Hi, I'm Martha

NYC-Based Registered Dietitian & Certified Diabetes Care & Education Specialist.

I’ve spent over 20 years helping thousands of clients who felt exactly the way you do right now, confused, frustrated, and wondering if they’ll ever find an approach that actually works. I’ve heard the same story again and again: “My body changed seemingly overnight. My numbers keep getting worse, even though I think I’m being healthy. What worked in my 30s suddenly stopped working. I don’t understand what’s happening.”

I believe you deserve more than generic advice, frustration over being dismissed, and restrictive diets. You deserve a licensed and experienced nutrition professional who takes the time to understand your unique situation, investigates the “why” behind what’s not working, and partners with you to create a plan that fits your real life. But more than my credentials, what sets me apart is my approach. I’m known as a health detective who loves solving the puzzle of why previous approaches haven’t worked for you.

Here's how we'll work together to get you real, lasting results.

I've refined my process over 20 years, and it's designed to uncover what others miss. We take the time to do this right because you deserve solutions that actually work.​

STEP ONE

Investigate & Understand

We start with a comprehensive assessment of your health history, labs, symptoms, lifestyle, and goals. I’ll dig deep to understand what you’ve tried before and why it didn’t work. Think of me as a health detective using evidence-based methods to uncover root causes, not just treat symptoms.

STEP TWO

Create Your Personalized Strategy

My approach is integrative and science-based, combining personalized nutrition with an understanding of your unique body, health conditions, and lifestyle. I focus on adding nourishing habits that support sleep, stress management, behavior change, and targeted supplementation. There are no restrictive rules or one-size-fits-all plans, only sustainable strategies that fit your real life.

STEP THREE

Implement with Ongoing Support

You’ll have direct access to me between sessions for questions and adjustments. We’ll track your progress and refine your plan until it fits your body and lifestyle. I offer the convenience of virtual nutrition sessions. I’m with you every step of the way. You are not alone.

Feel vibrant, energized, & in control again.

This is what becomes possible when you finally have a plan designed for your unique body. You’ll see the numbers change, better blood sugar, improved cholesterol, balanced hormones, and reduced inflammation. But what really transforms is how you feel every single day.

You’ll have the energy to show up fully for the life you want, whether that’s traveling without worry, keeping up with your grandchildren, feeling comfortable in social settings, or simply waking up feeling like yourself again.

And here’s what matters most: you’ll finally feel empowered and in control. You’ll know, without question, that you deserve this level of care and that your body has been worthy of it all along.

Working with Martha for three months helped me reach my weight loss goals while building lifelong healthy habits. Her recommendations were personalized, practical, and easy to fit into my daily life. She is incredibly knowledgeable, kind, and supportive. Thanks to Martha, I’ve regained my confidence and feel set up for long-term success.

But here's what happens if nothing changes.

I need to be honest with you about what happens if you keep doing what you’ve been doing. That prediabetes diagnosis? It may progress to type 2 diabetes. Those concerning cholesterol numbers? They inch closer to requiring medication, or more medication. The window for prevention closes a little more each month, and what could be addressed now through personalized nutrition may soon require interventions you were hoping to avoid. 

And the emotional weight gets heavier. You’ll lie awake at night worrying about your health future. You’ll feel that sinking disappointment every time another approach doesn’t work. You’ll start to believe that maybe you’re the problem, that maybe your body is just broken, that maybe this is as good as it gets.

But that's not true. And deep down, you know it.

I was referred to Martha by my longtime GI doctor after we ran out of medical options. She is knowledgeable, attentive, organized, and nonjudgmental. I’ve seen a big improvement in my symptoms after following Martha’s advice. Her follow-up is excellent, and I trust her recommendations completely.
