What Clients Are Saying
“Working with Cristal has been life-changing. She has supported me in developing sustainable, intuitive eating habits and a more balanced relationship with movement. Our sessions have helped me cultivate self-compassion, confidence in recovery, and a sense of inner peace that I will always be grateful for. Can't recommend her enough!”

“My family reached out Cristal during the pandemic and in a moment we saw something was wrong with our daughter's eating habits. Cristal is a very experienced person, and is always willing and available to communicate with us, parents. She is also very patient, kind and flexible to understand teenagers struggles and eating disorder problems. We were very blessed to have her guidance and support during the treatment.”

“Cristal was incredibly supportive and had wonderful insight and resources to help me through my ED recovery including identifying triggers, challenging my thinking and behaviors, and envisioning myself beyond my ED. I can't say enough about how pivotal she was to my journey. She was thoughtful, non-judgmental and kind. I would recommend her to anyone seeking help with nutrition, body image or EDs.”

“Cristal really cares about her clients and will pass on resources to help you outside of session. For me, as a Latina, it was also really nice to have someone within my culture to support my journey in working on disordered eating.”

“I am beyond grateful (and honored) to have had the opportunity to work with Cristal as my nutritionist!! I struggled with disordered eating for the better part of two decades. Before starting our work together, I had so much anxiety surrounding food and was incredibly lacking in the self-compassion department. I had some hesitations about seeking help (due to some not-so-nice or understanding physicians in the past) but I knew something had to change. Right from the very first session, Cristal provided an abundance of understanding, compassion, and support. Throughout our work together I gained many tools that have been extremely helpful. Cristal taught me how to eat. Cristal taught me to stay curious (like an anthropologist) and really ‘dig’ into my thoughts and feelings surrounding food and myself. She helped me quiet the all-or-nothing mentality and look at things from a different (non-weight based) perspective. I learned to listen to and trust my body. I learned to nourish myself and my creativity in the kitchen.
Intuitive eating, gentle nutrition, and Cristal Medina have helped me completely change the quality of my life. Working with Cristal has empowered me in SO many ways. I would hands-down recommend seeking out Cristal as a nutritionist to ANYONE looking to develop a more positive relationship with food and themselves!!”
