About Rebecca
Hi there! I'm Rebecca Reich, a registered dietitian from Brooklyn, NY. As a child who was always on one diet or another since the age of 10, I became a dietitian to cut through the confusion of food, nutrition, and health. As a dietitian, I get to combine my passion of teaching and love for food into a rewarding career! I have extensive experience in nutrition counseling, with a particular passion and expertise in prediabetes, diabetes, food allergies, and pediatric nutrition. My goal is to help you take positive, sustainable, and stress-free steps to achieving your personal goals. Let's remove any fear, restriction, or stress you have around food and introduce joy, creativity, and self-care! Please know that this is a safe, judgment-free space. Youâve already taken the first step by seeking support, and Iâm honored to be part of your journey.
Approach to care
I believe that you are the expert of your own bodyâno one knows you better than you do! Thatâs why I take a collaborative, personalized approach to nutrition, where we work together to set realistic goals based on your unique needs, habits, and lifestyle. My mission is for you to leave each session feeling confident, motivated, and equipped with the tools and resources you need to make positive changes. While food is often the focus of our discussions, I recognize that nutrition goes far beyond whatâs on your plate. When you're ready, weâll also explore other aspects of your life that impact your relationship with food, health, and your body.
Your first session with Rebecca
I often warn clients that it may feel like Iâm asking hundreds of questions during our first sessionâand thatâs because I will be! Share as much as you're comfortable with in the moment, and know that we can always explore more in future sessions. The first session is all about understanding what brought you to Nourish. Weâll begin by reviewing any medical conditions, medications, lab work, and other health data. Weâll then dive into your history with food, nutrition, and dieting to identify any barriers or challenges youâd like me to be aware of. Next, weâll take a look at your current diet. This helps me tailor your goals to fit your lifestyle, so you wonât need to throw out your pantry or completely overhaul your life. Finally, weâll set some exciting yet achievable action steps to get you started on your nutrition journey!
