You’re smart, driven, and committed to your health — but your energy, digestion, hormones, and stress response aren’t keeping up with the life you’re living. What you did in your 20s to stay in shape is not working anymore. You’ve tried to push through, optimize or “be healthier,” yet something still feels off.

Many high-achieving professionals are dealing with complex, persistent symptoms — fatigue, brain fog, lowered resilience, sleep issues, mood swings— yet they still can’t get clear answers from conventional care. They’re told everything looks “normal,” or that it’s simply part of aging. But they don’t feel normal — and they’re not willing to accept “I’m just getting older” as the explanation. 

I BRIDGE THAT GAP

About me

I wasn’t always a functional wellness practitioner. Before launching my practice, I spent years in high-pressure environments — first as a lawyer and investment banker, and later as a chef in Michelin-starred kitchens and private settings for high-performing New York City families.

I know what it feels like to live at full speed, trying to excel in every role while sensing something is out of alignment. And that realization is what ultimately brought me into the world of functional health.

Becoming a mother of two only amplified the pressures many of my clients now share: the expectation to perform at a high level while feeling that their body (and mind!) isn’t keeping up.

My passion has always been the same — understanding systems, solving complex problems, and helping people feel their best. I’m a research nerd and lifelong learner; when something doesn’t make sense, I go deep. That instinct has guided every chapter of my career, and today it allows me to support clients with clarity, precision, and genuine care.

My work draws on all the paths I’ve walked:

  • The analytical training of a lawyer and investment banker

  • The discipline, creativity, and sensory intelligence of a chef

  • The ability to care for busy clients with high standards

  • The lived experience of navigating stress, ambition, and burnout in New York City

  • A spiritual perspective that reminds me healing is both science and self-awareness

Professionally, I am a Board-Certified Holistic Nutrition Consultant (NANP) and a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner (FDN-P), trained in advanced functional testing, including the GI-MAP and DUTCH.

My approach is structured and thorough. I blend science, data, lived experience, and intuition to help clients restore their energy, clarity, digestion, hormones, and overall sense of well-being.

My tools: diet, lifestyle, functional labs, and supplementation.

My goal: that you experience whole-body balance and sustainable, long-term results.

Contact Me

  • “It is not easy to come along with someone who knows nutrition and has the intuition to understand the lifestyle of her clients. Elena has the patience to walk you through new and exciting ways to improve your health and better your eating habits. I was given practical tools and delicious, easy-to-make recipes at home. All of these new habits allow me to achieve my health goals. Many thanks, Elena, for sharing your knowledge with me.”

    — Adrian Bueno. NY

  • “Elena was kind, patient, supportive, and knowledgeable. Being a fellow Harlem working mom, she also understood the challenges of having little to no downtime while trying to incorporate lifestyle diet changes. She'd always made herself available and even helped me plan for a work trip to ensure I could find things to eat despite being away from my kitchen and routines. I have great brand recommendations and am not fooled by mislabeling. My body now craves greens and protein instead of sugar and carbs!. I've learned so much from Elena and feel confident that I can now maintain my new relationship with food.”

    — Stephanie P. NY

  • “Working with Elena has helped me completely redefine my relationship with food. She has guided and empowered me into making changes to my habits and my lifestyle that go beyond of what I eat; I’ve made these changes not because I have to but because I choose to and because it makes so much sense! Her secret power: a ton of empathy backed with deep knowledge, care, and a passion for what she does. You won’t be overwhelmed measuring food or dealing with crazy restrictions; her motto: ‘food is information,’ and once you truly understand what that means, you simply become aware of what you put in your mouth.”

    — Mariana Aguirre. NY

  • “Thank you for giving me a part of my life back that I thought was lost. I was always a healthy person and am excited to become that person again.”

    — Aja G. NY
