Only when we are brave enough to explore the darkness will we discover the infinite power of our light

My Story
I’m Riley, a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist. I grew up in the finger lakes region of New York and completed my education in Buffalo, NY, but now call Wilmington, NC, home. My journey in this field has been shaped by my own journey in life. I have a deep passion for helping others uncomplicate their relationship with food. We all have so much going on, and being at war with our bodies is exhausting.
My Mission
The goal of my work is to help improve quality of life through food, which looks different for every person. I strive to make care as individualized as possible, while helping clients understand how the foods we eat are shaped by the lives we lead. My nutrition practice aligns with the Health at Every Size framework, and I specialize in the treatment of eating disorders and disordered eating, as well as the unique nutrition concerns that come along with neurodivergence (ADHD/ASD).
My Method
As a Registered Dietitian, I bring clients up to date evidence-based nutrition recommendations through a compassionate, trauma-informed lens. So much goes into the decisions we make around food, and my role as an RD is to partner with you to help you understand your body's needs without outside influence from a world full of nutrition misinformation. My intention is always to meet my clients where they are, and help them walk the path to wellness, whatever that looks like for them.
