a 5-part series to help you set up your clients for successful behavior change
It doesn't matter what your niche is
Your training (hello ADIME) focused on assessment, diagnosis, intervention, etc... (and leaves out the human aspect of building connection and support)
You have been prioritizing advancing your MNT knowledge (which is needed) but it's falling on deaf ears if you don't know how to implement it with your clients
Nutrition is a science, but eating is a behavior, and behavior change strategies were rarely discussed beyond theory...
Hi there! I'm Joyce Faraj-Ardura, CEO of The Nutrition Counseling Academy. As a registered dietitian (RD) with a passion for helping people, I've discovered a fundamental truth: it's not just about knowing the science of nutrition; it's about mastering the art of counseling and coaching.
Through years of experience working with clients in various settings, I've realized that traditional RD training often falls short in teaching us how to effectively guide individuals towards lasting lifestyle changes. Simply providing nutrition education and meal plans isn't enough – we need to have meaningful discussions and understand behavior change science to truly make a difference in our clients' lives.
After extensive professional development and teaching nutrition counseling, I recognized a shared sentiment among fellow RDs: a desire to better support our clients but feeling unsure of how to do so. It became clear that many of us were lacking the necessary tools to address the behavioral aspect of nutrition.
Driven by this realization, I founded the Nutrition Counseling Academy to bridge this gap. Our mission is to empower dietitians with the skills and knowledge they need to truly make an impact on their clients' health journeys. Because while nutrition is indeed a science, eating is fundamentally a behavior – and mastering that aspect is key to success.
Welcome to the Nutrition Counseling Academy, where we're transforming the way RDs approach client care, one behavior change at a time.
If you left your last client session of the day feeling SO FIRED UP, you can't wait to come back and do it all over again tomorrow (because you can SEE your clients come back to life in front of you because they feel SEEN for the first time in their lives)
If you could make your clients feel so EMPOWERED they are ready to take on the world because they leave your sessions thinking "I can do this and much more!"
How great you would feel if you knew you were setting your clients up to successfully make the changes they've been trying to make (and failing) for decades with easy to implement strategies so you feel like the super RD you're meant to be.
By the end of the program, you will:
know how to avoid the TOP mistakes that RDs make that's setting your client up to fail
gain NUMEROUS strategies you can use based on where your client's at to support their progress
learn the science behind the evidence-based strategies for lasting behavior change
integrate practical tips into your sessions effortlessly that will make a big difference
feel on top of your game and more confident in your approach (even with the "challenging" clients)
