Kelsey Gonzalez, RD

I would recommend Kelsey to anyone seeking nutritional counseling. I had struggled with weight fluctuations for many years and have pretty much tried everything. From protein shakes, to changing the type of workout I do, to self diagnosing constantly. I needed a credible resource. Someone who could look at what I have done in the past and truly understand where I wanted to be in the future. I have had the hardest time maintaining a healthy weight and retaining muscle mass. On top of that I was sick of letting others get in my head. Not only does Kelsey provide professional nutritional training, she really focused on what was going to help ME and not just the general «type» of person that also struggles with many of the same things. She is a true motivator and continues to care about my well being even after I consulted with her. You can immediately tell she has a strong passion for what she does and knows that it’s not just the physical aspects that you have to work on, but bettering you mental state as well. Process, change, and results at times can take awhile. Kelsey made me think about all aspects of my lifestyle, not just my eating habits. I have never been so energetic. I work a lot and know I can’t commit to keeping up with a strict routine. She has come up with steps that work with my busy schedule, so I have no excuse to say «I don’t have time».
Most importantly, she respects her job and respects her clients. In no way is becoming healthier a one way street. With Kelsey, it’s a team effort! I loved working with her. She is truly fantastic.

Kelsey is not only knowledgeable about nutrition, she is also so personable. I contacted Kelsey about how to raise energy levels and lose a bit of weight. She was inquisitive about my eating habits, schedule and life in general and came up with a reasonable plan to help meet my goals. She listens to what you’re looking to do and gives you the tools to succeed, now and in the future. Such a nice girl with passion for the field she is in. Such a positive person to work with!

I am a 57 yr. old Homemaker who has tried EVERY fad diet you can imagine! I heard about Kelsey through a friend and I have been working with Kelsey for the last month… She has helped me change my lifestyle which in turn has made me feel so much better… Not to mention that I have lost 8 lbs… just by changing my eating habits!!! Some of my biggest downfalls were, going all day without eating and then eating/​picking until I went to bed. Needless to say I was doing ALL the wrong things. Since working with Kelsey I’ve learned to make better choices, eat smaller healthy meals during the day. which in turn has made me cut out the late night eating! I even sleep better… Kelsey emails me on a regular basis and just keeps me motivated. She has given me great meal options according to what «I» Love to eat! I never knew it could be this easy… I would highly recommend Kelsey to any age group… She’s young, positive and very compassionate!

Kelsey is very personable, and very professional. She made me feel very comfortable during my new path of a healthy nutritional diet. Her help has exceeded my expectations and I’m loving the results.
She learned my work, and exercise schedule, and then developed an easy eating pattern that’s nutritious and delicious. Explaining everything in comprehendible detail. after our meeting, I received an email reviewing everything we had discussed, including some nutritional diagrams.
Overall, it was a great experience. Everyone should make an appointment with this rockstar! Thanks Kelsey!!!

from the busy new yorker; kelsey d has a passion for nutrition and you will see real results
i am a tv journalist in nyc and have a crazy schedule. kelsey flew out to meet me in nyc over the summer and showed me what to purchase at the store. she also gave me a few simple recipes and items i could make in minutes. she also explained the essential nutrients in each food item and how they affected my body… impressive. bottom line is she took the time to answer all of my questions, was with me every step of the way and showed that she really cared about my progress.
in june i exercised 1 – 2 hours a day and weighed 200 pounds. i wondered why i could not lose any weight even though i ran and lifted weights. well kelsey explained to me that my eating habits were causing me to be overweight.
she explained how simply cutting back on diet soda and alcohol could help me lose weight immediately. i also changed my eating habits and she made the transition easy. for example instead of a bagel and diet coke in the morning, i eat two hard boiled eggs, a yogurt and iced tea. the iced tea has 0 calories and is way better than diet coke… and i still get the sweetness i crave.
changing little things in my diet made big changes in my body. i have lost 17 pounds since the summer. i feel so much better. i still exercise about 1 hour a day but what you eat is really 85 percent.
kelsey brings fresh ideas and a positive attitude to nutrition counseling and has a bright future.

I was referred to Kelsey Dickens for nutrition counseling and she is not only an expert in her field but someone who really understands people.
Kelsey instantly made me feel comfortable– she started by asking me very basic questions about my lifestyle and things that I want to work on.
She then went through a food journal that I had kept for the past 3 days and analyzed patterns and issues with my eating habits.
She went through different nutrition topics and gave me practical tips to integrate into my daily life.
Kelsey is great because she recognizes the challenges of day to day life and she helps you take baby steps to a more healthy and balanced life.
I feel so much healthier/​energetic/​happier through applying her counseling to the way I eat and I am very excited to see her again next week.
I highly reccomend Kelsey Dickens if you want to work on your diet and eating habits or if you just have questions about nutrition and how certain foods effect your body– she’s the best!
