Background
Hi, I’m Beth! I am a Pediatric and Family Registered Dietitian Nutritionist specializing in eating disorders, disordered eating, pediatric feeding disorders, and pediatric nutrition. I am excited to partner with you and your family to bring more peace and confidence to eating.
I am a Certified Intuitive Eating Counselor, trained in the SOS Approach to Feeding, and bring over 15 years of experience working with children, adolescents, and adults navigating concerns such as picky eating and ARFID, feeding challenges, food allergies, gut health, and weight and body image issues. I am the owner of From the Start Nutrition, where we help parents of selective eaters and adults tired of diet culture find a clearer, more sustainable path with food, nutrition, and health.
A bit about my background: I hold a PhD in Clinical Investigation from Albert Einstein College of Medicine, where my research focused on pediatric weight management and nutrition-related behaviors in the home. I am also a mom of four, including a formerly extremely picky eater, so I truly understand how stressful and emotional mealtimes can feel when things are not going well.
I would be honored to support you—whether you are navigating challenging mealtimes with your child or working to heal your own relationship with food. I look forward to getting to know you and helping you take the next step toward calmer, more confident, and more joyful eating.

Approach
My clinical approach is compassionate, non-judgmental, and evidence-based. Together, we look beyond “just getting them to eat” or “finding the right diet” and instead address the roots of feeding and eating struggles, including behaviors, patterns, and environment that keep families and individuals feeling stuck. Care plans are individualized and may include ongoing check-ins, coordination with therapy and medical teams, and practical strategies that fit into busy lifestyles.
