Madelyn Ciskowski

About Madelyn

Hi, I’m Maddy—a Connecticut-based registered dietitian with a deep passion for helping people feel their best through food and lifestyle. With a strong foundation in clinical nutrition, I currently work in the inpatient hospital setting, supporting trauma and burn patients on their healing journey through personalized nutrition strategies. I also assist non-trauma patients in managing chronic conditions by creating realistic, sustainable changes tailored to their unique lifestyles. Beyond the hospital walls, I bring experience in sports nutrition, weight management, intuitive eating, and general wellness. Whether you're an athlete looking to optimize performance, someone navigating chronic illness, or simply seeking a healthier relationship with food—I’m here to guide you every step of the way.

Approach to care

My approach to care is rooted in empathy, science, and a non-diet philosophy that empowers you to build habits that last. I love working together to figure out what makes sense for you—your goals, your lifestyle, and whatever challenges you’re facing. I also embrace the “Every Food Fits” philosophy, which means that there is room for that cookie and salad in your meal! Finding sustainable habits is all about balance. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, supported, and excited about making changes that truly work for your life.

Your first session with Madelyn

In your first session you should expect to do a lot of talking about YOU! I want to get to who you are including your reason for coming to a dietitian, your current lifestyle, any concerns you may have about starting this process, and everything else in between. From there we can go into the basics of what our time will look like when we work together and help to "lay out" what the plan will be to help you achieve your goals!
