Paige Kalyani

About Paige

A love for cooking and a growing curiosity in the power of food for health led me on my journey to becoming a Registered Dietitian. I hold a B.S. in Dietetics and a B.A. in Psychology and I bring six years of experience working primarily in an outpatient clinical setting. I’ll be your #1 teammate as we celebrate wins both big and small, learn the science behind choices and create behavior and lifestyle changes that will stick. I grew up in the suburbs of Philadelphia, PA but have lived in Maryland for the entirety of my adult life, where I continue to reside with my husband and toddler son.

Approach to care

My counseling and education practices are centered in current science while still honoring the whole person - addressing mental, emotional, physical and social factors that shape eating and health. My goal during sessions is to combine warm, judgment-free support with clear, action-oriented steps in order to build practical strategies that seem approachable and maintainable. I don't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach to nutrition, and the definition of "health" or what it means to be "healthy" can differ from person to person. I will meet you where you are in your own wellness journey, and together we will focus on the aspects of health most important to you.

Your first session with Paige

Expect a warm, low-pressure visit where I'll spend time getting to know your story and review your medical history so we can begin to set some short-term goals that fit your life and feel approachable. Our first session is designed to build rapport, be informative and leave you feeling more confident and excited to continue your Nourish journey. You don’t need to have it all figured out—bring where you are now and we’ll create realistic next steps together. I can't wait to meet you!

Hobbies

Outside of work I can often be found meandering through the aisles of Barnes & Noble or in my local second-hand book store. I enjoy cooking and am gradually building my confidence in baking. I am also working toward completing my first pull-up and have gotten a lot of self-fulfillment from strength-training.
