Can't find the right match?
Everyone's journey is different, so your dietitian works with you 1 on 1 to provide a hyper-personalized plan
Have you tried (seemingly) every diet out there with limited success? Trying to beat prediabetes holistically? Worn out from life and know your diet could be better but don’t know where to start? Your dietitian will assess all this and more to craft a completely personalized approach for your treatment based on your goals, lifestyle, health history, motivators, and more. Fay dietitians use clinically proven methods to drive results, including goal setting, intuitive eating, nutrition education, lifestyle counseling, lab testing, and meal planning.
The world of nutrition is overwhelming. There’s so much information out there – but how can you know what’s right for you? The reality is: nutrition is complex and requires an expert’s guidance. Registered dietitians are the only nutrition professionals qualified to offer medical nutrition therapy (MNT). That means RDNs have a deep understanding of the chemical properties of food and how that interacts with one’s body on a cellular level to impact overall health. Instead of stressing out over the latest food trend, put your care in the hands of a dietitian and find ease in knowing you’re getting personalized, research-backed nutrition advice.
Ready to break free from the harsh voice in your head criticizing your every food choice? Whether weight loss is part of your goals or not, your dietitian can help calm the noise with a research-backed approach that addresses both the practical challenges of daily meals and the psychological factors of disordered eating. You can learn ways to manage your health and weight that go beyond the confines of a traditional “diet” by prioritizing balance and finding the right nutrition approach for you personally.
Accountability is a crucial factor in making any lifestyle change. Having a set weekly meeting with your dietitian – and knowing you have an expert on your side – can make a world of difference when it comes to sticking to your nutrition goals. You’ll have regular check-ins where you go over your progress and any challenges you’re facing, and together, you and your dietitian will make adjustments to account for your evolving needs. RDNs know as well as anyone that a successful plan is one that fits into your life, not works against it.
You have to make a lot of decisions every day, including what to eat. Meal planning removes the headache of that decision, and when it’s done in partnership with your dietitian, it’s that much easier to meet your goals without exhausting yourself in the process. All the hard work of figuring out how much to eat and when is already done for you – you just need to stick to the plan. Your RDN can provide meal ideas and recipes too, which can help boost adherence and make following your plan simpler and more enjoyable.
No matter why you’re getting a dietitian’s expertise, intuitive eating principles can help almost anyone cultivate a healthier relationship with food. Using behavioral psychology, intuitive eating emphasizes getting in touch with your body to better understand hunger and fullness cues, identify emotional eating, and remove any shame or guilt that might come up. With this psychological approach, your dietitian can help you calm the “food noise” in your mind to cultivate a sense of empowerment and joy in eating once again.
Meeting your nutrition goals is about more than just the food you eat. Your daily routine – activity level, sleep schedule, stress levels, work life, and environment – has a huge impact on your overall health. Your dietitian will create your personalized plan based on these factors and more. Taking this approach makes your plan more realistic, which makes achieving your goals easier. It also allows your RD to identify any potential challenges and craft a plan to overcome them.
Food can play an important role in managing chronic health conditions, but you need an expert to guide you. Fay has dietitians specializing in diabetes, IBS, PCOS, thyroid health, obesity, and more. These providers can collaborate directly with your broader care team to ensure your nutrition plan is aligned with your ongoing treatments. Your RDN can do more than just make a meal plan based on your goals and condition – they can also educate you on the key factors of eating for that condition, empowering you to continue the care for yourself.
Health is foundational to wellbeing. Fay dietitians are qualified to support weight loss, hormonal imbalances, chronic disease, and much more. Collaborating with an RDN greatly increases your chances of success in meeting your goals. Whatever your nutrition goals are, you can find a board-certified registered dietitian nutritionist specializing in that area with Fay.
Top qualifications
Registered dietitian nutritionists (RDNs or RDs) are the most qualified nutrition providers out there. In order to use the protected title of RDN, a provider must meet stringent educational and clinical requirements and be certified by the Commission of Dietetics Registration. Fay works exclusively with RDNs to ensure every client gets top-tier nutrition guidance.
Meet on your schedule
Fay nutritionists offer the flexibility of meeting either virtually or in person based on your preferences. By meeting virtually, you can work with providers across the country, opening up your options to a wider range of providers so you can find someone who specializes in your area of concern.
Accepts health insurance
Nutrition services can be over $100 per hour on average. Fay takes advantage of existing health insurance benefits to get your services covered and bills directly on your behalf so you don’t have to worry. That means you could pay as little as $0 per session.
Empathetic, experienced provider
Working with a dietitian can be an emotional and vulnerable experience as you make the necessary changes to take control of your health. Fay’s providers are heavily vetted not just for their qualifications but also their bedside manner, ensuring your experience is full of empathy and care.
What it’s like to work with a Fay nutritionist in Miami, FL
Completely custom approach
All Fay providers start with a thorough intake that gives them a holistic picture of your health, including your top concerns and every treatment you’ve tried thus far. With this intake, your dietitian will create a completely custom meal plan for you, taking into account any sensitivities, allergies, and preferences you might have.
Improved relationship with food
Working with a dietitian is a lot more than a meal plan. Your RDN will empower you with the knowledge to fuel your body properly, better understand hunger cues, and more, helping to improve your overall relationship with food.
The support you need to succeed
Your nutritionist is an educator, health provider, and cheerleader all in one. They’ll be by your side every step of the way as you take control of your health. With a Fay nutritionist, you get a true partner to help meet your goals.
Clinically proven methods
Our nutritionists use clinically proven methods like food journaling, mindfulness exercises, and meal planning to help you meet your goals. They rely on peer-reviewed research to create their guidelines, ensuring you are getting the best nutrition care possible.
Being healthy in Miami
Health in the Magic City
Miami is a relatively healthy city, with a lower-than-average heart disease prevalence and a lower smoking rate than the national average. However, many Miami residents aren’t native English speakers, which can make accessing quality care a challenge.
Miami’s favorite dishes
Cuban and Latin cuisines dominate the Miami food scene, with locals often enjoying Cuban sandwiches, croquetas, and chicharron. Stone crab is also popular, as the city has access to some of the country’s best seafood. The diversity of dishes makes it an excellent foodie destination but can make healthy living a bit more challenging.
The Miami lifestyle
Most Miami residents grow up on the beach and many love water sports as a result. On the other hand, nightlife is a way of life in the city. Balancing the two can be difficult and can lead to a lifestyle that yo-yos between health and indulgence. Working with a dietitian can help you find balance to meet your health goals.
