Looking for a local nutritionist...eating disorder recovery knowledge a BIG plus
I don't know why this is so hard to find, but what I'm in need of is a good, old fashioned nutritionist. Back in the day, this was a fairly common practice but when my doctor refers me to someone (and it's always the same people at Salem Health who work with diabetic patients - and I am not diabetic -) I get told, "We don't do that here."
I realize the internet is full of "help" but what I need is someone to sit down with, analyze eating habits, then put together an actual PLAN that is easy to follow. Apps don't help because I won't use them. I want a human who is schooled in nutrition to help me navigate recovery from an eating disorder.
I won't even judge them if they've never worked with eating disordered people. I just want a smart person to help me. Recovering from an eating disorder is so hard, because we have to eat to live. Blargh. And, thanks in advance.
