“Lindsay is incredibly kind and patient. I never thought I'd be able to have a decent relationship with food, let alone a good one, until our work together. She went above and beyond to help me in my recovery, all with understanding and humor. I cannot recommend her enough!”

“Lindsay was able to help address my needs by targeting her guidance according to my specific conditions rather than offering generic advice. I really appreciated that. I was also surprised by a piece of advice that not only offered benefits in one way, but would also help lower the risk of something I have in another way. That really shifted my perspective on how I should be approaching and balancing my nutrition.”

Experienced, evidence-based care
Lindsay Wengler, MS, RD, CDCES, CNSC
I'm a registered dietitian, certified diabetes care and education specialist, and clinical nutrition support clinician with 10 years of experience and more than 7 years working in advanced clinical settings. My background includes nutrition care in hospital, inpatient, residential, PHP, and IOP settings, with a particular focus on eating disorders and complex health and nutrition needs.
I bring that clinical experience into private practice with a warm, individualized approach, combining evidence-based nutrition care with an understanding that food is about much more than nutrition.
I love food, and I believe it plays a much bigger role in our lives than simply nourishing ourselves. Food is culture, comfort, celebration, connection, routine, and pleasure. Your nutrition care should make room for all of that, too.

“First time seeing a nutritionist and Lindsay has exceeded my expectations. She is incredibly gentle with her approach and goal setting, and takes the time to get a holistic understanding of your health/concerns. I am very comfortable speaking with her, and her times work well for working professionals not avail during business hours. I feel incredibly supported even though I am struggling with my health”
