Jennifer Pelaez is a Certified Holistic Health Counselor and founder and director of Green Goddess Nutrition, a private weight loss and wellness practice. Jennifer completed her training at the world-renowned Institute for Integrative Nutrition, in partnership with Columbia University Teacher’s College, in New York City. Her training included in-depth analysis of over 100 different dietary theories, from the traditional to the modern, Eastern to Western, and popular to esoteric in combination with an integrative approach to reaching optimal health through a whole body and mind approach.
She is certified by the American Association of Drugless Practitioners, member of the American Holistic Health Association. She has used her interest and studies in different cultures and ways of eating to individualize and recommend a program specific to the diverse needs of her clients.
Food is such a powerful tool and Jennifer has made it her goal to get this message across to as many people as possible. In today's modern world, especially for those living in urban areas, particularly NYC, convenient, fast, and packaged/processed, sugar-laden, nutritionally deficient products have become the norm. Jennifer offers a fresh perspective at meal planning and detox & weight loss programs that are possible to incorporate into everyone's busy schedule.
Her passion in health, wellness, and nutrition are evident by her attention to detail and great care and time she devotes to each person she takes on as a client.
