Laura Gilbert

About Laura

I'm so excited you're here! My name is Laura and I am a registered dietitian currently serving the in-patient population at Bridgeport Hospital. I (unfortunately) have struggled with disordered eating as a young adult and have had to work hard to gaining a healthy relationship with food. I know first-hand how pervasive and toxic diet culture is! I am a big advocate for intuitive eating to help reach your nutrition/wellness goals.

Approach to care

I utilize an integrative approach to help you reach your health goals and truly feel your best. My goal is to never shame anyone for their current diet/exercise/lifestyle habits. I know every client is at a different place in their health and wellness journey and am looking forward to creating individualized plans!

Your first session with Laura

In your first session, I hope to explore your reason for seeking out a dietitian, your nutritional/health background, and your overall goals. By the end of the session, I hope to have set some realistic short-term goals and an action plan to help achieve them
