About Letisha Hodges

I’m a registered dietitian passionate about women’s health, especially PCOS, perimenopause/menopause, hormones, gut health, and creating a healthy relationship with food. I help adults feel energized, confident, and empowered by building realistic, sustainable nutrition habits that work in the context of their real lives

This work is deeply personal to me, shaped by my own journey of overcoming gut health struggles, chronic fatigue, and an unhealthy relationship with food. After experiencing trauma as a child, food and my body became a way to cope and gain control during an uncertain time. Through years of learning, I rebuilt my relationship with food. I was eventually able to compete in a weight-class sport, making weight without sacrificing performance, mental health, or falling back into restrictive patterns.

I have a degree in Nutrition & Food Science from University of Alberta, with a minor in physical activity. When I’m not working with clients, you can find me training in Muay Thai, hanging out with my husband and dogs, or on the hunt for the perfect latte. I’m registered with the College of Dietitians of Alberta and the College of Dietitians of British Columbia.

I specialize in:

  • PCOS
  • Women’s health and hormones
  • Perimenopause & menopause
  • Weight management*
  • Sports Nutrition & nutrition for active individuals
  • Irritable bowel syndrome
  • Constipation
  • Diarrhea
  • Bloating
  • Celiac Disease
  • GERD
  • Inflammatory Bowel Disease
  • Unusual gastrointestinal diagnoses

My approach is flexible and collaborative; we’ll focus on strategies that adapt to you, not the other way around. Together, we’ll quiet the diet noise, move away from rigid food rules, and find an eating style that supports both your physical health and your enjoyment of food. I believe nutrition should free up mental space, not take it over.
