I’ll tell you THIS instead ⬇️

As an e@t!ng d!sorder dietitian helping folks heal their relationship to food + body, this is SUPER important for everyone I work with.

I’m not never going to:

❌ force you to weigh yourself
❌ make you track your eating
❌ tell you to lose weight

Why?

Because these aren’t very helpful strategies for recovery from an ED or disordered eating.

In fact, focusing more on numbers and tracking and weight loss often keeps the ED brain engaged.

So you’ll never find me putting emphasis on numbers, and instead, we focus on the bigger picture of YOU.

When working with me in nutrition counselling, I WILL say things like:

✅ your body deserves to eat enough food daily
✅ there is no one-size-fits-all meal plan
✅ you are WORTHY of recovery at any size

Because recovery is nuanced. It’s messy, it’s not clear cut, and it’s probably not going to move forward if we’re reinforcing diet culture standards.

I know it’s hard work, and…

You can do hard things.

Keep showing up. Keep working at this. It can get better. And you don’t have to do this alone.

THIS is why ⤵️

Something I hear ALL the time as a dietitian helping folks with their relationship with food is this:

“I’m too busy to eat at work”
“I can’t eat at work because no one else does”
“I just don’t have time to eat”

And honestly…I get it!

Work pressures and even day to day stressors can pull us away from taking time to slow down and properly nourish ourselves.

No matter what’s going on in your day, you are deserving and worthy of nourishing yourself.

Your body literally NEEDS fuel to keep going! Honestly, most humans do best when eating something every 3 hours.

No need to apologize for taking time to eat, even if it’s in a meeting.

You are worthy of nourishing yourself every day, multiple times a day 💕

Need a little help supporting your eating some someone who won’t tell you to step on the scale or force you to follow a rigid meal plan?

As an RD for 12+ years, THIS is what matters ⬇️

Oh have we met yet?

Hi! 👋 I’m Courtenay, an eating disorder dietitian helping to guide adults forward with recovery.

And I love reminding folks that carbs are NECESSARY (and delicious!).

Food doesn’t have to be overly complicated. And, when you’re recovering from an ED, sometimes it still feels messy.

That’s where I come in, and why I created this account!

👉What I mean (as a dietitian) ⤵️

First off, hi! 👋

If we have not yet had the pleasure of meeting, I’m Courtenay. I’m a dietitian helping people heal their relationship with food.

Over the past 12+ years, I’ve worked with SO many different people…and I’ve noticed a pattern.

A lot of people aren’t CONSISTENTLY feeding themselves with ENOUGH food throughout the day.

And it’s often because they’ve been taught to limit their eating. For “health”. For weight. To take up less space.

If this feels like you, you’re not doing anything wrong. You’re navigating a world riddled with diet culture and confusing nutrition information.

And that’s a lot!

Eating enough food and consistently doing so, can be one of the most important parts of healing your relationship with food.

I believe in finding a way of eating that actually SUPPORTS your life. I believe recovery from dieting/d!sordered e@t!ng is possible.

And I believe in you 💕

Hello!

I’m Courtenay (she/her), a Health At Every Size® advocate and Non-Diet Registered Dietitian. I am registered with the College of Dietitians of Ontario and am a proud member of Dietitians of Canada. I received my Bachelor of Science in Nutrition with Honours from Acadia University and completed my dietetic internship in Truro, Nova Scotia. I started practicing as a clinical dietitian in Calgary, Alberta working in long term care in 2014. I then transitioned to work in a hospital with both inpatients and outpatients. I have since gained experience working with patients with eating disorders, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), osteoporosis, high blood pressure, food allergies/intolerances, and more.

I am currently living in Hamilton, Ontario where I started my private practice focusing on eating disorders. In my practice, I am dedicated to helping people make peace with food and their bodies. I am also a group facilitator at Body Brave Canada. I am offering weight-inclusive nutrition services through in-person and virtual appointments.

Areas I currently am specializing in are:


  • Eating Disorders including anorexia, bulimia, binge-eating disorder, EDNOS (Eating Disorder Not Otherwise Specified) and ARFID (Avoidant Restrictive Food Intake Disorder)
