Break free from diets and
build a positive relationship with food

Nutrition Coaching Rooted in the Mediterranean Diet

Find ease and joy with food.

Imagine a life where you have a peaceful, supportive,
and sustainable relationship with food.

We specialize in 1:1 Nutrition Support for:

  • Preventive nutrition focuses on reducing the risk of chronic diseases and supporting healthy aging through proactive dietary and lifestyle choices. We work with clients to create nutrition plans that enhance cognitive health, reduce inflammation, support mobility, and promote overall vitality through every life stage.

  • Eating disorders are complex medical and psychological conditions that require specialized, compassionate care. Nutritional rehabilitation is a core part of the recovery process. We offer trauma-informed, weight-inclusive nutrition counseling to support individuals healing from disordered eating patterns, always at a pace that respects your readiness and needs.

  • Nutrition plays a critical role in hormonal regulation, reproductive function, and conditions like PCOS, PMS, and infertility. We offer nutrition strategies to support hormone balance, regular cycles, fertility, and reproductive health through every stage of life.

  • Weight loss and weight management includes the pursuit of healthy, sustainable body weight changes, with a focus on behaviors rather than restriction. We support clients in setting realistic goals, improving their relationship with food, and making long-term changes without extreme dieting or calorie counting. 

  • Nutrition is a cornerstone of managing prediabetes, type 2 diabetes, and insulin resistance, helping to regulate blood glucose levels and prevent complications. We work with you to build balanced meals, understand carbohydrate quality and quantity, and implement sustainable habits that support your blood sugar and energy levels.

  • GLP-1 receptor agonists, like Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro, are medications used to support weight loss and blood sugar control. Nutritional support is essential for managing side effects and preserving muscle mass. We provide tailored nutrition guidance for clients using GLP-1s to help you eat adequately, feel well, and support long-term health while on these medications.

Hi, I’m Kelly

I’m a registered dietitian and culinary nutritionist with over 10 years of experience in San Diego and San Francisco, California. I specialize in the Mediterranean diet, recipe and meal plan development, women’s health, intuitive eating, and sustainable behavior change. Ultimately, I help clients stress less about food while reaching their health and weight goals.

After years of education, culinary training, and working in eating disorders and nutrition research, I built Kelly E. Powers Nutrition to give individuals, couples, and families the comprehensive support and personalization they need to take control of their health. Through customized nutrition and lifestyle support, we’ve helped hundreds reach their health and weight goals. You too can reduce mealtime stress, rediscover the joy of cooking and eating, and cultivate a positive relationship with food, yourself, and your body. We can help.

We see clients online via a secure, HIPPA-Compliant video platform. We also offer at-home support in San Diego and the Bay Area. We look forward to supporting you.
