Healthy By Emily is run by myself, Emily Bixler. I am a registered dietitian nutritionist and certified intuitive eating counselor. I have completed a course on body image and provide counseling around that as well. I am also in the process of finishing up my certification as a Body Trust Provider. A lot of my work deals with eating disorders, PCOS, or GI issues. As a provider and human, I hold quite a few identities that provide me with many privileges that my clients do not have. I am a cisgender, heterosexual white woman that resides in a liberal state. I do reside in a larger body which provides me with my own set of perspectives when it comes to our fatphobic and weight centric health care system. During my time as a dietitian, I have worked with the LGBTQ+ community in various settings. I have worked as dietitian in an HIV clinic and currently see many clients in the LGBTQ+ community in my private practice. Many of my clients also reside in larger bodies and fall on the neurodivergent spectrum. I have sought out various education opportunities around LGBTQ+ care through WIND, IAEDP, and local organizations. Many of the eating disorder treatment centers I work also provide training opportunities around LGBTQ+ and gender affirming care.
