Nutrition Counseling Near Me | Taralee, Registered Dietitian Nutritionist
Non-Diet, Weight-Neutral Nutrition Counseling in Greensburg and Online Across Pennsylvania
Hi. My name is Taralee, and I am a registered dietitian nutritionist. If you have been searching for nutrition counseling near me and quietly dreading the appointment, I want you to know this is a different kind of visit. I have worked in this field for almost five years and in healthcare for more than ten years, and I hold a master’s degree in Nutrition Education with additional credentials in mental health and behavior. I see clients at our Greensburg office and virtually across Pennsylvania.
Throughout my experience, it has been my mission to create a space where inclusivity and comfort thrive. Discussing food habits and diet-related matters can be difficult and nerve-wracking, especially when you are afraid of being judged or scrutinized for just eating.
A Non-Diet, Weight-Neutral Approach
I am aware that many people picture a dietitian as the food police, someone who hands out restrictions and deprivation. I can promise you that is not the way I approach things. As a non-diet dietitian, I would rather go deeper into the why. I want to know your habits, behaviors, traditions, beliefs, and your understanding of what food is and means to you.
There is no such thing as one-size-fits-all, especially in the world of being human. The goal is to develop an understanding of what food actually is and what it does once it enters the body. I want to dismantle diet culture and the diet pressures the outside world puts on us.
What Nutrition Counseling With Me Looks Like
- A conversation about your history with food, not a lecture about it
- Evidence-based nutrition information tailored to you, not to a template
- Attention to the behaviors and beliefs underneath eating patterns
- Practical, flexible changes that fit the life you actually have
- No food rules, no moralizing, no good foods and bad foods
- A pace that you set
Virtual Nutrition Counseling Across Pennsylvania
If getting to an office is the thing standing in your way, we can work together online. I offer virtual nutrition counseling to clients anywhere in Pennsylvania, with the same unhurried, non-diet approach I bring to in-person sessions. Telehealth also makes it easier to keep appointments consistent, and consistency matters far more than intensity when you are rebuilding your relationship with food.
- Secure video sessions from home, from work, or wherever you are
- The same session length and approach as an in-person visit
- Easier scheduling around work, caregiving, and travel
- In-person appointments available at our Greensburg office
