Are you thinking about taking a GLP-1 agonist and unsure what this means for you?

Or are you taking a GLP-1 agonist and are interested in learning how to adjust your nutrition and movement to support your health and manage side effects?

We’re offering a group, co-facilitated by HAES®- aligned dietitians Jennifer Heinen and Dalia Marmash. Our group is the right place for people looking to get away from social media/Dr. Google, and get information and support from experienced professionals. We’ll be hosting a judgment-free space to share your thoughts and questions about these medications, while you can connect with others who are in a similar place in their health journey.

WHEN: Four sessions, each on a Monday from 6:00-7:15pm EST: Jan 6, 13, 27, and Feb 3

WHERE: Virtual, via Google Meet

COST: $95 for all four sessions (unfortunately, there are no discounts or refunds if a group is missed)

INFO & REGISTRATION: https://www.nourishforlife.com/groups/glp1

NOTE: This group is not intended for folks with eating disorders. Our intake includes an eating disorder screening, and you may be contacted for further screening before starting the group.

We get to know more about our clients than just what they eat... we work with our clients to understand WHY. Learning about your lifestyle, stressors, mood, and external factors that impact your choices help us coach you to lean less on dysregulating and disordered behaviors.

To learn more how we use the concept of the window of tolerance in our nutrition counseling, read our latest blog post where we offer some prompts to help you understand and identify your emotions and how to respond. And if you are curious how we can help you personally, reach out to us anytime!

We can help you find practical strategies to manage your stress and anxiety around food and body image.

Our Story

Hello! I am a dietitian nutritionist based out of Cambridge, MA. I am passionate about helping my clients cultivate a healthy relationship with food, and feel well with each meal. My specialties include eating disorders and disordered eating, Intuitive Eating, nutrition for digestive health, food allergies and intolerances, women’s health, and perinatal nutrition.

I practice through a Health at Every Size® lens, and take a holistic approach – exploring how food intersects with other aspects of your life – while providing guidance based on the latest scientific evidence.

I help my clients reach their individualized nutrition goals, such as breaking free from the diet mentality, recovering from an eating disorder, improving gastrointestinal symptoms, or having a healthy pregnancy. For clients with IBS, I can guide you through a low-FODMAP eating plan – the first evidence-based nutrition therapy for irritable bowel syndrome - while minimizing the need for excessive restriction. I also have training in therapeutic modalities that I interweave with my nutrition counseling, such as Internal Family Systems and Clinical Hypnosis.

My interest in nutrition began with my love for cooking and evolved from my desire to improve my own health. I received my Master’s from Boston University and earned a certificate of training in Adult Weight Management from the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics. In the past I have worked in the hospital inpatient and outpatient setting, corporate wellness, and community nutrition. I have taught undergraduate nutrition at UMass Lowell, and provided counseling to university students at The Boston Conservatory, and currently at Boston College. I served on the board of the Massachusetts Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics for 5 years, and have been awarded Emerging Dietetic Leader by MAND in 2018, as well as Preceptor of the Year Award by Simmons College in 2019.
