.\

\

Today, I love helping people move away from the all or nothing mindset and find an approach to nutrition that actually works for their lives. Whether you're looking to improve your relationship with food, manage your weight, or navigate a chronic condition I'm here to help you make changes that feel realistic and sustainable.\

\

As a Dominican and Puerto Rican dietitian 🇵🇷🇩🇴, I also believe that your favorite cultural foods absolutely have a place in a healthy eating pattern. Yes, that includes rice and beans, plantains, and viandas!\

\

Outside of work, you'll usually find me running, going for a walk, or at the gym.

​

During our first session, we'll take the time to understand the bigger picture, including your medical history, eating habits, lifestyle, and what's been working (or not working) for you. I'll share what I'm noticing from a nutrition perspective, and together we'll identify where to start and set realistic goals that fit your life. You don't need to have everything figured out before we meet. That's what we're here to work on together!
