Nutritionists and Dietitians near Skokie, IL

As a former chef, I love food and helping people figure out ways to enjoy it… while simultaneously nourishing and respecting their bodies. Most of my clients choose to work with me to improve their GI function, enhance their metabolic health, and ultimately improve the quality of their life.

Do you find managing your diabetes overwhelming? Frustrated by the never ending need to watch your weight, seeing the pounds add on year after year, despite your good efforts? Confused about the medication you take? Are your goals to move on beyond your diagnosis, learn what you need to know about managing your condition, and ENJOY a lifestyle plan that will improve your clinical measures (blood sugar, blood pressure, cholesterol, body weight, for starters), increase your strength and energy and build your confidence as a successful self-manager?

Are you ready to ditch dieting and build a healthy relationship with food?

I've been there; exhausted and stressed out where food is my last priority. I help clients identify simple, easy ways to support their bodies.

Anxiety, Depression, Stress, ADHD, Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), and Crohn's/Colitis (IBD). These are just a few of the conditions that can be successfully treated through integrative nutrition. At Nutrition Hive, each client is treated as an individual. From diet to supplement recommendations to herbs, you'll get a completely customized care plan that addresses the root causes of your condition in order to shorten the duration and reduce the severity of symptoms.

The registered dietitians at Healthier Tomorrows are passionate about providing comprehensive in-person and virtual nutrition services to our clients, and we are committed to providing the highest level of care as we partner with our clients to help them develop a healthy and satisfying relationship with food and their body. Our goal is to empower our clients to make the healthy choices and changes they need to successfully sustain long-term recovery from their eating disorder, or to improve their overall health and wellness and feel their very best.

I am Board Certified in Integrative and functional Medicine. That means that I work with clients to find the root causes of their symptoms in a holistic way. We are learning that maintaining our gut health is the root of treating many diseases including autoimmune, inflammatory, skin, obesity, cancer, allergies, and more. I work with clients to figure out why they are struggling with a condition and treat it using food as medicine, identifying food sensitivities, providing nutrients to maximize the body's functioning, and if needed, I do cooking sessions to teach how to make healthy food taste great.

Because of my own personal health journey, I empathize with people who feel trapped and worried that their health challenges have become the new normal. I support my clients and make their voices heard in order to tackle the health challenge head-on.

Hi, I'm Stephanie! I’m a Health at Every Size aligned dietitian specializing in eating disorder recovery, intuitive eating, and weight neutral medical nutrition therapy. I work with clients to develop an individualized nourishment plan based on their hunger, fullness, and satisfaction cues – without relying on external factors like calorie counting or food restriction to guide eating. I believe that food should be satisfying, fun, and easy. I believe that wellness should be accessible to everyone. And I believe that people in all bodies deserve respectful, compassionate care.

Clients are often tired of rigid food rules and constant dieting. It can be overwhelming to be expected to change the way you eat overnight. Many times, your doctor gives limited information about what to eat and does not always have the time to go into detail about what the means for your day-to-day life.

I help those with digestive issues banish the bloat, resolve their IBS, and optimize health by using functional labs and tailored nutrition. Are you dealing with digestive issues that are getting in the way of you living your best life? Bloating, gas, diarrhea, constipation, and food-intolerances/sensitivities? Have you ever thought maybe you have leaky gut, SIBO, or parasites? I can help.

Imagine being able to trust your body again, to take what it needs and leave what it doesn’t – this opens up space to focus on what’s important (and fun!) in your life!

If food feels difficult, confusing and/or causes you worry, let’s talk about it. I’m here to help make it a bit easier. I use a nonjudgmental, weight-neutral and gender inclusive approach, to help all people realize that food can and does mean so much more than just the nutrients on the plate, and empower them that having a normalized relationship with food is possible. I believe in utilizing an all foods fit mentality to neutralize from the notion of “good” or “bad” foods. I specialize in working with adults, but can provide referrals to other providers who work with children or adolescents, upon request.
