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.
How to choose a nutritionist in Seattle
Expertise in your area of concern
Nutrition is a broad field. You want to know that your dietitian has expertise in your key area of concern so you can feel confident you’re receiving the best care possible. You can search Fay by area of expertise to find a good match for your personal health goals.
Proven experience
Fay’s dietitians are heavily vetted based on their qualifications, clinical experience, and client reviews. When you work with one of our dietitians in Seattle, you can trust you’re getting someone who hasn’t just fulfilled the credentials to become an RD, but who also has the lived experience of serving clients just like you.
A good match
Trusting someone with your nutrition is a big commitment. Not only do you need to make sure they have the proper qualifications, but you also want to know that your personalities and communication styles are compatible. With Fay, you can search by specialty and read through reviews to find a provider. Not a match? No problem – you can try another provider.
Covered by health insurance
With Fay, you get top-quality nutrition care for a fraction of the price. How? Fay takes advantage of your pre-existing health insurance benefits to get nutrition services covered. Most users pay around $10 and many pay as little as $0 per session.
What makes our Seattle dietitians different
The support & education you need to succeed
When you work with a Fay RDN, you get an educator, expert, and cheerleader all in one. Your dietitian is there to empower you with the knowledge you need to take your health into your own hands while supporting you every step of the way. Having that kind of partner is exactly what you need when making changes to prioritize your health.
More than a diet – a whole health approach
Fay dietitians look at the full picture of health when making their custom plans. This isn’t a basic diet with a calorie limit and a few recipes. As a medical nutrition therapy provider, your RD can work directly with the rest of your care team to align on treatment and create a holistic approach that takes all of your care into account.
Change you can sustain
This isn’t another crash diet where you quickly lose weight only to gain it back due to the unsustainable nature. Fay dietitians prioritize a slow and steady approach and utilize proven methods like food journaling and mindfulness exercises to create lasting change.
Your personal workout & sleep regimen
With Mt. Rainier and endless outdoor adventures on your doorstep, it might be hard to balance everything you want to accomplish and know how to fuel yourself properly. Your dietitian will work with you to create a sustainable plan that includes all the summits (and trendy food spots) on your list, including getting your sleep schedule right.
The health-conscious city of Seattle
A healthy population
Seattle and King County have better-than-average health outcomes compared with the rest of the country, with a lower rate of premature death and a lower percentage of obese adults (25% compared to 34% nationally).
Well-fed and caffeinated
Seattle is known as the birthplace of Starbucks – to say it is embedded in coffee culture would be an understatement. It’s also home to some of the best seafood in the country and beloved for the local take on teriyaki. Many residents enjoy a balance of healthy, locally grown food and indulgent dishes.
Affording a healthy lifestyle
The Emerald City is one of the most expensive places to live in the country, and affording healthy food and quality healthcare can be difficult. Many Seattle residents can’t afford nutrient-dense foods and don’t have adequate access to care. Fay helps close this gap by getting your nutrition care covered by health insurance.
