Virtual nutrition counseling across Maryland
Maryland Dietitian for Compassionate, Non-Diet Nutrition Counseling
Work virtually with a Maryland registered dietitian offering weight-inclusive support for eating disorders, disordered eating, ADHD, PCOS and PMOS, digestive concerns, chronic dieting, and complicated relationships with food.
Specialized care without the commute
All appointments are provided through secure telehealth. You can meet from home as long as you are physically located in Maryland at the time of your session.
Who Can Work With a Maryland Dietitian Online?
Virtual nutrition counseling is available for adults ages 18 and older who are physically located in Maryland at the time of their appointment. I work with individuals seeking eating disorder recovery support, body image healing, and sustainable nutrition without rigid rules or diets.
My work is informed by:
A weight-inclusive, non-diet approach
Lived experience
ADHD-informed care
Creativity and flexibility
A belief in collective care and justice

What sessions are like
What to Expect From an Online Dietitian in Maryland
Sessions are collaborative, conversational, and grounded in your everyday life. You do not need to prepare a perfect food log, know exactly what you want to work on, or prove that your concerns are serious enough.
Step 01
Begin with the full picture
During the initial assessment, we talk about your eating patterns, health history, relationship with food, current stressors, access needs, goals, and what previous nutrition care has been like.
Step 02
Create a realistic starting point
Together, we identify what would be most supportive now. That might include more consistent nourishment, meal structure, food exposure, symptom support, care coordination, or reducing anxiety around eating.
Step 03
Adjust as your needs change
Follow-up sessions provide space to troubleshoot barriers, notice patterns, practice new skills, and adapt the plan without turning flexibility into another standard you have to meet perfectly.
WHO YOU’LL BE SITTING WITH
Hi, I’m Alison
I’m Alison Swiggard, MS, RDN, LD, a non-diet registered dietitian and eating disorder dietitian in Maryland. I believe nutrition counseling should feel like a place where you can exhale.
I especially love supporting adults who feel like traditional nutrition advice has never quite fit, including people navigating eating disorder recovery, disordered eating, body image distress, ADHD, anxiety around food, chronic dieting, or a long history of feeling “too much” or “not enough” in their bodies.
