Suren is a registered dietitian with experiences in the fitness industry, corporate wellness, inpatient, outpatient, and eating disorders. Obtaining her training through UChicago Ingalls Memorial, Suren focuses on helping her clients develop healthy relationships with food. She likes to target stress eating, emotional eating, and how to help clients feel confident about their food choices. 

Navigating away from calorie counting, she uses a weight-inclusive approach that doesn’t focus on weight as a main parameter for health.

Problem-solving with clients to create ways to eat in a healthy sustainable way, her approaches consider lifestyle, culture, work-life balance, and other factors that can pose challenges to food choices.
