I got inspired to improve my relationship with food, my eating habits and choices, my body and even my social anxiety last year, and got recommended to Sheva. Before I started with Sheva, I had been trying to improve my heath on my own, and was apparently doing everything right, but was not seeing any results. Sheva taught me a ton, but most importantly she taught me about bio-individuality and how each person is different. We discussed how the body is a web of interconnected systems and in order to up my health and slim down, we had to approach it from all angles. And we did, tackling everything in a non-restrictive, pleasant way. I’ve learned so much priceless information and now have the tools to keep implementing more improvements on my own. I’m so thankful for the journey, and even more so that I found her! I would 100% recommend!!

When I started working with Sheva I was in a extremely dark place. I was struggling with body mage issues post eating disorder, weight, depression, anxiety and a lot a gut issues.
I’ve worked with many people in the past and had no success. I’m happy to say that Sheva completely transformed my life and changed the way I view everything. I gained confidence, peace within myself, fun, a great relationship towards food and body, figured out/ healed my gut issues, learned to put myself first, take care of myself and so much more!
I highly recommend working with Sheva. Thank you, Sheva, for being with me every single step of the way!

These past 6 months have been a roller coaster of change. I was a completely different person 6 months ago. I was just unhappy and angry, and my body didn’t feel good. I was under nourishing myself and I saw food as something that I didn’t deserve. My bowels were not working properly. I was having stomach pain and headaches and I had so much anxiety I felt like I was gonna burst. I compared myself to others and always felt like I wasn’t enough. I felt so lost, but then I found Sheva. Sheva taught me how to love myself and think positively. She taught me how to self care and relax into things. I learned how to nourish my cells and my body so that I can feel strong and happy. I now think so much more positively and I have awareness of the things around me and I feel compassion for others. I look at food as way to give me energy and a way to show self love by feeding my body the nutrients it needs. I am so grateful for Sheva who guided me through out this whole process and was there supporting me whether it was through text or calls. Sheva was always there for me and I feel like my life is changed forever.

I absolutely loved working with Sheva! She helped me completely transform the way I eat and think about food. I had previously struggled to maintain a healthy diet with minimal cooking skills, so Sheva helped me to develop those skills from scratch while providing a wide array of delicious and healthy recipes that aligned with my dietary needs. From organizing my kitchen space and equipment, to providing at-‐home cooking lessons and information on healthy ingredients, to being available for last-‐minute questions regularly between appointments, Sheva provided an invaluable resource that has truly changed my life. I had also been dealing with gastrointestinal issues for several years, without much relief from medications or dietary changes, which have now largely resolved due to this sustainable approach to eating clean, pure foods. Sheva was also wonderful in helping with overall stress reduction by working with me on sleep hygiene, finding enjoyable exercise routines, and generally helping me structure my daily life so that I could incorporate these new tools seamlessly and sustainably.

"Working with Sheva the past six months has been one of the best decisions I have ever made for my health and well-being. On day one we set goals and with Sheva's compassionate yet assertive guidance I have far surpassed my goals and expectations. When we started out working together I was in a really dark place and Sheva helped me develop much healthier thinking patterns and I'm a different person because of it. I was also in a lot of physical pain when we started and because of Sheva's wealth of knowledge in everything nutrition-related, I am now pain free. Among many other achievements these last six months, I now have a big binder full of healthy delicious recipes that I look forward to continue using!"

"I wish I met Sheva and started working with her years ago, but I am here now and am so grateful for all of her help. Sheva’s program is much more comprehensive than that of any other nutritionist I have worked with over the years. She is really more of a personal life coach. In the first session, she asks you to think about several goals that you would like to achieve in the 6 months that you work together, and they can be about anything not just about losing weight and eating well.
She provides helpful techniques about organizing your time, stress relief, sleep issues, how to plan for and eat well while traveling, to name just a few. She makes trying new things extremely easy by emailing you links to new foods, recipes, restaurants, supplements, videos of at-home exercises or stress relievers, and much more. You can email her with any questions, or photos of food labels while you’re shopping, and she responds quickly. Goals can be added to overtime. She doesn’t just discuss what foods you should or should not be eating, but she explains why-what benefits the food provides you with, as well as when to eat it. She goes through your medical history and current issues and is helping me to holistically relieve or completely solve the conditions I have struggled with for years.
Sheva also understands that people have busy lives and travel, so she allows you to email her as often as you like and to skype into your weekly sessions. Currently, I have completed about 4 ½ months of our 6 month time together. I have already achieved many of my goals, and am on the right path toward achieving other long term objectives-things that I consider to be outside the realm of what a nutritionist is normally concerned with. Sheva has been the one to finally help me adopt a healthy lifestyle that I am certain I will be able to maintain. I have recommended her to my family and friends, which is the greatest praise one can give."

"Sheva. Let me start with this- I am so unbelievably lucky and grateful that I had the opportunity to work with you these past six months. It was worth every bit of the resources that went into it and more- time, energy, money, commitment etc. (To clients that are hesitant over the financial aspect like I was, it was worth every penny. Given the chance I would choose to do it over again in a heartbeat.) I can not begin to calculate the benefits I got out of this, or possibly have dreamed up what I would be walking away with. In my evaluation, you helped me put down four of my goals on paper. I came out with so much more than those four! I went in with weight goals, exercise goals, relationship goals, and career goals. On top of having grown in all of those areas, I am also walking away from a new girl.
My relationship with myself, as well as my self-awareness, has skyrocketed for the good. I feel much more secure and better equipped to deal with all the ups and downs that are in store for me than I did a couple of months back. I have tried working with nutritionists in the past, but no one has so much as touched the work you do. I specifically appreciate how apparent it is that you do not have a 'one size fits all' plan for your clients, and how all your work is custom designed to address the root of each issue. I also appreciate how open and willing you are to be out of the box and work in whatever ways suit your client (walks, coffee shops, grocery shops, skype calls etc.) Over the six months, I threw many unanticipated issues that came up in my life at you, and you never failed to craft a plan with me to help hit the nail over the head. I have learned so much from you and can not thank you enough. I've said this before, but it's hard to believe you have other clients- I feel as though I had a personal coach at my side throughout. I consider my journey with you a big blessing, and certainly the best gift I have ever been able to give myself. Thank you!"
- Musia B, NY
We are so happy and proud of the transition our daughter has made in the past 6 months. Sheva has helped her see things from a completely different perspective, one from compassion, empathy, and self-love, which has had a significant impact on our daughter's quality-of-life and our connection with her as parents. We want to thank Sheva from the bottom of our hearts for the amazing work Sheva has done. Sheva, you've completely surpassed our expectations!

"I started with Sheva in a very weak place. I had no idea what foods were good for me and what foods were not. I was in bed most of the day due to pain and feeling very unhopeful about the future.
Sheva urged patience and time for healing, and that there will be no quick fixes. But in exchange for that, she promised a lifetime of foundational health in regards to food, health and so much more...
Sheva showed a lot of support and patience throughout the process. She gave me all the time plus much more... she walked me step by step in a very integrative process to strengthen all areas in life that needed tweaking. By the time we finished, my weight had returned to normal, my pain had almost completely gone away, and I was a different person than when I started. I am most certainly a stronger, happier and healthier person because of her.
Whoever works with her, is very lucky to do so."
- Yossi, NY
"I am so grateful that I met Sheva and was able to work with her.
She was very accommodating for a busy mom and made it possible for me by coming to my house because otherwise, it would have never happened!
She was very understanding of the dynamics of a family. i.e. kids' diet, some members of the family sometimes reluctant to try new things etc.
I really liked that she came well prepared for every session and very organized. She valued our time together and didn't waste it on small talk and got straight to business.
I feel I accomplished a lot with her.
I don't just take things at face value, and I liked how Sheva explained things and broke everything down to me; down to the molecular level! Her knowledge in the field is far beyond your average dietitian.
She has quite a lot of experience and she truly lives what she preaches. It's an integral part of her. She loves what she's doing: helping people/families to be healthier, shinier human beings. It was a pleasure to work with her!
I highly recommend Sheva, don't try to do it by yourself. You will gain so much more by working with her. There is so much misleading and contracting information on the web, that it becomes almost impossible to sift through all the heaps of information that is out there. But one thing is for sure, Sheva has no other agenda than to make you a happier and healthier human being!"
-Judith K., NY
"After years of thinking I was eating healthy, just a few months since meeting Sheva, I am finally feeling like I’m on the road to a clear healthy path. Her guidance, support, and encouragement were constant! She is not only knowledgeable but always so compassionate in her approach.
Sheva has taught me that healing isn’t just about the physical. It’s about so much more, the mental and spiritual.
Sheva gave me the truest and best gift possible. She helped me find my true best version of myself.
She is a blessing that came into my life and I am forever grateful!"
- Chany R, NY
"Just the other day I wrote a gratitude list and the first thing that came to mind was- I have Sheva. This has been the most worthwhile decision ever. I am exploring my life, getting in tune with my body, learning how to live in a wholesome loving way and incorporating it so it feels natural and do-able. I feel empowered to expand my horizons and turns dreams into reality. It is awesome. I actually see results. I feel like I am living alive! I am so much more mindful. Every week I look forward to our session and it leaves me feeling rejuvenated and more connected with myself. I feel like I am in the best hands."
-Rachel L. NY
"Thank you, Sheva, for helping me become healthier physically & mentally. Working with you was such a pleasure. You retrained my thinking on many unhealthy habits and gave me a healthier perspective. I learned so many things and each month I felt healthier. I really feel like the best version of myself. I really can't thank you enough."
-Rachel W. PA
"I was at the point in my life when something had to be done about my health. I was overweight, had constant joint pain and had out of control eating habits. I have been doing some research and was trying new things here and there. At some point, I realized that I needed someone to help me and guide me through the process. I needed a structural, consistent approach to the whole "take charge of your health" thing. When I met Sheva at a retreat, I felt that she was the right person who would help me to do just that - to make changes to improve and take charge of my health.
After working with Sheva for 5 months, my eating habits had changed slowly but drastically. I became aware and mindful of what I eat and when. I was able to reduce the amount of food I was eating and at the same time to improve the quality of the food I was eating.
When I started working with Sheva, I was very insecure in my choices, I was not sure what was right for me and worried about doing it all wrong. After 5 months of working with Sheva, I was able to find my confidence, with Sheva's guidance and encouragement I began to feel much more secure in my decisions regarding health.
I liked the fact that Sheva was able to meet me at the point where I was and help me to make small but significant changes in my lifestyle. As a result, I feel much better, my joint pains went away, I have fewer cravings and can control what and when I eat. I am eating much healthier and with mindfulness. I have lost about 10 lb, the largest amount of weight I have lost in 20 years. I move more and with ease, my clarity and focus at work have improved as a result of working with Sheva. I have not been sick at all for the past 5 months, when previously I would often get cold and flu, especially in winter.
I am confident that after completing my program with Sheva, I will have all the tools and knowledge needed to continue on my optimal health journey.
I am very grateful to Sheva for helping me improve my health and overall quality of life."
