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.
Right Credentials
Choose a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RD or RDN) for expert advice on nutrition.

Accepts your insurance
Many insurance plans cover nutrition counseling, and yours may too. Let insurance pay for your sessions with a San Diego-based Registered Dietitian while you focus on your health. Whether it's weight loss, an eating disorder, pregnancy diet, or managing blood pressure, cholesterol, or blood sugar, your Dietitian will bill your insurance directly. With Fay, it’s hassle-free.

SoCal, Low-Cal : How to eat better in San Diego
Ocean of opportunity to get better
San Diegans are healthier than most, but there's always room for improvement. Leading causes of death here include cancer, heart disease, stroke, and respiratory illnesses. Whether you're managing nutrition during cancer treatment, reducing heart disease risk, losing weight, boosting immunity, or addressing other health concerns, a San Diego-based dietitian can help.
Decision paralysis from meal planning
Living in San Diego seems ideal for a healthy lifestyle with farmers’ markets, fresh seafood, and great weather. However, rising food costs, overwhelming choices, and managing chronic fatigue or illnesses can complicate things. A Registered Dietitian can simplify your life with customized meal plans, easy recipes, and no-cook suggestions. Let Fay’s nutritionists in San Diego help you navigate your dietary needs with ease.
Eating disorder treatment
In California, 3.5 million people struggle with eating disorders, but only 10% seek treatment. This is alarming, as eating disorders increase suicide risk and some almost as deadly as opioid addiction. Eating disorder treatment helps recovery, with 50% showing improvement and 20-30% showing partial improvement. Fay connects you with trauma-informed eating disorder experts in San Diego for anorexia, bulimia, binge eating, orthorexia, and more, all covered by your insurance.
