Grace and Food.
Hi, I am Dawn White, Registered Dietitian and Certified Eating Disorder Specialist. My passion for nutrition began as a love for science and the human body.
Over the years, my love for nutrition and science along with many life experiences has grown into a passion for helping others navigate their relationship with food and their bodies. I have learned that this is a very personal, intimate relationship. With a posture of compassion and respect, I work to incorporate many tools including education on nutrition, counseling methods, compassion and listening, options for meal planning, mindful eating, faith and more as we work together to find peace, healing, improved life, and hope.
Over the past 25 years, I have supported healing by providing nutrition support and counseling in several areas including diabetes, heart disease, kidney disease and dialysis, gastrointestinal concerns, weight management, pediatric and family nutrition and more. Over the past 9 years, I have worked with disordered eating and eating disorders in residential and outpatient levels of care and earned my Certified Eating Disorder Specialist certificate in 2023. I am passionate about nutrition along the life cycle in a non-diet, weight-neutral format. From working with children and adolescents (along with their parents) to adulthood, menopause, and the later stages of life, finding a healthy, balanced relationship with food brings peace, quality of life and support for health.
In other areas of my life, I love spending time with my husband and three daughters, music and piano, swimming, reading, and hanging out with friends.
I look forward to getting to know each person who chooses to work with me, including their values and goals, as we work together to find grace and peace with food.
