About

Hi, I'm Karen — a dietitian who believes food shouldn't take up this much space.

Karen Diaz, RD

I'm a registered dietitian in private practice specializing in eating disorders, disordered eating, and the in-between — the part where food feels louder than it should, where bodies feel like battlegrounds, where families don't know how to help.

I started this work because I saw too many people handed a meal plan and sent home. Real recovery doesn't live in a meal plan. It lives in the moment you stand in front of the fridge and don't know what to do. In the lunch you skip without meaning to. In the conversation with your teenager that ends in tears.

My job is to be there for those moments — with practical tools, lived clinical experience, and the kind of steady, honest support that helps the noise quiet down.

If you're tired of fighting your body, exhausted by food rules, or watching someone you love struggle, you're in the right place.
