Founder, CEORachel Harvest MS, RDN, CDN, IFNCP

I am a registered dietitian specializing in eating disorders, functional and integrative nutrition, and behavioral health. My background in classical ballet and Pilates gave me a deep understanding of anatomy, movement, and the mind-body connection. Through this lens, I developed a method incorporating functional nutrition, DBT, CBT, and mindfulness to ensure personalized, holistic care that supports sustainable healing and growth.

I guide my clients using four key pillars: self-knowledge, self-care, self-trust, and self-respect, helping them achieve balance, health, and longevity. My clients are often high-performance individuals who seek to maintain peak wellness and long-term success. I look forward to meeting you and supporting your journey!

As a dietitian specializing in eating disorders and mental health, I help individuals heal their relationship with food and body while working towards optimizing their overall well-being. My approach is holistic, with personalized plans that cater to each client’s unique needs. I find joy in supporting individuals on their health journeys towards a more authentic and nourished life. In addition to my work in nutrition, I am an artist and a lover of the outdoors, drawing inspiration from the beauty and balance found in nature. I bring this same focus on cultivating balance into my work with clients, helping them achieve harmony in both their physical and mental well-being.

As a Registered Dietitian, I look at the body as a whole and a person in their entirety, exploring the physical, mental, and emotional manifestations of health.  I work with both children and adults, specializing in eating disorders, mental health, gut health, and a variety of chronic conditions (diabetes, GERD, high cholesterol, etc.). Working with the human body means I am a forever student, and my approach encompasses ongoing education in functional medicine, eastern medicine, and herbalism.

My personal experience with my body has been quite a journey, but ultimately a blessing, as I feel having gone through and healed from an experience provides you with the knowledge and compassion to guide others in doing the same. I am fortunate enough to have healed from an eating disorder that began at a young age, as well as my own gut health issues, successfully fostering my body back into balance. My path to healing resulted in a deeper understanding and relationship with my body, and is a gift I hope to give to those who work with me. Where applicable, I provide my clients with guidance and tools that I used from my own healing journey, as well as my professional knowledge.

I’m passionate about the human body and its brilliance, and absolutely love what I do. Outside of my work, I love running, fitness, hiking, and all things outdoors.

I am passionate about guiding you toward your health goals, whether they be healing your relationship with food, your gut health (IBS, GERD, dysbiosis), or autoimmune conditions. Having personal experience with healing my own body and connection with food, I bring compassion and empathy to every session and tailor counseling to each individual’s needs. I approach health as an integrated system, understanding that our parts are not separate but a symphony working together. I aim to help you find long-lasting habit changes to achieve your goals and whole-body wellness using techniques and tools such as CBT, emotional regulation, and other modalities. In my free time, I love trying new recipes, spending time in nature, and getting quality time with loved ones.
