            Hi there! I am Anna, and I'm so glad you're here. As a registered dietitian and certified intuitive eating counsellor I specialize in supporting folx of all shapes, sizes, and backgrounds find peace with food and their bodies. 

I take a weight inclusive and trauma-informed approach, focusing on cultivating a positive and healthy relationship with food and your body, rather than trying to achieve a specific weight or shape. I know that there is a lot of stigma and discrimination around larger bodies and I strive to create a safer and more supportive environment for all of my clients. 

My goal is to be your guide as you (re)learn to listen to your body's signals of hunger and fullness, and as you (re)build trust in yourself to make food choices that feel good and nourishing for you in your body. I also incorporate mindfulness and self-compassion practices in order to embody a holistic approach that encompasses physical, mental and emotional health. 

I would be honoured to meet you, and support you on your journey to a more positive and peaceful relationship with food and your body.

            Hello. I’m Teri and I’m a caring, understanding dietitian. I counsel people of any age who live in Alberta. I cover almost all nutrition and related topics.

Do you want to:
• Become healthier, reach a body-related (e.g. weight) goal, follow a diet or eating pattern (e.g. intuitive eating), or change a habit? 
• Save food-related money and time? 
• Prevent or treat a health condition (e.g. a digestion issue) or symptom?
• Improve your mental health (e.g. reduce stress)? 
• Feel more satisfied with who you are and what your life is like? 

We can discuss what goals to focus on and how to work towards reaching them. 

I can do many tasks such as:
• Do problem solving, find/teach information, and discuss feelings/thoughts
• Check if you’re meeting your nutrition needs
• Create resources and physical-activity/meal plans
• Guide you while you try preparing food

I can use various apps (e.g. Cronometer and Mealime) and methods (e.g. cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness).

Dietitian services are income tax deductible and I can do direct billing to most insurance companies. 

I do not cover type 1 diabetes, insulin injections, and tube or IV feeding. Also, ignore the word “specialties” and “package” on this page.

More information about myself and my services is at https://teridietitian.wixsite.com/home 

Interested? Please book a video/phone call with me or email me at teri.nutrition300@gmail.com

Disclaimer: Nutritionist vs Dietitian

In Canada, there is sometimes a difference between the terms Dietitian and nutritionist. While both titles can be use interchangeably in some provinces, this is not the case in others.

The title ‘Dietitian’ is protected by law across Canada in every province. The term ‘nutritionist’ however, is only a protected title in Alberta, Quebec, Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island.

Only nutrition professionals who are regulated and have protected titles have a legal scope of practice which includes: providing individualized nutrition counselling, medical nutrition therapy, and nutrition education to individuals with specific health concerns.

That said, while the term "nutritionist" is sometimes used on this website, it is important to note that we only work with licensed Registered Dietitians in good standing with their provincial regulatory bodies. That means you can be assured that all of our partners providing nutrition counselling meet the education and ethical standards set by all of the provincial regulatory bodies across Canada.

We strongly recommend that you consult with a Registered Dietitian (or other recognized healthcare professional such as a doctor) when you are considering making any significant dietary changes.

Rest assured that on Online Nutrition, every nutrition professional is vetted to confirm they are a Registered Dietitian in good standing with their provincial regulatory body.
