Dr. Young is not only a renowned leader in the nutrition field- Best Selling Author, NYU Professor, and esteemed guest speaker- but also a warm-hearted and compassionate counselor. My 15-year-old daughter took to her immediately. They explored her unhealthy eating habits and emotional issues around food without shame and arrived at sensible, sustainable, and satisfying meal-planning strategies. If you are looking for a nutritionist to develop a healthy relationship with food, break old habits and make lasting positive changes, I cannot think of anyone better qualified Than Dr. Young.
