Integrative Nutrition Counseling

​Being well-nourished and emotionally satisfied by the food we eat can be really challenging when there are so many opinions out there about what and how we SHOULD eat. As integrative and functional dietitians/ nutritionists, we use an approach that doesn’t just look to manage or prevent a disease, but takes a deeper look at the root causes, genetic predisposition, physiological, psychological and interdependent factors that contribute to disease. With this information, we help you find the eating style that works best for YOU and YOUR body so that you can feel your best.

We utilize principles of Intuitive Eating, Eating Competence, and Health at Every Size to help clients be in-tune with internal appetite cues and achieve health from the inside out.

Specialties include:

• Food sensitivities​, leaky gut, SIBO
• Irritible Bowel Syndrome (IBS)​
• Diabetes & Gestational Diabetes
• Eating disorders (anorexia, bulimia, binge-eating, orthorexia, ARFID, & more)
• Chronic dieting & weight concerns - PLEASE NOTE:  We do not help clients lose weight. Instead, we focus on other more meaningful indicators of health. As a result of working with us, clients with weight concerns frequently describe finding a more peaceful relationship with food and body, as well as a deeper, more intuitive understanding of what and how much their body needs to feel its best.
• Plant-based diets (vegetarian, vegan, whole food plant based, etc.)
• ​Migraine and other headaches
• ​Wellness counseling

WHO:  General adult nutrition appointments can be scheduled with Geanna Revell, RDN. Eating disorder appointments can be scheduled with Raven Bonnar-Pizzorno, RDN.

WHERE:  Appointments available in-person at our Seattle office, or virtually (also called telehealth) to clients in Washington and certain other states. If you do not live in Washington, please contact us.

HOW OFTEN:  ​The frequency of appointments is dependent upon your current nutrition status and goals. Most clients are seen every 2-4 weeks. ​It is common to meet more frequently in the beginning and then less frequently as time goes by. Nutrition counseling is most effective when you have regular appointments to check in on progress, receive nutrition guidance and develop new goals.

Don't Have A "Problem"?

That's great! Good nutrition is preventative medicine. And insurance companies recognize that now, which is why most plans cover wellness nutrition check-ups under your preventative health benefit. That means your nutrition appointment(s) may be covered in full with no cost to you.*​
*Plan benefits vary greatly so please check with your insurer to verify your nutrition benefits.

Working with Marlene has been great. I felt safe and comfortable having open discussion about food and learned many helpful tips for healthier eating, including recipes to make my life easier and a killer grocery list! I also learned about managing weight and how diets don't really help. She helped me set attainable goals and try new things. I definitely recommend Marlene!

​Before I started seeing Marlene, I wasn't really sure about how a nutritionist would help me. I realize now that I had more of a problem than I thought and I'm making positive steps towards healing my relationship with food and my body. I needed a good coach and Marlene has been that. She is compassionate and knowledgeable but isn't afraid to ask hard/uncomfortable questions. I like her approach to food. It's steady and grounded. I've needed that. Thanks Marlene!

[Marlene] is helping me to address many decades of overeating so I can enjoy life without bingeing and eating compulsively. What I like most about Marlene is how she is teaching me how to eat, with less emphasis on what I eat. And we address the why - she is every bit as intuitive and understanding of what got me here as any therapist I've ever seen. It's up to me, but I do think I'm learning a new way of eating that I can follow the rest of my life.

Gave me some tools to thinking about my body that I had not thought of before, provided clear and attainable guidelines for selecting meals and offered several great resources for further self-exploration. Looking forward to seeing her again.
