About Rebecca Donnenberg

Rebecca initially became interested in nutrition as a young ballet dancer. Properly fueling your body in a healthy and balanced way was crucial to the artistic sport, and she gained her first experience in this profession through that passion. When she decided to retire from the “Ballet World,” obtaining her Bachelor's degree in Dietetics and Nutrition from The University of Texas at Austin was an easy and fun transition! She loves the impact that everyday choices can have and enjoys empowering others to make those positive changes. Rebecca's nutrition career has spanned many years of both inpatient and outpatient care. Before joining the Culina Health team, she worked at a Level 1 trauma center, a teaching hospital, and most recently, a large cancer institute. She holds a specialty degree in oncology and enjoys supporting this population through some of their hardest moments. Rebecca believes that food can be our medicine for many ailments while also being enjoyable at the same time. This provider is not licensed in the states of NY, TX, CT, or WA.

Rebecca is excellent and I have enjoyed working with her! She has been helpful and provides supportive guidance throughout the process and sets what are essentially “smart” goals with me that are manageable in smaller increments instead of drastic changes that aren’t sustainable for long term health.
