“I was so happy that I found Melisa to work with. She is such a wonderful RD and helped me tremendously. Because of her not only do I better understand my body and my health, but my knowledge of nutrition and health has changed. I will forever be grateful to her for giving me the skills and knowledge I need to lead a healthier life. She is caring and compassionate while maintaining a professional attitude. She also made it possible for me to personalize my program and encouraged me to do so. I cannot recommend her more- and will definitely be seeking her guidance again. ”

About Melisa Karabeyoglu
My mission is to support my clients and readers in healing and strengthening a healthy relationship with food and improving their physical health.
Like many dietitians and athletes, I once believed food required strict control to be beautiful, slender, and strong. Constant dieting, yo-yoing weights, detoxing before shoots, and then going wild on weekends made me realize I was disconnected from my body, appetite, and emotional needs.
I’m grateful to have experienced diet culture firsthand because it enables me to help you abolish harmful practices and become independent. You can be your own nutritionist. Now I want to show you how.
My philosophy is that discipline, paired with accurate information and an open heart, is key to success. Keeping an open heart helps you connect to your hunger and internal cues. Then you can achieve your goals. When you find your inner power and motivation, “challenges” become “learning experiences,” and “frustration” becomes “development and power to take action.” I empower the most important aspect of weight loss/management: YOUR MIND.
Are you ready to rediscover health rooted in nourishment, not deprivation? Through virtual one-on-one sessions, I help clients make positive, sustainable changes in diet and lifestyle.
I begin with a 90-minute initial session to get to know each other and uncover your relationship with food and your body. I explore your current, past, and developing food relationships to unravel the “why” behind your eating concerns.
I hold a Master’s in Nutrition Science from City University of New York, Brooklyn College, and a Bachelor’s from Johns Hopkins University. This education, combined with personal experience, equips me to guide you effectively on your health and wellness journey.
