About Tanya
Welcome, I’m Tanya Saunders, and I have been a dedicated dietitian for the past 19 years.
I focus my care on the management and prevention of hypertension, high cholesterol, and heart disease. As well, as supporting clients with celiac disease.
My approach to nutrition is rooted in a deep understanding and a passion for helping others find joy and health in their food choices. I am a mother of two boys, and I'm well acquainted with the challenges and struggles that accompany the endeavor to nourish both myself and my family.
My personal journey began with my own diagnosis of Celiac Disease. This was not merely a professional challenge, but a profound change in my own lifestyle. I’ve learned to navigate the world of food in a way that honors my body’s needs: selecting groceries, crafting gluten-free meals at home, enjoying restaurants, and partaking in family gatherings—all through a lens of mindfulness and enjoyment without gluten.
Living with Celiac has deepened my empathy and connection with those facing similar dietary changes. I've experienced the learning curve firsthand, from understanding the right questions to ask when offered food, to becoming adept at reading food labels. I've also come to appreciate that Celiac Disease manifests uniquely for each person, with a spectrum of symptoms and a variety of discovery stories, all influenced by different support systems from home, work, and friends.
I understand that grieving the loss of gluten-containing foods is a journey, not a one-time event. It's a path I walk myself, continually discovering and delighting in gluten-free choices that are both healthy and satisfying. I am here to share with you the facts, the support, and the companionship you need on your own journey with Celiac.
By choosing to work with me, you're not just selecting a dietitian. You're choosing a nutrition coach who has lived through the same challenges that a gluten-free life entails. Together, we will explore a world where your diet is not limited but enriched. Let’s embark on this path to wellness with joy and understanding.
