Linda is amazing!!! She was my Nutrionist for many months, including during which I was diagnosed with two chronic conditions that symptoms could be controlled with diet change. She clearly explained all the foods that could cause my symptoms to flare, and helped me craft healthy meals with acceptable ingredients. She was reliable, we talked weekly. The care she gives is with much kindness. I look forward to our calls every week because she makes me feel so much better. Having Linda as a Nutrionist helped me through some very challenging health times. Her support greatly helped my mental and physical health. Her menu recommendations helped reduce my chronic symptoms. Linda is a sweetheart and I highly recommend working with her. read more

I can't say enough positive things about Linda and Jackie. I worked with both of them in 2024 after being diagnosed with prediabetes, and they were truly incredible. As a busy mom of three, I was overwhelmed and didn't know where to begin. Linda took the time to understand my lifestyle and helped me create simple, realistic meals that fit my vegetarian diet and the chaos of family life. She's warm, relatable, and has such a gift for simplifying things without ever making me feel judged. Jackie brings an amazing depth of knowledge about diabetes and metabolic health. She helped me interpret my CGM data and understand my glucose patterns in a way that finally clicked. Her explanations were clear, empowering, and made the science feel manageable. When spring 2025 hit, I started working with Linda again to focus on weight loss, specifically, finding ways to lose weight while still feeling satisfied with my meals. That is truly her specialty. Every tip she gives is practical and easy to implement, and they've genuinely helped. I also love that she accepts my insurance, which makes caring for myself actually affordable. One of my favorite things about working with Linda is how she helps me plan for busy sports nights, so I always have a go to meal plan even when I'm exhausted from late practices. She's great at suggesting meals the whole family will enjoy, which makes sticking to changes so much easier. Working with both Linda and Jackie has been life-changing. Their combined expertise and their kindness has helped me feel informed, supported, and capable. I am truly grateful for their guidance and recommend them wholeheartedly. read more

I cannot rave enough about how incredible Linda has been for my health and weight-loss journey! She completely changed the way I understand food--what to eat, when to eat, and how to balance fats, carbs, and protein in a way that fits effortlessly into my life. And the best part? I never had to give up my love for delicious food or drinks! Before working with Linda, I had no idea I was eating way too much fat. She opened my eyes and gave me practical, easy-to-follow guidance that has made such a HUGE difference. I feel healthier, lighter, more energized, and honestly... more empowered. Linda is supportive, knowledgeable, and truly invested in her clients' success. If you're thinking about getting a nutritionist--do yourself a favor and go see her. She's a game changer! read more

I was referred to Linda by my doctor at One Medical after a blood test result came back with a high A1C, moving me into pre-diabetes level. I've worked with Linda for more than a year and I'm so happy to share that my A1C levels are in normal range now, and have continued to get better throughout the year. Linda is very encouraging and a great teacher. She helped me understand how to eat all my favorite foods (including sweets and desserts) without raising my blood sugar levels. She shared great recipes and tips every time we talked, and was always understanding when I shared the struggles I was experiencing, either because of my schedule or emotionally. She also cared about me personally and holistically, taking into consideration all the factors in my life that play a role in my habits (work stress, family, travel, etc.). I highly recommend Linda for anyone wanting to improve their eating habits, actually learn about nutrition, and/or lower their A1C and lose weight. 10/10 recommend. Thanks Linda! read more

I have been working with Linda since January, and I truly cannot recommend her enough. Before meeting her, I felt like I was doing everything "right" and still getting nowhere. I was working out every day, hitting my steps, and eating what I thought was a very healthy diet with foods like avocado, eggs, salmon, hummus, and plenty of protein. Even with all of that effort, the scale would not budge, and I could not understand why. Linda changed everything for me. She helped me understand that while I wasn't in a huge caloric surplus, I was eating much more fat than my body actually needed, and that imbalance was keeping me from losing weight. For the first time, someone explained the science to me in a way that made everything click. With her guidance, I made small but meaningful adjustments, and since reducing my fat intake, I have not only lost over 20 pounds in a steady and healthy way, but I also feel better overall. My digestion, energy, and general sense of well being have all improved so much. What I appreciate most is that Linda never made healthy eating feel restrictive. She helped me find balance, understand my body, and still live a full and happy life while making choices that support my goals. She is knowledgeable, compassionate, and genuinely invested in long term success. Working with her has been one of the best decisions I have ever made for my health. read more

I highly recommend Linda Michaelis. She is very knowledgeable and experienced, and has helped me change my diet for the better. I am currently on a GLP and I have been working with her for quite a few months and she is educating me and helping me reach my goals. Before I was eating out, High carb meals, sweets and everything bad. She has taught me how to make better choices and still eat things I enjoy, but to portion control or eat them at different times, etc. Linda is a wealth of knowledge and has great recipes she has shared, so many tips and ideas for healthy snacks and tips on increasing my protein and fiber. She also has included strength training tips, and given me so much valuable information. I submit a weekly diet to her, and we review things during our appointments. I now feel more confident in choosing better foods, and still enjoying food. I am not restricting and going cold turkey, but adjusting portions, and when to eat these foods, and when to limit. I used to do a lot of yo-yo dieting and keto, and now I feel that I am working towards the goal of lifestyle changes, so my weight loss is attainable! I highly recommended Linda and you won't regret it! read more

I cannot say enough good things about Linda Michaelis!! Working with her has genuinely changed my life. Before I met her, I felt overwhelmed about nutrition and what "healthy eating" really meant for me. Linda took the time to educate me, explain how different foods affect my body, and show me how to strategize my meals in a way that fits my schedule and lifestyle. I've learned more from her in our sessions than I have in years of reading and researching trying to figure it out on my own. With her help and expertise I'm feeling so much better and am on my way to achieving my health goals that much quicker than before! Such a blessing! What I appreciate most is her compassionate approach to her practice. She listens without judgment and gives clear structure, teaching me how to make the pertinent shifts in my daily eating habits in a healthy, sustainable way. She even helped me incorporate the foods I love into a plan that feels balanced and intentional -- something I genuinely didn't know was possible! Our weekly appointments are truly a bright spot in my schedule. She is warm, encouraging, and genuinely cares. I leave every session feeling empowered, supported, and excited to keep going!

I am very happy with Linda leading me through the process of weight loss and changing my eating habits. I struggled with weight through my life and recently, when I got older, it became even more difficult. Linda's guidance helped me to get back on track and I am now well on the way to achieve my desired, normal weight. Her non nonsense approach, solid practical knowledge of nutrition and program customized to my needs made a big difference. I am now loosing about 1-2 lbs a week, the amount considered a healthy weight loss. This is exactly what I wanted! Thank you Linda! read more

I spoke to Linda as I saw her positive reviews on Yelp. I had just had my A1c done and it was in the prediabetic area. I worked with Linda and 3 months later I was in the high normal area- then 3 months later I was down to 5.4. I am grateful that I was able to work with Linda! She is knowledable and helpful. read more

I started working with Linda when I became aware that I was at a high risk for heart disease due to a hereditary condition. Although my cholesterol levels were not bad, my cardiologist wanted my LDL very low. After three months of working with Linda I was able to reduce my LDL by 40% Linda showed me how to read labels correctly and quickly outlined a plan to manage my diet meal by meal, which included daily calorie, saturated fat and carb levels. Linda was also able to provide a wealth of information regarding food options, including options for meals and snacks to make, specific products to buy at local grocery stores, as well as prepared foods to buy. We discussed how to handle ordering meals while dining out. I found Linda very easy to work with and would recommended her to anyone needing help with nutrition. read more

It was a pleasure working with Linda . She really took the time to understand my nutrition goals and lifestyle and came up with plan that quickly showed results. Linda made me understand labels much better which helped me in making smarter snack choices. We also went over menus from different restaurants and what to order. The best part about the whole plan was that I didn't feel like I was sacrificing anything. I lost weight while eating my chocolate . That for me was a win-win. If you are looking to lose weight, move to a healthier diet or simply want to understand nutrition, reach out to Linda . Trust me you will not be disappointed . read more

When my 6-year-old picky-eater ended up in the ER due to severe constipation our pediatrician referred us to Linda for help. She was patient and engaging with my son, who was reluctant to participate in our sessions at first. She gave us loads of actionable advice on how to help him. I appreciated that she met him where he was at and didn't just give us good advice that wouldn't work for him. read more

My Family Doctor recommended Linda for a weight issue and other health related issues. Within 2 months I dropped 20 lbs and recognized the best blood panels I have had in 25 years. I thought I was eating well, but Linda immediately saw that what I was eating was out of balance. We completely adjusted my diet based on MY Lifestyle. Linda interviews you, understands your lifestyle, the amount of activity you pursue and offers a completely customized approach and lifestyle change based on what's best for You! Frankly, Linda prolongs life..... There is nothing scary or strict or fad-like with what Linda discusses. It really is common sense. My wife is so thrilled with the results that she is now a client of Linda's as well. As Linda so eloquently states "this is not a diet, it is a life style ". read more

I contacted Linda to work with my pre-teen daughter who recently became very aware of body image and the number on the scale. Linda was a pleasure to work with. She prioritized my daughter's favorite foods and found ways to include them in her diet. She introduced my daughter to new foods that she ended up really liking. Linda went out of her way giving us time and attention and because of this, my daughter experienced results immediately. I highly recommend working with Linda. read more

I would thoroughly recommend working with Linda. She has an encyclopedic knowledge of the food products on offer in all the major grocery stores (Whole Foods, TJs, Sprouts, Safeway). She provided a wide range of recipes (and fat-reducing cooking tips) that my fiancé and I have enjoyed incorporating into our diets. We have both been successful in losing weight. Linda provides excellent nutritional expertise mixed with a practical approach to eating healthily without requiring unrealistic or unwanted exclusions. You can have your cake and eat it too; you just need to be smart about when, how often, and what you could eat instead. read more

I highly recommend Linda without any doubt!!! I went to see her about a month ago because my doctor told me that I had pre diabetes and high cholesterol. She told me what foods to eat exactly and what foods to avoid. She made the recommendations based on my favorite foods which was great. Now a month after my sugar levels are back to normal and I am eating my favorite foods :) I am very thankful for all of her help. She is a great person and a great professional. Always available to answer any questions and for follow ups. I wish I cud give her 10 stars. Her service is outstanding. You should get in touch with her if you are trying to lose weight, if you have pre-diabetes, diabetes, or high cholesterol. She will help you SO MUCH!!! Thank you Linda for all of your help! read more

Linda helped us for the last several months with our 12 year old son who was desperate to lose weight which made him self conscious and unhappy with his shirt off. Linda met him once and gave him lots of good food choices and ideas and then we had a phone meeting with our son and myself every week. She checked in on our son's progress, reviewed what he ate and gave him real life good tips that felt realistic for a pre-teen active boy. We were so happy about just opening the dialogue of what is good / what is not and how to then work as a family to provide the best choices for us all. I highly recommend Linda for any parent of a pre teen or teen who is looking for help on this touchy and sensitive matter! read more

Linda is a delight to work with. My husband has used many diet plans. It wasn't until we spent time with Linda that he was successful. I still remember the first thing she asked my husband. What do you like to eat? What are your favorite foods? What a delight that was. She didn't want to tell him what to eat she wanted to teach him how to manage eating his favorite foods. I would recommend Linda to everyone. read more

Linda is the greatest person I've ever worked with! She has such a kind heart and genuinely cares about your health. She wants to not only make sure you are healthy but also respects your lifestyle. I'm a young girl just out of college so she knows how social my life is with going out for drinks and food with friends. She helps me to make compromises in my diet and follow my best interest. If you need a registered dietitian, this is your person! read more

Linda is an amazing nutritionist. She is so kind and sweet, as well as knowledgable and of course helpful. She is extremely flexible schedule-wise, and rate-wise. I have lost 30 pounds with her over the past 9 months losing about a pound a week with limited activity due to chronic pain issues. I can't imagine how much more I would've lost with consistent exercise. I still have more to lose but I am able to be successful on my own now thanks to Linda. Linda makes things very easy, and opens you up to new recipes and ways of thinking that keep you losing weight. There is no calorie tracking or constant weighing, just food journaling which is very helpful and which you could decide not to do although it is recommended. I recommend it as well. Again, Linda will work with you in whichever way you'd like to do things. If you listen to her and do as she says, you will have success. She keeps you accountable without you feeling guilty, and is extremely positive and understanding about the weight loss journey. I highly recommend her! read more

After beginning my journey towards healthier eating, I realized I had a ton of questions. There is so much information on what is ' good' or 'bad' for you and a zillion different diets to try that it is overwhelming, and all I wanted to know what was right for me. I found Linda and was so glad I did! It was wonderful being able to talk with a real person about my existing lifestyle and what I wanted to change. She was honest and was open to suggesting changes that worked for me and my tastes. I loved that she was not pushing for an overly strict diet that would eventually fail because I would end up feeling like I was missing what I loved. Instead she helped me incorporate my favorite items (even desserts!) while still maintaining an overall healthier approach to eating. Now I am still keeping to our plan, have lost weight, and don't feel like I am dieting at all! Thanks Linda for helping me eat and feel my best! read more

Linda's approach is not a diet, so much as a change to the way that I eat. She helped me understand nutrition and plan healthy meals. She is there every day to coach and encourage you. I really did not feel hungry (very much) because the food that I ate was more filling and had the write ratio of protein to carbs, etc. I lost 20 pounds and have kept it off for 5 months now. I highly recommend her. read more

Let me start with how easy this whole process has been. My journey with Linda has been not only rewarding but simple. This is not a diet but a change in my way of looking at food feeling full and balanced with no cravings. Linda gives so much encouragement. If I need a question answered she is always a text or call away. I have lost 35lbs in 3 months. I have so much more energy and feel so wonderful. This has been the best thing I have ever done for myself. read more

I worked with Linda for about 10 weeks and lost about 20 pounds that I hadn't been able to lose trying any other method. Linda helped to me eat a balanced diet of foods I like, plan ahead, put myself first, and be a better cook for my family. I felt she was very personal in her approach and wanted to learn about me, my habits, my food likes, my schedule, and my family. Her approach really covered all my barriers to success and helped me break through to the next level. She is very generous with her time and is great at her job. She takes her role seriously and wants to see her clients succeed, gain confidence, and change their lives. Thanks, Linda! read more

I was totally intimidated about seeing a nutritionist but then someone recommended Linda to me. We met and began working together. She has taught me so much about nutrition. She's taught me how to read labels (but not so much that's it's overwhelming, just enough to make better choices.) Also, that sometimes you may not make the best choice but that's okay, if you can plan for it - awesome. That you can still achieve your goals and have a special treat if needed. The best thing is that she's taught me how to reframe my thinking about food in a very comfortable and effortless way. After a few months of working with her it became glaringly obvious just how wrong "dieting" is for your body. She makes it more about what your body needs. And for me that's so important. Especially since I have gone mostly organic now and am focusing on giving my body what it needs to run and feel better. I also introduced my husband to Linda. He's been working with her and we meal plan and prep together. It feels wonderful to be feeding your body good stuff. It's changed our lives. And we actually see our taste changing and actually crave the wholesome nutrient rich foods. I recommend Linda for anyone trying to make a change. I've tried so many different ways to "get healthy" or even "diet" and this is the first that's ever show results. Loosing weight, feeling better and living a happier life. read more

Linda is a wonderful nutritionist and supporter. She approaches this program by interviewing you, getting history of dieting and medical background. She has changed the way I look at food, how to analyze a menu and pick the right dishes to enjoy. She is always available whether she is in town or out of town. She responds very quickly and wants to support you in many different food situations. She also takes the time to get your thoughts and input as to how I could have made a better decision or lets me know that I did a great job. I highly recommend Linda for she is very personable and a caring person. I have lost 35 pounds in 6 months. With the help of Linda showing me how much protein, carbs, fruit and vegetables per day I have succeeded. Donna M read more

My husband and I started working with Linda several months ago. We wanted to lose weight and adopt healthier eating habits. We've both lost 35 lbs. and are continuing to lose. Linda's approach to weight loss is very practical. She encourages her clients to enjoy food but to think and plan so that you are making good choices throughout your week. She has counseled us through vacations, special occasions and the challenges of daily life and activities. She reviews menus at local restaurants and makes recommendations for healthy choices. She has even called a restaurant in advance for us to discuss the menu with them so that she can help us make smart choices when ordering! That's a huge help. We lead busy personal and work lives and really appreciate that Linda will "meet" with us over the phone. It is one of the many things that makes our work with Linda great. If your insurance covers nutritional counseling, Linda even handles all of the billing. It's a total win- win. We highly recommend Linda! read more

I have been seeing Linda for approximately 2 months for pre-diabetes and she has been so helpful!!! My A1C has already dropped back to healthy levels and I don't feel deprived. She makes herself available via phone and text between meetings which is very helpful. Linda addresses both the physical and emotional aspects of overeating. I highly recommend!! read more

I contacted Linda because my 89 year old mother in law had an A1C of 6.3. I did not know what to do, not having had experience with this issue. With her excellent guidance, we changed her diet and brought her A1C down to 5.7, and she lost 43 lbs. Linda suggested foods like quinoa, three bean salad, lentils, whole wheat couscous, and gave me suggestions for breakfasts, snacks, and in between meals. Luckily, I like to cook so now I can make MIL nutritious, healthy meals, while maintaining her A1C. Make her quinoa pilaf....who knew?! MIL's doc is very pleased with all of her blood test results. Linda is always available by text or phone. I highly recommend contacting her if you have dietary issues. read more

I wish I could give six stars. I began working with Linda in 2012 and have experienced a total transformation ever since. Linda's approach is one that uses balance and moderation, while educating clients on a comprehensive understanding of a nutrition label and making good choices as often as possible. We typically meet in her beautiful home office, which is very peaceful and quiet. Linda takes the time to listen and always makes me feel right at home while offering helpful, constructive advice. She is insightful and sincere in the thoughts she shares during our sessions, which often includes "holistic" life topics other than diet and nutrition. My food and cooking knowledge have improved by far since working with Linda. After we first went grocery shopping together I had and a whole new toolbox of ideas with which to work in the kitchen! I would recommend LindaRD to anyone looking to improve their overall nutrition knowledge, gain a supportive cheerleader or just to increase their quality of life!! read more

Linda has been such a help in my making changes in my diet. Her guidance has helped me drop over ten pounds and more importantly, reduced my cholesterol. She's been so available and willing to help, reviewing menus before I head out to a meal. If you are trying to make changes to how you eat and think about food, Linda can definitely help navigate it. read more

I took my kids, both teens, to see Linda this summer to get more information on nutrition and good eating habits. She helped them understand what constitutes a meal that is filling and healthy, and taught them how to read food labels in order to make better choices. She started with what they already like to eat and taught them to build on that, rather than encouraging them to start over with whole new food choices that would be too intimidating for any teen. She would also check in with them via text to see what they were eating and offer suggestions about how to add more protein and fiber to each meal. Very worthwhile and helpful! Thanks Linda! read more

After a year of unsuccessfully trying to lose weight on my own, I took my doctor's advice and contacted Linda. She provided a no-nonsense approach to achieving healthy eating habits without sacrificing my favorite foods. She taught me how to eat balanced meals that were loaded with protein and fiber. She had lots of suggestions for meals at home as well as how to order in restaurants. She was always professional and positive in her encouragement. Thanks to Linda I'm well on my way to achieving my desired weight. read more

Linda is so great! She has helped me recognize the habits that are making me eat poorly. She has also given me permission to be human ;-) My work office has lots of junk food and has been a battle for me to avoid. Linda has taught me the trucks I need to use to either avoid the junk or incorporate into a healthy day of food. I would recommend her help and advice to anyone who wants to change. read more

After many, many years of dieting, I just didn't know what to eat anymore. Linda has given me a very doable, comprehensive plan, so I don't have to wonder what I should be eating. Within the first few weeks, I felt much better, had more energy, and a working food plan. The scale is slow to budge, but it is definitely going in the right direction. Linda works with me one on one, adjusting my plan to maximize results. Having accountability helps to keep me focused, and I know that I will be talking to Linda every few days to review what is working and what needs adjustments. I feel that finally, I have guidance from someone who has been through this journey herself, and is committed to ensuring it happens for all her patients. read more

Linda was so great to work with and really helped me understand food and lose all my pregnancy weight in just 2 month (I gained 35 pounds total). She was so helpful and checked in with me every day to see how I was doing. It was so great to have that support every day and know that I had to report to someone so I couldn't cheat! Since working with her, I feel like I understand what I need to eat for my body and to stay full and still support my baby while breastfeeding! I have NEVER been able to lose weight and dieting never worked for me, but working with Linda has worked tremendously because it's not a diet, it's just a healthy way of eating and eating only what I need! read more

Linda has been excellent to work with to lower my cholesterol! She is always professional and I can set my watch by her punctuality.

I have more energy, shed a few pounds and have healthier looking hair. I highly recommend Linda and will refer friends and family her way. read more

I highly recommend working with Linda. As a teenager going to a nutritionist seems like an unpleasant experience but after about 5 months I have already had so much success. After years of trying to change my diet Linda has really taught me how to manage my meals. She knows what it is like to lose weight so it's great having someone who has been in your shoes! My daily calls with Linda are super beneficial and supportive. She doesn't deprive you of your favorite foods and helps incorporate them by planning ahead of time. I have learned so much about nutrition at a young age from Linda. Linda is so great! I strongly urge you to give her a call! read more
