HOLLY BRYANT RD, CDE
About Me
I believe all bodies of all sizes, shapes, races, cultures, abilities, gender identities, and ages deserve respect, love, and equal access to care.
I value each persons own lived experience.
​
I practice trauma informed care and have compassion for behaviors built to serve as coping mechanisms or to help with survival on any level.
​
I believe I have certain privileges as a healthcare provider to do my own work to dismantle systems of body oppression including weight sigma, ableism, racism, sexism, and healthism.
​
I work rooted in a compassionately curious lens so, together, we can gain information about eating behaviors.
​
I believe in flexible, personalized eating that is a response to internal cues of hunger, satiety, appetite, nutrition, and pleasure.
​
I believe peace with eating is attainable.
