Lisa Dorfman, CSSD, Coral Gables, FL | Dietitian

About Lisa Dorfman

Performance isn't just physical. It's psychological, nutritional, and deeply personal. I'm one of the few practitioners who sits at the intersection of all three — as a Board-Certified Specialist in Sports Dietetics (CSSD), Registered Dietitian, Licensed Mental Health Counselor, and Certified Chef, with 40 years in the field. I work virtually and onsite with pro, collegiate, military, tactical, and everyday high performers who want to train smarter, recover fully, and compete with confidence. Most athletes are told to work on their mindset. Or fix their nutrition. Or push through the injury. Rarely does anyone connect the three — even though performance always lives at that intersection. A fueling problem is often a confidence problem. A confidence problem is often a nervous system problem. And a nervous system problem doesn't resolve with a meal plan alone, or talk therapy alone. It takes both, working together. Where I help: - Performance anxiety, focus & motivation — Building the mental skills to perform consistently, not just on your best days - Fueling, hydration & body composition — Evidence-based nutrition strategies built around your sport, not a generic template - Injury rehab, return-to-play & burnout — Supporting the physical and psychological road back after setback or overtraining - RED-S, overtraining & safe weight management — Identifying energy deficiency early, before it compromises health or performance - Athletic transitions — collegiate, elite, retirement — Navigating identity shifts that come with every new stage of an athletic career - Trauma that's quietly affecting performance — Resolving what's underneath the block, even when it doesn't look like an obvious mental health issue I believe every athlete has the capacity to grow, heal, and reach their full potential. My role is to help you get there — with a plan built for you, not a template built for anyone.
