Registered Dietitian

Location: Sandy Springs, Georgia

About Us: Our organization operates a residential treatment program in Sandy Springs, GA, dedicated to adolescents dealing with Anorexia Nervosa, Bulimia Nervosa, Binge Eating Disorder, or Exercise Addiction.

We are committed to guiding adolescents and their families toward complete recovery. Our approach equips each young person with the tools to face life's challenges without the burden of an eating disorder. We emphasize empathy, education, and family involvement as essential components of the recovery journey, helping adolescents cultivate healthy skills and a profound understanding of their unique identities.

Position Overview: We are looking for a Registered Dietitian to become a vital part of our clinical and leadership teams. This role involves regular collaboration with various disciplines to ensure the highest quality of care for our clients.

Our nutrition programming is built on foundational principles that promote health, freedom from disordered eating behaviors, and a developmentally appropriate journey toward self-trust and intuitive eating. This strong foundation allows our clients to progress from repairing their relationship with food to embracing a fulfilling, recovered life.

Our HAES-informed nutritional care includes:

• Understanding that healthy individuals come in diverse shapes and sizes.
• Believing that every body deserves nourishment and the experience of satiety.
• Focusing on behavior rather than weight in our philosophies.
• Recognizing that attempts to lose weight are not conducive to recovery from eating disorders.
• Creating open and accessible kitchen and food environments that feel homelike.
