Female Nutritionists and Dietitians in Rhode Island

With my previous position as adolescent dietitian for in higher levels of eating disorder care, I have a special passion for eating disorder work. I may have years of formal education under my belt, but what I will never presume to know is how you “should eat.” I love helping people find an eating pattern that suits their needs, wants, and circumstances. I practice with a Health at Every Size framework that allows you to explore your health values regardless of your body size.

Do you have Constipation, Bloating, Gas, Reflux or other Gut Health Issues? Weight loss resistance can be another problem, when you have GI issues. This may prevent you from being the social person that you use to be, or decrease your ability to function optimally at work, etc. Imagine if we could resolve these issues so that you have more energy, feel social again and enjoy your family. Gut Issues may be costing you in more ways than one. Test Do Not Guess. We can do a myriad of testing to determine the exactly what foods you should or should not be consuming based on: Microbiome, food sensitvity, food additve testing.

I specialize in performance nutrition, mindful/intuitive eating, eating disorders, co-existing food fears & anxiety disorders including OCD. I believe that fueling & nourishing one’s body with awareness, curiosity & compassion are pivotal to feeling one’s best both physically & emotionally. As a weight-neutral dietitian, my mission is simple: I promote a non-diet mindful & intuitive eating & fueling philosophy, believe that ALL foods fit & that choosing foods that we find enjoyable is essential. I provide client-centered counseling. This enables us to work together as a team & places you in the “driver's seat."

I believe that everyone deserves to have a basic understanding of nutrition, and my goal is to help clients meet their individual nutritional needs and set realistic, achievable goals. I understand that improving health is about more than just “knowing what to do,” and that seeing me is often not your first step towards better health. Part of working with me is identifying and helping you overcome past and present obstacles in order to create lasting lifestyle changes.

I believe everyone has the right to live an energetic, symptom free life and have epic daily poops. Bloating, reflux, irregular bowel movements, gas, food sensitivities, chronic fatigue, weight fluctuations and skin issues are not normaI and are not all in your head. I help people struggling with chronic gut health issues overcome their symptoms through evidence based, plant centered nutrition strategies when conventional medicine has failed them. Together we will take an individualized, holistic approach to restore your gut health, calm inflammation and ditch the diets so you can feel confident in the way you eat, look, and feel.

Everyone has a unique food story, some are filled with joy or comfort and others with regret, shame and frustration. No matter what your relationship with food has been, I can work with you to make changes. If you have suffered with an eating disorder or engage in behaviors that you do not feel are "normal," let's talk and figure out how to make realistic changes that work for you. Even if you have been suffering with this for years, I can help. Do you have a diabetes diagnosis and need help with figuring out what or how to eat, do you have bloating, diarrhea and constipation and are frustrated because you don't know why?

Are you struggling with the diet cycle? Trying one after another but never able to keep the weight off? I'm going to let you in on a secret - diets don't work. You may experience success in the beginning followed by guilt if you "fall off" the plan, intense cravings and feeling unable to keep up with the strict rules of your diet, and so the cycle continues. If you relate to this maybe it's time to live a life free of diets. No more rules around food and movement. No more focusing solely on the scale. Let's heal your relationship with food and body. It's time to nourish yourself and find the joy in food again.

The diet that is right for you has no name. I know you’ve tried everything because I was you. It was not until I stopped working against my body that I learned I was in control of how good I could feel. I also know you don’t feel well. No one seems to understand why you’d rather stay home, or why it takes you so long to get ready. You don’t recognize yourself anymore. You’re tired of waiting for answers. Most importantly, you just want to feel normal again.
