Frequently Asked

  • You do not need to have it all figured out before reaching out. Some clients come to us knowing exactly what they want support with, while others just know that food, nutrition, or body image has been feeling hard. We can help match you with a dietitian based on your goals, clinical needs, personality fit, insurance, and whether you are looking for in-person or virtual care.

  • A registered dietitian nutritionist is a credentialed healthcare provider with formal education, supervised training, and licensure or certification depending on the state. At CV Wellbeing, all of our providers are registered dietitian nutritionists, which means your care is grounded in evidence-based nutrition support and clinical expertise.

  • Unlike traditional dietitians who may focus on weight-centric goals, non-diet dietitians take a weight-neutral approach, emphasizing health-promoting behaviors over the number on the scale.

  • Our dietitians support clients with a wide range of needs, including eating disorders, disordered eating, intuitive eating, body image concerns, diabetes, digestive issues, PCOS, sports nutrition, chronic illness, pediatric and family nutrition, and more. Each provider has their own areas of focus, so you can read through our team bios to find the best fit.
