Registered Dietitian Nutritionist
Hello! I’m Patience, an eating disorder registered dietitian in Maryland. I see clients in Greenbelt and Columbia, as well as virtually across the US.
My mission in life is to help people have fun eating! Food shouldn’t be stressful and planning your next meal shouldn’t be complicated. If you experience guilt around eating, struggle with identifying hunger and fullness and want to find peace around food, I can help!
Together, discover how to have a simple, healthy, and sustainable relationship with food and your body.

My Approach:
I approach nutrition through a Health at Every Size lens, moving away from unsustainable diets and incorporating the principles of intuitive eating.
I spend time getting to know my clients and learning about their recovery, so we can make a plan to help them along their journey. Through our work, they build a foundation of nutrition information, which helps them feel more confident about making nutrition decisions on their own. Eating disorder recovery takes a village, and I work with other members of the treatment team so my clients receive the best care possible.
