How can we help?
Nutrition is not just about WHAT you eat. Nutrition is how you eat, why you eat, your feelings about food, and your ability to eat it. Healthy eating involves knowing what foods support your body (and mind) and having the confidence to eat them without fear, guilt, stress, or worry. It is possible, and it is waiting for you!
If your answer is "yes" to one or more of the questions below,
contact us so we can work together to bring the good back into your nutrition!

Kayla Stanton, MS, RDN, CEDS
Founder / Registered Dietitian Nutritionist
Hi, I'm Kayla, an anti-diet dietitian helping people find more peace in a "diet crazy" world. One of my greatest joys is in helping my clients develop positive relationships with food and restore trust with their bodies. I also love nutrition education and helping my clients cut through the noise of toxic nutrition misinformation while breaking away from any shame and guilt associated with eating food.
My approach with clients is non-judgmental and collaborative, meeting people exactly where they are and working with them to create meaningful and sustainable changes. I believe anyone can improve their health AND learn to trust their body and mind when it comes to food and eating... no matter their current situation or past experience.
Ruth Breeden, RD, LDN
Clinician / Registered Dietitian
Hello! I’m Ruth, a Registered Dietitian who loves helping others achieve balanced nutrition to fuel their lifestyle. I am passionate about empowering clients to take small, individualized, sustainable steps today by meeting them where they are- because there is no “one size fits all” approach that works or lasts. I work with a range of clients helping them with both chronic illness management (diabetes, renal/kidney, digestive, heart, etc.) and preventative nutrition counseling. I'm especially enthusiastic about women’s health and the many facets that impact overall wellbeing.
When I’m not meeting with clients, I enjoy trying new recipes, listening to podcasts, traveling and spending time outdoors with my husband and two Auskies (Aussie/Husky mix).
Avery Scuderi, RDN, CDN
Clinician / Registered Dietitian
Hi, I’m Avery, a HAES-aligned registered dietitian who is passionate about helping others on their journey to find food freedom. My mission is to support those trying to break free from diet culture and re-learn how to eat without guilt or shame. I support clients of all ages in making peace with their relationship to food and body.
I value the importance of compassion and flexibility, recognizing that treatment is never a formulaic approach. I believe breaking down goals into small, digestible bites is what builds foundational and sustainable change. I enjoy educating and coaching those looking to overcome food rules and become more attuned to the inner wisdom of their body and learn to trust themselves again.
Brooke Lancaster, MS, RDN
Clinician / Registered Dietitian
Hi, I’m Brooke, a Registered Dietitian passionate about helping people develop a positive relationship with food. I enjoy helping people find the truth in a world full of nutrition misinformation and toxic diet culture. I do this through nutrition education and by collaborating with my clients to create sustainable changes.
When not working with clients, I enjoy traveling and being outside with my spouse and do. One of my personal goals is to visit all the National Parks in the United States.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Registered Dietitian?
Anyone can call themselves a "nutritionist" even without formal qualifications or experience. Someone who only calls themselves a nutritionist may be practicing without any formal education or any governing body to hold them accountable.
Registered Dietitian Nutritionists (RD/RDN) are nutrition experts and health care providers who have met (at minimum) the following criteria:
Completed at least a bachelor’s degree at an accredited university
Completed an 8-12 month accredited supervised practice program.
Passed a national exam administered by the Commission on Dietetic Registration (CDR) and maintained active registration status
Regularly complete ethical and professional continuing educational requirements to maintain certification
Will my insurance pay for appointments with a RD/RDN?
All of our providers are in-network with Aetna, Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna, UMR, and United Healthcare.
Even if we are not in network with your insurance, you may still qualify for out of network services. If your insurance has out-of-network nutrition counseling benefits, you will be provided a document called a "Superbill" that has all the necessary information to submit to your insurance company, which may then reimburse you directly, according to your benefits.
After requesting an appointment, use the button below to input your insurance information, and we will check your benefits at no cost to you. If all of your information is entered correctly, we should be able to get back with you in 2-3 business days.
If you have more questions about insurance or billing, please feel free to contact our office.
