About the Doctor

Hi, I'm Ilse!!! Nutritionist, health coach and mindful eating practitioner, my purpose is for you to regain confidence in choosing your food with pleasure and awareness and to develop eating habits that allow you to live a life of freedom with food, empowered, honoring your body and health at all times. I am a graduate of the nutrition program at the Instituto Politécnico Nacional (IPN), certified as an Integrative Health Coach by the Institute for Integrative Nutrition in New York (IIN), and a mindfulness-based eating awareness training (MB-EAT) counselor from the mindful eating training institute in California. I have worked for 8 years in nutritional counseling and my goal is to help you build long-term, enjoyable eating habits that take care of your physical and mental health. I am your guide, ally, cheerleader and companion in the process! My treatments are 100% personalized and are based on a mindful eating approach, NOT WEIGHT-FOCUSED, no more restrictive diets — with me you learn to choose with knowledge and awareness, discover the pleasure of food, know your hunger and fullness cues, address cravings compassionately, with nutritional and lifestyle tools you can put into practice every day. For your consultation I will need the following: 1.- If you have a medical diagnosis, bring lab tests (no more than 3 months old, or wait until your consultation and I'll ask you specifically for the necessary tests) 2.- Full willingness and eagerness to learn and change habits. What you will get from my services: 1.- A space of genuine empathy and support, free of judgment, rigid rules and impositions 2.- Setting achievable goals, with strategies based on your needs. 3.- Recipe books with menu ideas. 4.- Educational materials based on up-to-date scientific evidence. 5.- Menu planning and organization tools. 6.- Practice of mindful eating, intuitive eating and psycho-nutrition skills and tools. 7.- Guidance to work on additional habits, for example, low physical activity, low water intake, sleep, among others. 8.- Support and guidance via WhatsApp and email to resolve questions or concerns. Considerations: 1.- I do not prescribe medications. 2.- I do not give restrictive diets, nor do we focus on weight as an indicator of health or progress; my treatments are focused on helping you learn to create long-term eating and lifestyle habits, based on scientific evidence and self-knowledge. 2.- I may recommend food supplements if necessary and I will always explain why and how they will help you. Changing habits can be challenging, I understand you may have doubts, but I want you to know that the simple fact that you are on my profile reading this information is a big step, and it would be a great honor for me to accompany you in the process. You will discover that healthy eating goes beyond fad diets, food restriction or advice from bloggers/influencers on social media that can create the wrong image; it's about discovering yourself and what works for you. At the moment my service is online only. I send you a hug and hope to see you soon in consultation. Ilse
