do amazing things

Each of us has a relationship with food that is directly connected to our environment and experiences.

Our nutrition counseling focuses on helping you connect with your innate body wisdom. Being aware and able to understand your own body wisdom is one of the most powerful outcomes of counseling. 

Rasa Nutrition is committed to providing a private and inclusive space so that you have an opportunity to discover your own wellness philosophy. We help you learn how to center yourself and use tools to find authenticity in your nutritional health. Together, we will create a foundation for success and resilience, anchored in nourishment rather than restriction or restraint, to create a sense of belonging and joy.

"Rasa patiently and intelligently guided me not only with my nutrition but also with getting support for my eating disorder.  She has stayed committed to helping me.  Rasa is extremely intelligent, always current on the latest research and explains the science behind her recommendations.  She educates me about nutrition to support my running as well as how to fuel my body for life.."

- L.P., Nutrition Client

"Rasa is a perceptive, compassionate, knowledgeable guide who deftly and sensitively changed decades-long patterns in my relationship to food and to my body. Thank you for helping me

- Nutrition Client

"Rasa helped open my mind, taught me to better feed my body, helped me understand sometimes the body needs a bit of help (supplements), and that nothing will ever be static.  As Rasa said, “inevitably our bodies will change’.  I know now that to expect a ‘fix’ is not the right mindset; to find aids to help you through the twist and turns and be open to adjustments is a better way to think."

"I cannot say enough wonderful things about Rasa! She's truly transformed my relationship with food and nutrition in ways I never thought possible. Her gentle, compassionate approach has helped me to loosen the grip of my eating disorder.

She always meets me exactly where I am. I appreciate her creating a safe space where I feel heard, supported, and never judged. Her guidance has empowered me to discover a strength I didn’t know I had—a strength to choose nourishment over fear, balance over restriction, and self-compassion over self-criticism.

Rasa doesn’t just provide education; she offers a partnership in healing. Her tailored strategies, practical advice, and unwavering encouragement have allowed me to rebuild my confidence around food. I am finally able to see food as fuel, joy, and connection instead of a source of anxiety.

If you’re looking for someone who will walk beside you every step of the way, listen with empathy, and celebrate your victories no matter how small, look no further than Rasa. She's is truly a gift, and I will always be grateful for the life-changing impact she has had on my journey."

- Nutrition Client

I acknowledge and value that each of us brings a unique culture and history forward with us as we grow. I recognize you as a unique individual and am honored to work with you. I will respect your culture, identity, and significance.

I am constantly learning and unlearning in order to provide nutrition counseling in a weight and health-consumed world that promotes harmful nutritional ideologies, fitness information and marginalizes humans based on their size, weight, sexual orientation, ability, health, race, sex, age, and cultural backgrounds.

“Dear Rasa, it has been an enjoyable experience to work with you over the past year, especially in putting together our sports nutrition seminar, which I believe was a great success.  It is one thing to talk about getting a couple hundred people and quite another to see them come into the arena having decided to come to the event we planned."

You are a wonderful role model for all our community members and your message will make a difference in these people’s lives for many years to come.  It is no wonder why the University of Minnesota Team is doing so well and having so many healthy team members-you are one of the big keys to their success….  Thanks for your time, effort, and professionalism.  Thanks for all you have done for our team!”
