As a registered dietitian I take an anti-diet approach to support my clients. Growing up as a "picky eater", I was always told how to eat and how much to eat. As I got older, I grew an interest for food and nutrition which led me to become a registered dietitian. Now I support individuals in creating sustainable dietary changes based on their preferences, dietary restrictions and medical history. I believe that embracing cultural foods, enjoying all foods and meeting your nutrition needs can all be done in sync. I specialize in pediatrics, women's health and family nutrition.

I sub-specialize in ADHD-tailored weight management strategies for those struggling with, meal planning/organization, irregular eating patterns & binge eating.
Anxious, depressed, or feeling like your energy and emotions are all over the place? Is food a source of comfort when feeling stressed, bored or overwhelmed?

ADHD Nutritionists and Dietitians
What is ADHD?
Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a behavioral condition characterized by difficulties in concentrating, impulsive actions, easy distractibility, and trouble staying still. ADHD is most commonly diagnosed in childhood, with symptoms starting as early as 3 years old, and is much more common in boys than girls. Individuals with ADHD often struggle to complete tasks at work or school, and they may experience challenges in their personal relationships due to communication issues. While some children may outgrow ADHD, many continue to experience symptoms into adulthood. Fortunately, there are effective ways to manage ADHD. A combination of therapy, medication, and behavioral modifications is most effective in treating ADHD.
How does nutrition affect ADHD?
While no evidence directly supports the idea that nutrition plays a causal role in the development of ADHD, nutrition can play a large role on the symptoms of ADHD. Certain foods may influence ADHD symptoms. Consumption of foods high in sugar or simple carbohydrates, such as white bread, may cause blood sugar spikes that exacerbate the symptoms of ADHD; indeed, maintaining stable blood sugar levels can be crucial for maintaining consistent energy and focus. Similarly, avoiding caffeine—found in coffee, tea, soda, and chocolate—is particularly important for those with ADHD, as excessive caffeine intake can exacerbate hyperactivity and inattention.
Can ADHD be cured with nutrition?
While no evidence currently supports the idea that ADHD can be cured with nutrition, dietary modifications alongside proven ADHD treatments may be highly effective in managing the condition. For instance, consuming sufficient protein, particularly at breakfast, has been shown to increase focus and attention, which is beneficial for individuals with ADHD. Additionally, consuming healthy fats, especially foods high in omega-3 fatty acids like salmon, can greatly improve brain health. Lastly, individuals with ADHD may benefit from the structure of a nutrition plan that ensures regularly balanced meals and consistent meal times.
When is it useful for people with ADHD to see a registered dietitian?
While many people, even without an ADHD diagnosis, may benefit from seeing a registered dietitian (RD), individuals with ADHD may particularly benefit from consultation with an RD to assist in constructing a diet that is supportive of ADHD symptom management. An RD may be able to assist clients in becoming aware of their sugar consumption or caffeine intake, for instance, and help clients develop strategies to reduce their consumption of these ingredients. In addition, RDs specializing in clients with ADHD may be uniquely knowledgeable about the effects that ADHD medications can have on food intake. Close to 80% of people who take stimulant medications, which are frequently used for ADHD, experience appetite suppression while taking the medication; RDs specializing in ADHD thus often help clients on stimulant medication for ADHD develop strategies that ensure adequate dietary intake while maintaining a high-quality diet.
