I have been working with Claudia for over 12 weeks and I cannot tell you how her program has changed my life. Claudia is very knowledgeable and is able to bring an individualized, one-on-one, element to weight management that is missing from other programs. I lost weight on my own before working with Claudia but I had reached an impassable plateau.

Claudia is the easiest person to talk to regarding diet and nutrition. I had a hard time with diet and weight my whole life; which resulted in me having disordered eating. I felt that was the only way to control the issue. Claudia helped me find a diet that helped with my nutrient deficiencies and overall helped me come back and maintain a safe weight for my height and age. Not once did Claudia make me feel judged throughout the whole process. Additionally, she helped me find foods that worked for me and my everyday routine. I am not a big cook, which can deviate most people from getting onto a

Thanks to Claudia, I've been able to maintain a steady progress towards my nutrition goals. She is incredibly knowledgable and truly works with you to improve your relationship with food and how your body handles your diet. I can't recommend Hleap Nutrition enough for anyone looking for a registered dietitian nutritionist!

I highly recommend Claudia and the excellent straight talk and nutritional advice she provides. Claudia has a great personality and is easy to talk to, and also goes about this with a pragmatic approach. My main goal was to better manage and reduce my cholesterol through diet, and Claudia’s specific tips have been very helpful. It’s definitely helped me attack this issue better and with more knowledge. I plan on scheduling follow-up visits to reinforce things and build on what I’ve learned.

I recently started meeting with Claudia and feel so grateful and lucky to have found her! Claudia is so personable, funny, smart and explains things simply so it’s relatable and realistic. She’s helping me with building a foundation around a healthy lifestyle that is sustainable. I’ve tried WW and countless other ways to lose weight and it’s so refreshing to hear that the entire process to managing your health and weight can be much easier than I believed it to be. Looking forward to a great partnership with Claudia to reach my healthy lifestyle goals! Would recommend her 10/10.

Working with Claudia has been so refreshing. I have a complicated relationship with food and she is helping me move past my hang ups. She is not focused on weight and she really wants to ensure you are nourishing your body, she provides logic and rationale at all times. I am moving in the right direction with my food journey and I would recommend anyone to book her services.
