Maria Taylor MS, RDN, CD
​(she/her)

I am passionate about helping you achieve your goals—whether it's reaching a new personal record, feeling more in control of your eating habits, or improving your blood sugar. While I am an expert in nutrition, I believe you are the expert on YOU. My role is to help you prioritize what matters most to you and equip you with the practical tools and knowledge to implement sustainable nutrition habits that support your long-term success.

Nutrition has the power to transform your health and life, but it doesn’t need to be a source of stress. I’ll work with you to find flexibility with food, so you can reach the right balance between satisfaction and health, allowing you to build habits that last. If you feel out of control with food, struggle with repetitive dieting, or find it hard to make lasting changes, I’m here to guide you on a journey of self-discovery. Together, we’ll take a big-picture approach to uncover and address the root causes of your eating challenges, helping you reconnect with your natural ability to regulate your eating. My goal is to empower you with self-knowledge, putting you in the driver’s seat so you can find both enjoyment and nourishment with food.

I also specialize in sports nutrition—helping athletes improve performance and recovery. With my holistic approach, we will work together to optimize not only nutrition, but also sleep, supplements, and training with the latest science-based recommendations. I understand your unique needs and challenges as an athlete and will help you implement realistic dietary changes specific to your sport and lifestyle. While athletics can be a hotbed for body and food struggles, we will focus on nutrition that supports your strength, endurance, and power while fostering a positive relationship with food and your body.
