Our Philosophy

At Pinney Davenport Nutrition we believe that full recovery from any eating disorder is possible.

Welcome to Pinney Davenport Nutrition

Since 1997, we have been offering our clients personal support and professional resources for eating disorder recovery, Intuitive Eating, Mindful Eating, and family feeding. Each of our clients comes to us with unique needs. We address those needs by providing individualized and comprehensive care, based on the most current evidenced based, nutrition science. We adhere to a H.A.E.S informed, weight inclusive, body-positive approach. We often work as “myth busters,” helping to separate the myths from the realities around food, body size, and physical activity. 

Our areas of expertise include:

  • Anorexia Nervosa

  • Atypical Anorexia

  • Bulimia Nervosa

  • Binge Eating Disorder

  • ARFID (Avoidant Restrictive Food Intake Disorder)

  • OSFED (Other Specified Feeding and Eating Disorder)

  • Picky Eaters

  • Orthorexia

  • Disordered Eating

  • Family Feeding / Family Nutrition Concerns

  • Sports Nutrition

  • Pediatric / Adolescent Nutrition

  • Intuitive and Mindful Eating

Our primary goal is to help our clients develop a comfortable relationship with food and to develop a connection to, and trust with their bodies internal signals.  We aim to bring about lasting, realistic, and lifelong change. We will help you challenge Diet Culture messaging and misinformation. At Pinney Davenport, we believe that “All Foods Fit” and that a full recovery from any eating disorder is possible.

Nutrition therapy can be a complex process. We simplify the process by collaborating with other professionals, and by providing referrals as needed. Empathy as well as expertise is essential to establishing a safe and effective environment for healing from an eating disorder.  At Pinney Davenport Nutrition we help create that environment.
