Diana Lipson-Burge, RDN, CEDS

Diana dramatically changed the way I perceive client-therapist relationships and my own history of disordered eating. Id show up to sessions ready to be judged for having slipped up and prepared to defend myself for trying my best and just not knowing the difference between disordered behavior and recovery-oriented behavior. I got caught being so self-conscious of every potential misstep, but every time Id show up to session, Diana would love on me and in not so many words, assure me that my best is the point and there was nothing to forgive myself for. She encouraged me to be curious about my behaviors and replace my default to punish myself for being imperfect with unconditional self-gratitude. When I couldnt trust myself, I thank god I had Diana to trust to make sure I was in step with recovery. She reminded me consistently that part of being recovered is shirking perfectionism and that recovery is a series of choices. And through her teachings and demeanor, Diana made herself into a dear friend, one I always knew would be honest, loving, and compassionate before anything else. She made herself available outside of sessions and was quick to embrace me anew after I discontinued sessions for a couple years. I cant express the depth of my gratitude for Diana sufficiently, she was instrumental in my learning how to recognize myself for my inherent qualities rather than my body or the rules for keeping it thin and unfeeling. Im still on the journey, but without Diana Id still not know self love is even possible. Diana will forever be in my heart and the cheerleader roaring in the back of my head

Diana is quite literally a life-saver. I had a 7 year long history of eating disorders and a chronic stomach disorder and she helped me recover within 6 months. It may have been hard work but her approach is like no other nutritionist. She combats difficult thoughts and self hatred with kindness and science! Diana keeps up with the latest studies and knows what she is talking about. I have learned so much about my body and intuitive eating while working with her.

It isnt an understatement to say that Diana has been life changing for me. When I first came to her, I only had a small handful of foods I could tolerate with my severe IBS. I couldnt eat at most restaurants and I was really frustrated to be eating the same meal three times a day every day. Diana completely changed all of that for me. Within a month, I had nearly tripled my food diversity and my stomach healed over the course of a few months. She is beyond helpful and makes personalized recommendations for me based on the way my body breaks down food. Working with her has been a godsend. I can now eat so many yummy foods with ease and go to so many restaurants with no stress. Thank you so so much Diana!!
