Emily Bejtlich, MS, RDN is a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist who is particularly
passionate about eating disorder and addiction recovery. Emily has a strong
clinical understanding of human physiology and nutritional science which informs
her medical nutrition therapy work, and holds a Bachelor and Master of Science
degree in Dietetics. Emily has worked with clients across the continuum of care,
and currently treats eating disorder clients at the partial hospitalization, intensive
outpatient and outpatient levels. Emily also supports clients with co-occurring
mental health diagnoses, OCD/OCPD, trauma and substance abuse. She is a
member of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, the International Association
of Eating Disorder Professionals, and the International Federation of Eating
Disorder Dietitians. Emily consistently collaborates with other dietitians and
healthcare professionals in the field to ensure that each client is uniquely
understood and supported.
Emily is particularly fascinated by how the fields of physiology, psychology and
spirituality merge, and sincerely believes in her clients’ ability to discover freedom
in body, mind and spirit. Emily has extensively practiced and integrated the
philosophies of Buddhism and Taoism into her life’s work, and holds the vision
that we all have the ability to cultivate an inner atmosphere of clarity and peace
by consistently investing our energy into behaviors that honor our intuition. Our
relationship with food is often a microcosmic expression of our inner world, and is
therefore a tangible opportunity for healing and self-discovery. Emily embraces
the principles of intuitive eating in her approach, and sees the flow of mindful
eating as a way to integrate joy, energy, pleasure and presence into daily life.
