Lindsay Lanier

About Lindsay

I've been a registered dietitian for 17 years, with experience working with a wide variety of patient populations in acute care, long-term care, and most recently working with a kidney disease population on dialysis. Diabetes and kidney disease are two of my main interests. I believe in the importance of slowing kidney disease progression through lifestyle interventions. I also really love guiding discussions surrounding your relationship with food, emotional eating, and dismantling diet culture messaging.

Approach to care

My approach is rooted in building trust and creating a space where patients feel comfortable discussing their goals, concerns, and experiences. I prioritize rapport-building because I believe that true success in healthcare starts with a strong, supportive relationship. I generally take a weight-neutral approach in my practice, focusing on health and wellness rather than numbers on a scale. However, I am open to discussing weight loss when it's a priority for my patients. My job is to translate the science into actionable steps you can take to lead a healthier lifestyle, while being your cheerleader along the way. I also want to be a safe space for LGBTQIA+ individuals.

Your first session with Lindsay

For the first session, we are just getting to know each other! Everyone has their own story, and I want to know yours. I also know a lot of people may be nervous about seeing a dietitian, as we can cover vulnerable topics. I want to make sure you're at ease with me before we dive in deeper!
