About Nguyen

Hi, I'm Nguyen, a Registered Dietitian (RDN, RD) in New York City with 13 years of experience helping people build healthier relationships with food. I earned my BS in Nutritional Sciences from Louisiana State University and have practiced in clinical and hospital settings, community health, drug and rehab programs, and long term care. My work is grounded in empathy, education, and practical guidance you can use every day. Outside of work I love cooking, exploring food science, grocery shopping, and kickboxing. I’m here to learn your story and tailor what we do to you.

Approach to care

Together we will base our work on current evidence and translate science into doable steps for your life. I approach care with empathy and warmth, and I stay direct and action oriented so you have clear progress markers. I practice Health At Every Size by focusing on behavior, wellbeing, and sustainability rather than quick fixes or dieting. I see you as a whole person, balancing nutrition with sleep, stress, and your values. I aim to educate you so you feel confident making choices that last.

Your first session with Nguyen

Our first appointment is a calm, collaborative conversation. We'll dive into your relationship with food, review your medical history and any lab work or biometrics, and establish a few short term goals. No pressure and no judgment; this is a space where you can be honest and curious. You don't need to have everything figured out yet. Together we'll outline 1 or 2 realistic next steps to start moving toward your goals and set the plan for our next visit.
