About Emily Burns
Emily is a registered dietitian with a Master’s in Nutrition and Dietetics from Northern Illinois University, where she also completed her Dietetic Internship. She earned her Bachelor’s degree from Benedictine University. Emily is passionate about helping individuals heal their relationship with food and has dedicated the majority of her career to working with both children and adults in Eating Disorder recovery across Residential, Partial Hospitalization, and Intensive Outpatient levels of care. With extensive experience in higher levels of care, she demonstrates expertise in managing and treating various eating disorders.
Emily strongly supports the idea that all foods can fit within a balanced diet, promoting a non-restrictive approach to eating. This philosophy aligns with her goal of helping clients find food freedom—where they make choices based on their desires and needs rather than rigid rules. She understands that this work can be challenging and is committed to bringing the positivity and authenticity that every individual deserves. Whether you are just coming out of treatment or embarking on your recovery journey, Emily is here to provide the support you need.
Her approach is client-centered and holistic, recognizing that individuals are not defined solely by their dietary struggles but are complex beings with unique needs and emotional experiences. By providing a safe, compassionate, and empowering environment, Emily aims to help clients build a healthier, more positive relationship with food and, in turn, with themselves.
In your first session with Emily, she will dedicate time to get to know you and conduct a comprehensive nutrition assessment. This includes discussing your medical history, medication and supplement use, lab work, hydration and nutrition status, and other relevant topics.
