Meet the Dietitian

Melissa Osterberg, MS, RDN, LD, Florida licensed and Registered Dietitian-Nutritionist who specializes in nutritional therapy and dietary education. Melissa is trained in specialized diets for specific disease states, as well as weight management. She is opposed to fad diets that complicate eating, making them impossible to follow long-term. Melissa takes an evidence-based approach to nutrition and looks for the least restrictive diet to accomplish her clients' wellness goals. Melissa is committed to forming relationships with her clients to create individualized self-driven plans to manage weight or to control chronic illness through lifestyle adjustments. 

​

"I had spent much of my adult life eating whatever I wanted, whenever I wanted when I finally woke up one morning and realized that a change was needed for the sake of my health. I was at a loss on how to alter my eating habits, I just knew I had to.  Then, I began working with Melissa.  She helped me realize the importance of vegetables and protein in a well balanced diet.  I started  keeping a food journal and saw the areas where I was falling short.  Besides the diet coaching, she also provided me with articles pertaining to my dietary needs, new recipes when I became bored with my meal choices, always using foods that I liked. As a yoga instructor, Melissa also offered me exercise options to increase my metabolism and target areas of concern that I had.

Melissa Osterberg is an outstanding nutritionist and encompasses full body health in her sessions.  I would highly recommend Melissa to anyone who is interested in making changes towards a more healthy lifestyle."
