Meet Chana Leah

Chana Leah Backman is a Registered Dietitian who believes that the best nutrition plan is one that you can actually live with.

Her approach revolves around personalized care that accounts for the member’s whole life, and meets them where they are. Chana Leah aims to use a collaborative approach to build sustainable habits rather than prescribe a rigid set of rules.

Her path

A steady commitment to better care

Chana Leah’s path to private practice reflects a steady commitment to accessible, high-quality nutrition care. She began her career at WIC, providing nutrition education to mothers and young families. She then shifted to a national telehealth RD company, where she worked with a broad range of clients navigating chronic conditions, weight management, and general wellness goals. This background gave her an appreciation for the value of personalized nutrition guidance — and the limits of cookie-cutter plans.

That understanding led her to transition into working with private clients, with whom she can now offer an elevated level of care: more time, more individualized attention, and more flexibility to design plans that truly work for each member’s life.

In her words

I plan to work with clients who are seeking concierge-style dietetic care and want to tackle specific health issues and improve their overall wellness.

I spent time working in larger practices that lacked the personalized, proactive approach most people need and deserve. I would see 8–10 clients per day with only five minutes between appointments. It was frustrating to spend hours each day talking to people and not have the time to spend making a plan to help them.

Becoming a mother has also guided me to this decision — balancing my desire to share my nutrition expertise while still being a full-time, hands-on mom.

My practice aims to provide personalized care for those with PMOS (formerly PCOS), metabolic concerns, limited mobility, or a general desire to improve their health.
