Hi, I'm Briana Adler Gelfand, MS, RD, CDE, CDN

I am a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN) and Certified Diabetes Educator (CDE), specializing in the care of individuals with diabetes, renal disease, cardiovascular conditions, and a variety of other health concerns. I also work with those who are looking to optimize their health, prevent disease, and nourish their bodies during pregnancy and the postnatal period.

My approach is centered on the belief that food is a powerful tool for healing. Having personally struggled with digestive issues, I understand how transformative proper nutrition can be in supporting wellness. Rather than prescribing a rigid, restrictive diet, I focus on a more sustainable, holistic approach. I believe that eliminating entire food groups can often make things worse, which is why I work with you to enhance your current eating habits, not restrict them.

Together, we'll focus on incorporating nutrient-dense foods that stabilize blood sugar, increase energy, and help you feel satisfied. During our sessions, I’ll provide the resources and guidance you need to make informed, realistic choices—so you can improve your health without compromising your lifestyle.
