Hello and welcome! My name is Lynsey Scott and I have been a practicing Registered Dietitian for more than 15 years. I obtained my Bachelor's and Master's degree in Nutrition from Sam Houston State University in Huntsville, Texas.
My interest in nutrition began when I successfully recovered from an eating disorder during high school. From this personal experience, I have dedicated a majority of my career to helping others recover from disordered eating as well as other medical conditions/disease states that are greatly impacted by the power of nutrition therapy.
During my professional career, I have worked in various treatment settings including: acute-care hospitals, outpatient programs, cancer centers, long-term care facilities, private practice groups, and eating disorder treatment centers.
Over the past 15 years, I have had extensive experience and training in working with the following medical conditions: gastrointestinal disorders, eating disorders, PCOS, anemia, liver disorders, renal, weight management, diabetes, food allergies, oncology nutrition, sports nutrition and cardiovascular disease.
As a Registered Dietitian, I have dedicated my career to helping individuals develop healthy relationships with food and their bodies. I focus on "what you can add to your diet"- not what you have to take away. I strongly believe that ALL foods can fit into a balanced lifestyle. If you have a challenging relationship with food and your body, I will work alongside you to strengthen and heal that relationship. I live by the principle that you do not have to deprive yourself of any food groups when it comes to creating the "perfect plate" for you and your family. I can show you how to accomplish this during our sessions together!
My philosophy is there is no "one size fits all" approach to nutrition. I will work with you to create a tailored nutrition plan that fits your lifestyle.
I have been told that former and current clients really appreciate my personalized approach to nutrition! I will work together with you to create healthy meal and snack ideas that are suitable for your current health goals while taking your food preferences into account. I will also provide you with recipe ideas geared toward your health goals and/or specific medical condition.
My love for nutrition shines through when I am consulting with my clients. I am your biggest cheerleader and I am very much a "people person". I enjoy getting to know people through all walks of life. My approach is rooted in empathy, and I strive to create a safe, supportive space where you feel heard, respected and in control of your health journey.
Outside of my professional life, I am a passionate "foodie" and enjoy trying different cuisines and restaurants in town. I also enjoy traveling and my goal is to see all 50 states within my lifetime! I am a native Texan and live with my husband and three children.
Thank you for taking the time to learn more about me and my approach to changing lives through nutrition! I look forward to working with you as we transform your journey toward better health!
