About

Val Schonberg, Registered Dietitian

Val is a Registered, Licensed Dietitian with a Master's degree in nutrition science. She works with a diverse population of individuals including adolescents, adults, and athletes. Specific specialties include nutrition for performing athletes (dancers, gymnasts, figure skaters, cheerleaders); eating disorders; and, women struggling with menopausal weight gain.

Before establishing her own practice, Val worked as a clinical dietitian specializing in the treatment of eating disorders. Along with developing skills as a nutrition therapist with a deep understanding of "change psychology", she gained experience treating a variety of medical nutrition-related conditions including cardiovascular disease, diabetes, renal, and GI disorders. Focusing on recovery, wellness and disease prevention, Val has provided clinical nutrition therapy to a diverse population of patients.

Utilizing a "non-diet" approach, Val focuses on helping individuals make behavior change with food and eating that will support their short and long term goals, while promoting overall health. Many folks agree that key components of health - exercising regularly and eating nutritious foods - are important to happiness. Unfortunately, for some, eating and thoughts about food make life more stressful, increase anxiety, and often result in feeling depressed because you can’t do it “RIGHT.” Feeling healthy and eating should not be this difficult - and meeting with a dietitian need not be another place to feel judged or shamed for food or weight. Val focuses on YOU, your values, lifestyle and your needs to find a nutrition solution that works for YOU!
