Serena Benali - Dietitian & Founder of In Good Nutrition
Hi, I’m Serena! As someone who spent years struggling with food, I understand how overwhelming it can feel to try and find nourishment and balance. My mission is to help others find balance, nourishment, and joy with food - without stress or guilt. Whether you’re working through emotional eating, weight concerns, or striving to build healthier habits, I offer compassionate, practical support tailored to your unique goals.
My Story, Serena Benali
For most of my life, I battled with my relationship with food. I started dieting at a young age, trying one fad diet after another, each time hoping for a breakthrough. Instead, I found myself stuck in a toxic cycle of restriction and obsession that drained me.
My turning point came when I realized I wasn’t living the life I was meant to live. I was constantly exhausted, overwhelmed with thoughts about food and weight, and missing out on experiences. It was clear: I had to break free from the restrict-binge-repeat cycle to reclaim my life.
By healing my relationship with food, I discovered how to nourish my body and mind for total well-being.
Through this process, I lost a significant amount of weight, but more importantly, I gained something far more valuable, a new way of living. I learned how to nourish my body and mind in a way that truly supported my well-being. I reconnected with the pleasure of eating and learned to trust my body, listening to its signals without guilt or obsession. The freedom and balance I found changed every part of my life—and it’s this transformation that inspired me to become a dietitian and build In Good Nutrition.

Whether you’re working through emotional eating, managing weight, or simply striving to feel better in your body, Our team of dietitians are here to support you every step of the way with practical tools, personalized care, and meaningful guidance.
