Willande Unelus, MA, RD, LDN, CHN
Licensed Registered Dietitian Nutritionist
Having a lot of experience and knowledge in cultural nutrition has motivated me to work with clients in that area of nutrition. I aim to support clients who really value their cultural foods as they work on improving health issues like diabetes, gut problems, weight concerns, high blood pressure, or just staying healthy long term. I have over 20 years of experience in traditional Haitian cooking which provides me with the experience to support individuals in that space. As a nutrition therapist, making connections with individuals from different cultural backgrounds are essential in helping people. I work with individuals from all income status because we all need nutrition support, so we can make life a little more flavorful.
