All clients are ideal...they come with their own individual nutrition issues. As a Registered Dietitian it is my hope that we can come up with a plan of action to meet their needs. By giving the client time to communicate what they have been dealing with and coming up with goals together....the support can come in a gentle and nurturing environment. Many clients come in not knowing what to expect or are scared of making changes. That is not unusual. Helping them see what they can accomplish and breaking it down into manageable pieces can decrease the anxiety of coming in.

You might be dealing with constant bloating, food anxiety, or feeling out of sync with your hormones. Maybe you’ve been told to just “fix your diet,” but deep down, you know there’s more going on. You want to understand what your body is trying to tell you and feel more at ease with food, your cycle, and your digestion. You care about your health and want a supportive, calming space to explore the root causes of your symptoms. You’re seeking a gentler, more mindful approach to feeling grounded, nourished, and connected to yourself.

Have you been struggling with weight loss or changing your body mass (reduce fat and increase muscle)? Have you tried EVERY diet out there? Do you often hear the food police: "Don't eat that" "That's unhealthy" "Eat this, not that"? Do you feel guilt with eating certain foods and/or do you have an all-or-nothing mentality when it comes to food (ie: Well, I already ate some so I may as well have the rest!)? Do you wish you could cook more and eat balanced/nutrient-dense, but you don't have the time, knowledge, or energy to do so?

If you are having trouble adapting to life with an autoimmune condition, you are not alone. Many look for natural options to support autoimmune conditions but expert guidance for this is not readily available in the conventional medical system. Whether you were just diagnosed or have been struggling for years, you can benefit from the support of an autoimmune wellness expert. From autoimmune friendly recipes, supportive supplements and herbs, or guidance on underlying health imbalances, I strive to help you feel your best, and in control of your health, despite autoimmunity.

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.

Women's Health Nutritionists and Dietitians

How does diet affect women's health?

Diet significantly impacts women's health, and their nutritional needs can differ from those of men in both quantity and content. Generally, women require fewer calories than men, but these needs can vary greatly depending on age and activity level, with younger and more active women needing more calories than older, less active women. Additionally, certain nutrients are especially important for women; such nutrients include calcium for bone health, iron for blood health, and folic acid for reproductive health and metabolism. A diet rich in these nutrients is essential for overall well-being for women and a diet rich in such foods ensures that daily requirements are being met.

What foods are most important for women?

The most important foods for women can vary depending on their age and life stage. For instance, older women at risk of or diagnosed with osteoporosis may need higher levels of calcium and vitamin D, which are found in dairy products, fish, and leafy vegetables. Younger women in their teenage and child-bearing years require more iron than older women and many men, which can be found in many nuts, seeds, dark leafy vegetables, fortified cereals, tofu, and red meat. Adult women also have specific dietary needs before pregnancy and during the postpartum period. During this time, nutrients like folic acid, found in foods such as beans, eggs, spinach, and brussel sprouts, become very important, along with ensuring adequate protein intake. Additionally, many nutrition experts emphasize the importance of fiber in women's health. Fiber, found in whole grain products, beans, berries, leafy vegetables, nuts, and fortified cereals, is essential for maintaining digestive health and overall well-being for women.

What is the link between diet and hormonal health?

Diet and hormonal health are closely linked because essential nutrients often play a key role in the production and regulation of hormones. For women's health, where hormones significantly impact development, menstruation, and pregnancy, a diet that supports hormonal balance is particularly important. In addition, women with specific reproductive concerns, such as infertility or polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), may benefit from dietary modification to improve their chances of pregnancy or reduce symptoms. For instance, many women with PCOS will increase their consumption of healthy fats and reduce their consumption of high-sugar or high-glycemic foods. Beyond reproductive health, a balanced diet supports overall hormonal health by regulating metabolism-related hormones like insulin and hunger-related hormones like leptin.

Why should women see a dietitian?

Many women can benefit significantly from consulting a dietitian to ensure they're meeting their dietary needs in both quality and quantity. This is especially true for women diagnosed with specific nutrition-related conditions like osteoporosis or type 2 diabetes, as well as those who haven't been able to manage a medical condition with traditional medical treatments. Dietitians specializing in women's health can offer valuable insights into foods that support specific conditions related to women's health, such as reducing osteoporosis in older women. They can also provide essential guidance for pregnant or breastfeeding women, or those planning to become pregnant, ensuring they consume the right nutrients for hormonal health during these periods.
