My name is Meaghan Ormsby, and I am a Registered Dietitian (RD) and a Certified
Intuitive Eating Counselor. I specialize in Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (,
disordered eating, and intuitive eating. I have worked with eating and weight
concerns for over 10 years, providing individual
nutrition counseling as well as group education. My experience and expertise
are focused on helping individuals to improve both their eating habits and their
relationship with food using a non-diet approach. I completed my degree in
Nutrition and my dietetic internship at California State University, Long Beach.
I see many women with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) who would like to incorporate
nutrition into their PCOS treatment plan.
The research tells us that nutrition makes a significant difference and
is a first-line treatment with PCOS, improving symptoms, insulin sensitivity,
and ovulation. The goal of nutrition
therapy with PCOS is to optimize glucose and insulin release. This can be done without deprivation and
without food elimination.
PCOS Seattle is a monthly support group that I
facilitate for women with PCOS.
Disordered eating and eating disorders can look many different ways. I treat anorexia, bulimia, binge eating,
emotional eating, chronic dieting, and the variety of other conditions in which
food has become more than fuel. If you or your loved one is struggling with an
eating disorder, establishing care with a team (Registered Dietitian,
psychotherapist, physician, and sometimes a psychiatrist) allows for a
comprehensive treatment plan.
As a Registered Dietitian and Certified Intuitive Eating Counselor, I believe
that everyone has the ability to become a normal, healthy, intuitive eater.
Everyone's journey is unique and my role is to support you in your process.
Consultations available for Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS), diabetes, prenatal care,
eating disorders, and Intuitive Eating in Seattle (Edmonds), WA and Bellevue,
WA.

I accept Regence, Aetna, and Premera insurance.
