About us
Can you imagine a life that doesn’t revolve around finding the next fad diet, constantly trying to lose five pounds, or being hyper-focused on how you look at all times? Maybe you long for this sort of freedom but have no idea where to start. You dream of the mental space you’d have to focus on anything and everything else. You might wonder if it’s even possible to break free from these patterns and struggles that have held you back for so long. But wouldn’t it be amazing to have the mental space to focus on everything and anything else besides food and your body and truly be living your life free of these all-consuming thoughts?
It is possible. We’ve seen it firsthand with the hundreds of women that we’ve helped. Just like you, they were consumed by thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that revolved around food and their bodies. But with our help, they’ve been able to make lasting changes and live more meaningful, fulfilling lives that aren’t dictated by how they look or what they eat. And you can too.
At Jill Gulotta Nutrition, we empower women to take their lives back, feel good in their bodies and heal their relationship with food. Our team of registered dietitians is here to help you break free from toxic diet culture and focus on your mental, emotional, and physical health—not arbitrary beauty standards that are impossible to actually fulfill.
We don’t provide quick fixes or one-size-fits-all nutrition advice. Rather, we offer customized, in-depth one on one counseling for women who want to change their mindset and habits for good. We’re committed to helping women get to the root of their challenges with food and body image so they can find real, lasting peace. Unlike other dietitians, we take a therapeutic approach that creates sustainable, long-term change (no quick fixes here) so you never return to this toxic place again.

How our nutrition counseling services can help
Each person has different goals for working with a nutritionist in New York City. We’re dedicated to meeting each client where they’re at and tailoring our nutrition counseling services to your specific needs. With that being said, here are a few ways that we can help.
Recover from your eating disorder
As clinical nutrition professionals, we’re well-equipped to treat all eating disorders. Some eating disorders we frequently treat include anorexia, bulimia, and binge-eating disorder. As registered dietitians, we can provide the medical nutrition therapy that is sometimes necessary for people in the throes of an eating disorder.
Shift disordered eating patterns
Many people struggle with eating disorder behaviors that don’t meet the criteria for a clinical eating disorder diagnosis. However, they can still benefit from the support of a nutritionist for eating disorders. We support people with any form of disordered eating patterns in our private practice, whether or not there is a diagnosis.
Develop positive relationships your relationship with your body & food
You don’t need to wait until your physical or mental health is “bad enough” to get support. Diet culture impacts us all, and so many women struggle with the harmful effects. If you want to learn how to stop obsessing about changing your body we can help.
Why choose Jill Gulotta Nutrition
Wondering whether we’re the best nutritionists in New York for your specific needs? Here are a few key reasons to consider working with us. If you’re still not sure, we encourage you to schedule a free discovery call to get all your questions answered.
We take an in-depth approach to help you find lasting results.
Diet culture gives you broken promises for quick fixes. At Jill Gulotta Nutrition, we’re not about that. You’re not a problem that needs to be solved—you’re a person that deserves peace, joy, nourishment, and fulfillment. Together, we’ll take a deep dive into the patterns that keep you stuck in a less-than-ideal relationship with food and your body.
We’re your partners in this process.
The shame embedded in diet culture makes us feel like we need to hide our true selves away and deal with our food and body issues on our own. But it doesn’t have to be like this. Our nutritional therapists are committed to walking this journey with you and giving you the support you need to make real, sustainable changes.
We believe in abundance, not restriction.
Toxic diet culture is all about deprivation. Our registered nutritionists in New York, NY flip that on its head. We want to discover what we can add into your life, not what we can remove. Instead of focusing on weight management, restrictive food choices, or cooking only “healthy” recipes, we want to add joy and abundance into your life. This often looks like incorporating sustainable nutrition habits alongside foods that simply make you feel happy.
We take a holistic approach to nutrition counseling.
While conventional medicine (including other nutritionists) preach that a “healthy diet” is everything, we recognize the importance of mental and emotional health in addition to physical health. We believe that “healthy” eating involves nourishing your mind, body, and spirit all at the same time. The only “unhealthy” foods are those that have expired or that trigger your food allergies!
FAQs about working with a nutritionist in New York City
Are nutritionists work seeing?
Yes! Nutritionists are absolutely worth it. While you might feel stuck in the seemingly-endless cycle of crash dieting and hating your appearance, we firmly believe that it doesn’t have to be this way. Working with a nutritional therapist in NYC can give you the freedom that you’ve been longing for. It can also help to have the support and accountability that working with a professional can offer.
But you don’t have to take our word for it. There are plenty of studies (check out this meta-analysis) that show all the great psychological benefits that intuitive eating practices can have. That’s why it’s especially beneficial to work with non-diet dietitians (like us!) to give you the support you need to make these changes in a sustainable way–and get to the root of your struggles with food in the first place.
Plus, the effects of not getting help can be detrimental. Untreated eating disorders can have harmful (and sometimes deadly) effects on a person’s health. For example, this study examines the negative cardiovascular health impacts of different eating disorders.
Is seeing a nutritionist good for weight loss?
While some dietitians offer weight management services, we don’t believe this is an effective approach. We recognize that health is so much more than the size of our bodies, and that focusing on weight alone often has more negative than positive effects.
At our practice, we help people embrace their bodies and nourish their mental, physical, and emotional health. We empower women to discover what they want and need, rejecting what diet culture has pushed on them and getting in tune with their values. Plus, we get to the root of what drives your challenges with food or your constant desire to be in a smaller body. By uncovering the source, we can help you find lasting relief.
What’s the difference between a dietitian and a nutritionist?
People often use the terms “dietitian” and “nutritionist” interchangeably, but they are different. A registered dietitian has earned a degree in a nutrition-related field, completed thousands of hours of supervised practice, and passed a national licensing exam.
The title “nutritionist” is less regulated. Some nutritionists have education and formal training, but there is no standard training or credentials required for someone to be a nutritionist. At Jill Gulotta Nutrition, we’re all registered dietitians who are qualified to provide clinical nutrition counseling services.
