Rebecca Tolan, RD

I’m Rebecca! I’m a Registered Dietitian with more than 3 years of diverse experience in the nutrition field.

​

I first obtained an undergraduate degree in Accounting in 2018. After working in public accounting for a summer, I knew my heart was in health and nutrition - not accounting - and I decided to go back to school to become a dietitian.

​

I completed my DPD coursework (the coursework required to get accepted into an internship program, the almost-final step to become a dietitian) at CUNY Queens College. I was then accepted into Sodexo’s Dietetic Internship program and completed my clinical training at Lenox Hill Hospital in Manhattan. I spent additional time in the ICU and NICU, as well as completing a rotation with BALANCE, a renowned eating disorder treatment center in Manhattan.

​

At the same time as my dietetic internship, I obtained my Master’s degree through a remote program with the University of Rhode Island. I focused my research primarily on screening for eating disorders amongst bariatric surgery patients.

​

I now primarily work at an eating disorder treatment center in Greenwich, and I’m super passionate about helping people win their lives back from their eating disorders.

​

As a “thyroid warrior” and Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis sufferer myself, I’m also passionate about nutrition for thyroid health, as well as women’s health topics such as PCOS and pre, peri and postnatal nutrition.

​

My counseling style is compassionate and exploratory. There is no one-size-fits-all approach to nutrition, and I find most success with my clients through a collaborative, flexible approach.
