She went on to complete her Clinical Dietetic Internship at London Health Sciences Centre. Cristina has served in several roles ‘all things nutrition’ including recipe development and nutritional commentary for T.V. Chefs. She has worked in a variety of areas in the community including Long Term Care, Community Health Centres and Diabetes Education Centres and has found she servers best when able to offer the time & attention clients require and now owns and operates Praxis Nutrition & Wellbeing, where she can do just that.
The power of nutrition is the primary focus –“I ‘skill people up’ on how to make informed decisions regarding how people feed their body and mind; viewing physical activity as celebration; and, empowering them to live their best life with their desired quality of health”.
Cris’ areas of expertise are positive habitual change; chronic disease prevention and management; digestive health; healthy weights and positive body image; emotional eating; diabetes, combating stress/fatigue; and, motivational interviewing/empowerment coaching.
She finds great joy in exploring an individual’s health journey; deciding what their desired state of health looks/feels like; and then, identifying and executing the steps that would most effectively take them there with confidence, joy, and lasting success.
