Registered Dietitians We Recommend

I'm a licensed clinical social worker, not a physician, dietitian, or pharmacist. Nothing on this page is medical advice or a recommendation to take any supplement. If you're considering nutrition or supplement changes for your mental health, talk with your doctor, psychiatrist, or a registered dietitian first.

We're often asked whether nutrition or gut health plays a role in OCD, anxiety, or mood. It's a real and active area of research, and it's also outside what a therapist is qualified to advise on directly. When clients want to explore that piece, we refer to registered dietitians.

  • TLB Nutrition Therapy — tlbnutritiontherapy.com. A group of registered dietitians in Austin and Dripping Springs offering a non-diet, weight-inclusive approach.

  • Empathy Nutrition Therapy — empathynutritiontherapy.com. A group of registered dietitians in the greater Austin area, also weight-inclusive and non-diet.

On the gut-brain connection specifically:

  • Yes. Professional consultation is available for OCD, trauma, ERP, and misophonia cases. Visit our Professional Consultation page to schedule.

  • Some are. We disclose that at the top of this page and only recommend tools and products we actually use ourselves.
