Joy Metevier, RD

I am registered dietitian with more than 15 years of experience. I started my career as an Active Duty Army dietitian. This unique training provided a fantastic base for my career as an eating disorder specialist. Since leaving Active Duty, I have continued to serve the military as a Reservist, which has allowed me to better develop and enhance my specialty skills within the eating disorder community. I currently work with a variety of disordered eating presentations including those clients struggling with food rules that prevent them from fully enjoying life. I also work with clients who are seeking to finally recover once and for all from Anorexia Nervosa, Bulimia Nervosa, Binge Eating Disorder (BED), Avoidant Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID), Orthorexia, Night Eating Syndrome, Specific Phobias such as choking – as well as any clients wishing to exit out of the cycle of yo-yo dieting and improve their relationship with food and exercise. I also helps families navigate the stressful world of having a child or teen with an eating disorder. I value a practical approach and understand that meal plans, coaching scripts and concrete goals can help clients and their families to navigate the difficult path of normalizing food behaviors and re-establishing an intuitive relationship with hunger and movement. I believe that your body is not the problem, diet culture is, and my hope would be for each client to live free from the burden of constantly striving for thinness.
