I’m Carly - a RD-N specializing in eating disorders, disordered eating, mental health, & body image. My clients and I work 1:1 at the outpatient level to support their individual health concerns. Not all of my clients have diagnosed eating disorders - some of them have developed habits over the years that they'd like to change, need accountability for their health and wellness goals, or thanks in part to media representations about how we "should" look or "should" eat or "should" exercise, they just got confused along the way of how to relate to their own body. We fix that here.

Whether you desire to lose weight, manage diabetes, lower cholesterol, reduce FODMAPS, manage IBD/SIBO, navigate food allergies, increase energy, or enhance sports performance, I can help. Eating well isn't about "boring" foods. I enjoy helping people discover ingredients that provide nutritional benefits & also pack flavor. I realize that we all have lives to live and not everyone has hours to devote to food prep. Through ongoing nutrition counseling, I provide you with a nonjudgmental space to help make sense of the abundant nutritional information and to collaboratively develop a personalized eating plan with your health goals.

The best part of working with my clients is seeing the mental shift that occurs with nutritional therapy. I work with a lot of people who have been imprisoned by restrictive diets and have beaten themselves up for years because they feel like a failure. At Nutrition Unveiled, the most important thing that occurs is developing a positive relationship with the mind, body, and food, and learning to nourish and treat the body rather than deprive and hurt the body. Happiness creates a much deeper level of health than any number on the scale ever will!
