Maura
Benedict
Dietician
Hi! I’m Maura Benedict(RDN, CDN). I received my Bachelor of Science from Johnson & Wales University with a focus in culinary nutrition and clinical dietetics. After graduating I completed my Dietetic Internship at NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital. Since graduating, I have worked in a variety of settings, from inpatient to outpatient nutrition counseling. This has given me experience providing client counseling in both one-on-one and group spaces. Building strong foundations of trust and understanding with clients to help guide their nutrition journey is of the utmost importance to me. I focus on approaching nutrition as a safe, non-judgmental space while promoting long term sustainable changes. I believe that nutrition is not a “one approach fits all” and work hard to meet clients where they are while providing encouragement and empathetic counseling to grow.
