About Darian
Welcome! I'm Darian Williams, MS, RD. My journey to becoming a registered dietitian was inspired by my own family's love for food—I've always seen it as a source of culture, celebration, and love. I became a dietitian because I want to help you honor that same philosophy while you work towards your health and wellness goals. My style is built around the idea that all foods can fit into a healthy lifestyle. I'll work with you to create a plan that helps you achieve your goals, and I'm particularly interested in helping clients with intuitive eating, weight management, body recomposition, and diabetes management. I'm excited to partner with you on this journey! (Please note that I'm currently in the process of obtaining my GA LD credential.)
Approach to care
My approach to care is rooted in the belief that you are the expert of your own body. My role is to serve as your guide and collaborator. Using a motivational interviewing style, I put you in the driver's seat of our sessions. My job is to bring the nutrition knowledge, helping you understand how your body works so we can team up to set specific goals. When you leave a session with me, I want you to feel confident, understood, and clear on your next steps. We'll use the SMART goal framework to make sure the goals you set are applicable and truly feasible for your life. I'm here to coach you and provide advice, but ultimately, the path we take is one we'll build together. I'm also a firm believer that the right fit is crucial, and if our partnership isn't a perfect match, I will always support you in finding the right resources.
Your first session with Darian
Your first session is a dedicated time for us to get to know each other and lay the groundwork for our partnership. While I'll be asking questions to better understand your history, motivations, and goals, please know that this session is truly yours. I'm here to listen, and my priority is to make sure you feel heard and understood. Using a collaborative approach, we'll start by discussing your story, your relationship with food, and what you hope to achieve. You are the expert on your body and your life, and I will bring my professional nutrition knowledge to the table. We’ll work together to identify an initial SMART goal that is both realistic and meaningful to you. By the time you leave, you'll have a clear, actionable first step and a feeling of confidence in our shared path forward.
