About Me
Kelsey Shriner is a seasoned professional in the field of dietetics, specializing in the treatment of eating disorders and behavioral health. With a decade of experience across various treatment settings, Kelsey has developed a comprehensive understanding of the complexities surrounding disordered eating behaviors and their impact on individuals' physical and mental well-being.
Throughout her career, Kelsey has worked tirelessly in all levels of care, including inpatient, residential, partial-hospitalization, intensive outpatient, and outpatient programs. Her expertise spans a wide spectrum of eating disorders, including Anorexia Nervosa, Bulimia Nervosa, Binge Eating Disorder, OSFED (Otherwise Specified Eating and Feeding Disorder), and ARFID (Avoidant Restrictive Food Intake Disorder).
In recent years, Kelsey has found her calling in supporting individuals grappling with binge-eating disorder and those trapped in cycles of extreme dieting and weight fluctuations. She is dedicated to not only addressing the medical complications associated with these conditions, such as pre-diabetes and type 2 diabetes, but also providing holistic support to promote a healthy relationship with food and foster sustainable lifestyle changes.
Driven by a deep-seated passion for helping others, Kelsey welcomes individuals from all walks of life who seek to navigate their struggles with disordered eating and reclaim peace with their bodies and food. She firmly believes that nutrition interventions should not be approached as quick fixes but rather as tools for long-term health and wellness, adaptable to life's inevitable changes without compromising one's relationship with food.
Kelsey's academic journey includes graduating magna cum laude from West Chester University of Pennsylvania with a Bachelor's Degree of Science in Nutrition and Dietetics. She further enriched her education through a rigorous dietetic internship program accredited by the Accreditation Council for Education in Nutrition and Dietetics (ACEND) at La Salle University in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, completing 1,200 hours of supervised practice.
Outside of her professional endeavors, Kelsey finds solace in the pages of mystery and historical fiction novels, cherishing moments spent with her loyal companion, Monkey, her beloved pup. She relishes the opportunity to reconnect with cherished friends during weekend getaways, cherishing these moments of connection and rejuvenation.
With her unwavering dedication and compassionate approach, Kelsey Shriner continues to make a profound impact on the lives of those she serves, empowering them to embark on a journey towards holistic well-being and self-discovery.
