New York City Functional Nutritionist & Dietitian Counselor

Get to the root cause of your wellness and weight challenges. Implement a sustainable, customized nutrition plan to meet your health and weight goals. Reduce pain of digestive disorders. Improve symptoms of autoimmune disorders. Incorporate mindful eating in your lifestyle to improve overall wellness. Discover WHY.

 

Patient-Centered, Science-Based Functional Nutrition Counseling

Ask why.

A functional approach to nutrition is one in which an RDN analyzes the confluence of factors that might be making you feel unwell or exacerbating symptoms as a result of autoimmune problems, digestive disorders, hormone imbalances, weight gain or loss, ADHD symptoms and more.

What does a functional nutritionist do?

Our RDNs will analyze excesses and deficiencies in your diet, food-related behaviors and attitudes, outside factors like stress, the environment, cultural, and social contexts, as well as your genetic makeup.

Understanding why you might be feeling unwell, have reached a weight plateau, are struggling with hormone imbalances, or simply lack energy is the first step toward health. You will be an active part of any nutrition intervention plan as, together, with a functional Dietitian from our team, we will develop a plan together. 

Nutrition education is a key piece of coaching, including learning about nutrient-dense foods, gut health, the connection between food and mental health and more. Nutrition coaching is a way to get patients involved in their wellness plan. And a functional approach ties it all together — connecting the dots between nutrition and wellness.

Testimonials

Loving my appointments with NY Nutrition Group. They take a wholistic approach to your nutrition and health, instead of just telling you what food groups to put on your plate or to simply cut out entire foods. I better understand how food works in my body in coordination with activity, sleep, mental health and overall health and wellness. I’m so glad I found them. They are helping me heal and improve my relationship with food and my body

by – Liz Lane

Working with NY Nutrition Group was the best decision I ever made! Lisa Moskovitz is an expert in intuitive eating and eating disorders. She is truly the only person that has been able to help my eating disorder recovery. Lisa is very kind and knowledgeable! I highly recommend to anyone looking for support – Hope S.

  • I had the pleasure of working with Cassie Steinberg, Registered Dietitian over a period of 6 months. We met weekly to come up with personal health habits and fun meal ideas. What began as me wanting to lose some weight really ended up becoming a process of self-love and creating daily eating habits I could live with long-term. Cassie was creative and kind. She helped me in so many ways to accept the body I have and to nourish it daily. I highly recommend her as a Dietitian and body image guru

Have been working with Lisa for 9 months and am very pleased with the experience. I’ve seen progress toward my goals, but more importantly, the way that Lisa frames progress is holistic, balanced, and not overly obsessed with the scale. I’m grateful to have someone to share my stressors and disappointments through the process who has the knowledge and perspective to help assuage them. I’ve never once felt like I was being pushed into unsustainable habits or behaviors that are isolating. A great person to add to your care team if you want to build a healthy, realistic relationship with food and your body!

I have had the pleasure of working with Jeanne for a couple of months now and I’ve never felt better. Since I first started working with her she listened to all my goals and always gave me the best guidance and recommendations to meet my goals. I’ve noticed that I make wiser nutrition decisions since working with her and value the sessions we have

by – Maria Toro Franco

I’ve had the pleasure of working with two outstanding nutritionists. My former nutritionist left during COVID. Since then, I’ve been working with Julia DiPietrantonio. Julia is culturally competent, which is very important to me … If you’re looking to gain confidence not just a sense of control over your relationship with food, Julia is a great partner. I really appreciate NYNG, and I hope they continue to see cultural competency as a key pillar of their platform – Zahra Marie
