Stephanie Byers, MS, RD

Stephanie is a certified Registered Dietician and is a member of the American Dietetic Association.  She received her Bachelor of Arts from Mount Holyoke College and her Masters of Science in Clinical Nutrition from New York University.  She has over 10 years of experience and has worked as a clinical nutritionist, creating patients’ diets to enhance their healing process or to help correct their ailments.  She has also worked as a wellness coach, managing clients’ diets to improve health before ailments manifested.  As Deepak Chopra said, “Without good nutrition, medicine is of no use.  With good nutrition, medicine is of no need.”

Stephanie likes to be thought of as a Nutrition Coach, as opposed to a dietician.  Nutrition counseling is a personal and individualized process.  Each person’s unique set of circumstances needs to be taken into account in order to create an appropriate program.  She feels there is nothing more rewarding than watching a client succeed nutritionally and discover a new world of feeling better.

As a mother of a three year old, she understands how hard it can be to eat properly while taking care of a family’s needs.  Stephanie emphasizes simple ways to integrate healthy eating into a hectic schedule.

Stephanie believes that progress, no matter how fast or slow, is movement in the right direction.  She says, “If you feel some progress in your life, you know that more progress is possible.”
