Eating disorder nutrition therapy
Food can feel calm again.
Liz Brown Nutrition is a group of non-diet, weight-inclusive Registered Dietitians supporting eating disorder and disordered eating recovery. We see clients virtually and in person in Austin.
No meal plans handed to you on day one. No weight talk you didn’t ask for. We start where you are.
Who we work with
Care starts with a conversation, not an intake packet.
People in eating disorder recovery
Whether this is your first time asking for help or your fifth round of treatment, we work at a pace your nervous system can tolerate. Sessions are collaborative: we look at what eating actually looks like for you, and we focus on your goals.
People healing their relationship with food
Chronic dieting, disordered eating and body image struggles don’t need a diagnosis to be deserving of support. We help you make sense of nutrition information, cultivate mindfulness with food choices, and build habits that hold up in real life.
People looking for weight inclusive nutrition support
Have you been diagnosed with a medical condition and don’t know where to start? You may be afraid of triggering disordered eating, or not want to miss out on the joy of food. We will help you sift through the misinformation and what works best for you individually.
What we treat
Our practice is weight-inclusive and grounded in Health At Every Size® and Intuitive Eating principles. This means we build a relationship with food that holds up in real life, rather than a set of rules that only works on “good” days.
How the work goes
Four stages, though they overlap and repeat. Recovery is not linear and the plan flexes with you.
Inquiry

Initial consultation
A 55+ minute session covering history, medical picture, current patterns and what you want life to look like.
Weekly sessions
Typically 55 or 30 minutes. Practical structure, nutrition education, and steady guidance toward your goals.
Stepping down
We space sessions out as things steady, and stay available for check-ins when life gets loud again.
It takes a team!
Liz Brown Nutrition is a group of non-diet, weight-inclusive Registered Dietitians. We are here to support those seeking eating disorder and disordered eating recovery.
We offer an affirming and accepting space for people of all identities and backgrounds. As an inclusive nutrition practice, we incorporate principles of Health at Every Size®, fat-positive care, fat liberation, trauma informed care, gender affirming care, and harm reduction.
A team, not a solo act
Nutrition is one seat at the table. We coordinate closely with the rest of your care team, and can refer you to clinicians we trust if you’re still building one.
Therapists
We have a network of trusted clinicians across the Austin area, plus telehealth options across Texas.
Physicians
Primary care and adolescent medicine providers who monitor labs and medical stability without weight-focused messaging.
Higher levels of care
If outpatient isn’t enough right now, we’ll say so, and help you find a residential, PHP, or IOP program and stay involved through the transition.

Common questions
Do I need a referral or a diagnosis?
Some insurance plans do require a referral. No diagnosis is needed; struggling with food or your body is reason enough to reach out.
Do you weigh clients?
Only when it’s clinically necessary, and never without talking it through first. Closed weights are our standard, and you can decline weighing altogether.
Will you give me a meal plan?
Sometimes structure helps early on, and sometimes it makes things harder. We decide together, and it’s a scaffold rather than a rule.
Do you offer virtual appointments?
Yes. For most outpatient nutrition work, virtual care is as effective as meeting in person.
