ALLISON VOGEL, MS, RDN, CDN
Over the past 12+ years as a registered dietitian, I've helped hundreds or people lose weight, improve their health, and build a healthier relationship with food. My passion is helping clients cut through the confusion and "food noise" to create sustainable habits that fit real life. I've worked with individuals and families, helping them to navigate everything from weight management and menopause to eating disorders, emotional eating, and digestive diseases.
My goal is to educate, support, and empower you with practical tools and not overwhelm you with rules or restrictions. I don't believe there's a one-size-fits-all approach to nutrition. Every person has a unique story, lifestyle, and relationship with food. I believe lasting change comes from understanding the whole picture. I help clients understand the "what, why, how" of nutrition. What we eat based on the latest nutrition science and individual health needs. Why your eating habits have developed including the roles of hormones, emotions, stress, environment, and past experiences. How to make small, impactful changes that become provide longterm results. By understanding the physical, emotional, behavioral, and environmental factors that influence your eating habits, we can build realistic strategies that lead to lasting success.
Education and Credentials:
I earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Exercise Physiology from Skidmore College in Saratoga Springs, NY where she also competed on the lacrosse team. She then received her Masters degree in Nutrition and Exercise Physiology from Columbia University in New York. Allison completed her didactic internship also from Columbia University.
HEALTH IS SO MUCH MORE THAN JUST WHAT WE EAT...
We are born natural intuitive eaters. Kids innately balance their food intake, eating when they’re hungry and stopping once they feel full. As we grow older we create rules around food and lose our inner intuitive eater. We learn that food is for celebrating, for self-soothing, and just for "something to do."
Intuitive eating is not a diet. It’s a way to learn to eat outside of the diet mentality, with a focus on using your own internal hunger, fullness, and satisfaction cues to guide eating choices. It's about thinking what foods you really like and how to appropriately have them. We look at the WHY you eat just as much as the WHAT. No rules, restrictions, and definitely no "should" and "shouldn't."
