About KT Nutrition

Welcome, and thank you for visiting my site!

I am a Certified Eating Disorder Registered Dietitian (CEDRD) in the Raleigh/Durham area. I have been providing comprehensive nutrition therapy to individuals of all ages since 2011, primarily helping those ages 10-20. Seeking help for disordered eating, body image struggles, or other nutrition-related concerns can bring up a lot of different questions and emotions. I am here to help ease you into this journey with compassion and understanding.

MY PHILOSOPHY

When people hear the word Dietitian, they typically think “diet”. Well, I am not your typical Dietitian, nor do I practice nutrition in the typical ways you may think or hear of. Food labeling (“good”, “bad”, “healthy”, “unhealthy”), calorie counting, and food policing are NOT what you will find at KT Nutrition. Intrigued? Keep reading…

I believe in using a non-diet approach to food, and the philosophy that “all foods fit” when practicing moderation, variety, and balance. The human body is a powerful tool, and we are all born with the internal ability to nourish our bodies appropriately. Unfortunately, current diet culture and other external influences often create barriers between what we think we need/want and what our bodies are telling us. I believe that when you remove judgement, rigidity and shame from the equation, it is possible to remove these barriers and reestablish a healthy relationship with food AND your body.

If you or someone you know is struggling with an Eating Disorder or other nutrition related concerns, please contact me. I would love to talk with you!
