My Philosophy of Care

We firmly believe there is no “one-size-fits-all” nutrition plan for any digestive problem. That is why our team is passionate about helping you heal in a way that fits your life, without unnecessary restrictions to your diet. We also understand that gut issues can have serious negative impacts on your mental health, quality of life, and your relationship with food. And, unfortunately, that’s not something any handout or internet search can solve. That’s where we come in. Our dietitians will take time to listen, understand, and honor what is most important to you. From there, we’ll guide and provide support each step of the way through a care plan custom-made for you. Digestive Health Nutrition LLC is weight-inclusive and HAES®-aligned. We do not define health as a specific body size, nor do we focus on weight loss as a specific goal for our services. Instead, we emphasize lasting behavior changes that promote health and quality of life. Our philosophy on weight and health comes from evidence and experience showing us that weight loss does not improve health by default. (Maybe you know of some ways people lose weight at the expense of their health, too). This does not mean we are “anti-weight loss,” that we aim to prevent weight loss, or that we don’t understand having a desire to lose weight. We explore your individual health goals beyond the scale (having more energy, feeling confident, or improving health) and work on proven strategies to get you there.

Accessibility Considerations

Our services are virtually-based, making it easier and more convenient to access nutrition therapy than in traditional settings. All of our staff are welcoming and inclusive of all individuals and body sizes. We do participating in a weight-centric health insurance system that occasionally requires us to document height and weight data or BMI as part of our assessment parameters. However, we obtain consent from all patients before discussing, asking for, documenting, or submitting this kind of potentially sensitive data.
