Stephanie Nicholson, RD

Welcome to My Nutrition Journey

​

Hello! I’m Stephanie Nicholson, MS, RDN, LDN, CLT—a Registered Dietitian with a deep-rooted passion for food and a commitment to helping others achieve optimal health. My journey in the field of nutrition and dietetics began with a Bachelor’s degree from the University of New Mexico and a Master’s degree from New Mexico State University. Over the past decade, I’ve had the privilege of working in a variety of medical contexts, gaining valuable experience that has shaped my holistic approach to health and wellness.

​

My Professional Experience

​

Throughout my career, I’ve been fortunate to work across diverse settings, from clinical environments to private practice. My experience spans hemodialysis, diabetes management, eating disorders, oncology, and gastrointestinal disorders, giving me a well-rounded perspective on how nutrition impacts every aspect of health. I’m also certified in Adult Weight Management and am an active member of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics.

​

A particular area of expertise for me is food sensitivities. As a Certified Lifestyle Eating & Performance (LEAP) therapist, I specialize in helping patients navigate dietary adjustments and manage food-related issues. My approach is grounded in the belief that a whole foods-based diet can be a powerful tool for healing, restoring, and protecting health.

​

A Personal Passion for Gut Health

​

One of my deepest passions is gut health. I am dedicated to helping my patients uncover the root causes of their digestive issues and guiding them on a path to better health through targeted, personalized nutrition strategies. Whether you’re struggling with chronic conditions, food sensitivities, or simply want to optimize your digestion, I’m here to support you every step of the way.

​

Beyond Nutrition

​

When I’m not working with patients, you can find me enjoying life in Tampa, Florida, with my husband. I love staying active with Lagree fitness classes, exploring new recipes in the kitchen, traveling to experience different cultures, and continuously expanding my knowledge in the ever-evolving field of nutrition.

​

My Philosophy

​

I believe that food is more than just sustenance—it’s a source of joy, an expression of culture, and a means to achieve optimal health. My mission is to make nutrition accessible, enjoyable, and deeply personal. By empowering you with evidence-based guidance and practical solutions, I aim to help you unlock the transformative potential of food to achieve your health and wellness goals.

Thank you for visiting, and I look forward to being a part of your journey to a healthier, happier life.
