Hi, I’m Felicia Gunawan.
I’m passionate about helping people achieve better health through personalized nutrition. Having spent 17 years in Indonesia, I have a deep appreciation for rich, flavorful foods. My family’s cultural background has given me a unique perspective on nutrition, especially in a Eurocentric world, and I’m passionate about incorporating these influences into my approach. I want to celebrate your culture and uniqueness by integrating it into your personalized health plan.
I studied Pre-Medicine in college and earned a Master’s degree in Human Nutrition and Functional Medicine from the University of Western States (Portland, OR). My areas of specialization include metabolic diseases, gestational diabetes, pediatric nutrition, food allergies, and general health challenges. I’m also a mentee of leading Integrative and Functional Medicine Nutritionists at The Clinician’s Incubator, which allows me to stay up-to-date with the latest research and tools in the field of Medical Nutrition Therapy.
I live in Maryland, in the Washington D.C. Metropolitan Area, and currently offer telehealth consultations to make it easier for clients to access my services from anywhere.
