About Amanda Akbar

Amanda Frothingham is a former professional dancer turned Registered Dietitian. Her interest in nutrition began during her recovery from an eating disorder when she was introduced to the career. Seeing her dietitian’s impact on her life inspired her to pursue becoming a dietitian, hoping to make the same positive difference for others. Her experience in clinical nutrition at NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital enables her to work with individuals facing a variety of conditions, including digestive diseases, diabetes, sports nutrition, and more. Amanda believes everyone deserves nutrition care and uses a personalized, realistic approach when setting goals with her patients. Understanding that nutrition is an ongoing process, she incorporates weekly check-ins and maintains communication outside of sessions to provide the most effective support and help patients reach their goals efficiently. Amanda emphasizes that nutrition is not one size fits all. Her mission is to simplify nutrition care by creating small, achievable weekly goals tailored to each patient’s lifestyle. She truly believes in the power of food freedom and strives to ensure that, regardless of your goals, you feel heard, supported, and challenged when working with her.
