About

I have 10 years of experience providing nutrition counseling as a Registered Dietitian. I have a Bachelor’s of Science in Food Science and Human Nutrition from Clemson University and completed my Dietetic Internship at University of Maryland, where I currently serve as a preceptor to current interns studying nutrition. I specialize in providing medical nutrition therapy for management and prevention of chronic diseases, including kidney disease, cancer, high cholesterol, and pre-diabetes. I also see clients who are looking to make more mindful food choices to improve their overall relationship with food and their bodies.

My coaching style

I believe nutrition should be customized to each individual, so I make it a priority to really know my clients. While working together, you can expect empathetic listening and an openness to meet you where you are in your health journey. I view health from a holistic standpoint and find the key to nutrition is balance, I never want my clients to feel deprived or restricted…all foods fit here! My goal is for you to feel both supported and empowered to live your healthiest life and achieve your nutritional goals.

Publications

I have been published in the nutrition journal Topics in Clinical Nutrition with a literature review of the Low-FODMAP Diet and a weight loss book review. I have also been featured in Hum Nutrition. I am a member of the national CSG examination writing board.

Rachel Coury

There aren’t enough superlatives in the English language for me to describe Rachel Coury. I have been working with Rachel for several months on tailoring my nutrition in order to improve my kidney health. Every step of the way Rachel has been fully engaged and extremely helpful and supportive. She is enthusiastic and truly concerned about my health. She created a personalized plan for me, under which my GFR went from 36 to 41. All my lab values have come into a healthy range in which they had never been in before, and I feel great.
