I’m so glad you’re here!
Hi there,
I’m Courtney, a registered dietitian offering weight-inclusive nutrition counseling in Georgia, Pennsylvania, Maryland, and across the US. I’m dedicated to helping people improve their health—including managing diabetes, prediabetes, high cholesterol, insulin resistance, and digestive concerns—while building a more peaceful and sustainable relationship with food. My approach combines evidence-based nutrition care with a compassionate, non-diet philosophy. We’ll work together to create an approach that fits your unique needs. That means:
We center your values, lived experience, and health goals.
We focus on meaningful health outcomes—such as blood sugar management, cholesterol levels, energy, strength, food diversity, and overall well-being—rather than the number on the scale.
We move beyond quick fixes and fad diets, addressing the underlying factors that influence health and eating behaviors.
We opt out of diet culture conditioning that’s taught you that food must be earned, movement must be punishment, and smaller = better.
We seek opportunities to cultivate autonomy, competence, and fierce self-compassion in your relationship with your body and food.
A little more about me…
I’m a native of Philadelphia and that’s where I currently live, but both Pittsburgh and Atlanta have little pieces of my heart. I earned my bachelor’s degree in English Writing from the University of Pittsburgh. After working for several fun years in the field of restaurant operations for a restaurant group in the ‘Burgh, I went on to earn my master’s degree in Human Nutrition from Drexel University in Philly, and I completed my dietetic internship at Emory Healthcare in Atlanta, GA. As an RD, I’ve worked in both inpatient and outpatient clinical settings, moving into my private practice focused on weight-inclusive nutrition counseling full time in 2019. I’m a food lover, and as an intuitive eating dietitian based in Philadelphia, I am lucky to have hundreds of yummy top-notch restaurants at my doorstep (I’m also perfectly content to munch on a Philly pretzel). I’m an avid reader and I’m in two book clubs. I love to travel, hike, listen to podcasts, and explore my city with my sweet beagle girl, Frankie.
I’m a lifelong learner, and am continuously seeking out areas for growth in my practice. Because of advanced training and continuing education, I’m able to draw from a variety of behavior change counseling approaches and techniques including acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), mindfulness, somatic therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and internal family systems therapy (IFS).
