Hello/ Hola
Behind every meal plan, every caregiver conversation, and every small win at the dinner table, there's a clinician who genuinely understands what neurodiverse families go through — and Rosanna is that clinician. She brings over 20 years of clinical experience, a depth of medical training that sets her apart in the field of dietetics, and a rare ability to make families feel heard in both English and Spanish. If you've spent years being handed advice that doesn't fit, Rosanna's approach will feel different from the first conversation.
About Rosanna
Rosanna Alvarez is the Nutrition Director and Co-Founder of Hue Wellness, and one of the most uniquely qualified nutrition clinicians working with neurodiverse individuals today. She is a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN, LD, CD) Registered and licensed in the United States, and holds a Doctor of Medicine degree in the Dominican Republic— graduated Magna Cum Laude — from the Universidad Iberoamericana in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. After relocating to the United States, Rosanna completed her US dietetic licensure, bringing the full breadth of her medical education to her clinical nutrition practice. The result is a clinician who understands not just what a person should eat, but the full medical picture of why their body works the way it does.
Rosanna has more than 20 years of clinical experience across hospital, residential, and outpatient settings Working closely with Dr. Kennedy since 2019 as they first built the clinical model that became Hue Wellness. Together, they worked with over 20 DDS clients with strong outcomes before founding Hue Wellness in 2024.
Her areas of expertise span the full complexity of neurodiverse nutrition: sensory-based food aversions and selective eating, the metabolic and appetite effects of psychiatric medications, eating disorder assessment and treatment, individualized weight management across the lifespan, and the caregiver-centered approach that defines Hue Wellness's Support-Based Treatment model. She understands that for many neurodiverse individuals, food is never a simple topic — and she meets every client and every family without judgment, starting from where they actually are.
Rosanna is a native Spanish speaker and provides fully bilingual clinical services in English and Spanish. For Spanish-speaking families who have spent years struggling to find a clinician who truly understands their child's or family member's needs — in their language, in their cultural context — Rosanna fills a gap that is rare and significant.
She is a member of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, the Academy for Eating Disorders, and the Dominican Medical College, and holds active dietetic licensure in Massachusetts.
