It’s a question Emily gets asked often: What’s the difference between a dietitian and a Vancouver holistic nutritionist?
Dietitian:
A dietitian is a regulated health professional who often works in clinical or hospital settings. They follow government guidelines to develop nutrition plans for specific medical conditions. Dietitians must complete a university degree and licensing through a provincial college.Holistic Nutritionist:
A holistic nutritionist, like Emily, takes a whole-person, natural approach. Instead of only addressing symptoms, a holistic nutritionist looks at root causes—like gut health, lifestyle stress, toxins, and emotional wellbeing. Emily is certified through the Institute of Holistic Nutrition and works with clients one-on-one to create sustainable plans that align with their unique body, goals, and lifestyle.While both can help with nutrition, an Abbotsford holistic nutritionist is ideal if you’re looking for long-term wellness, preventative care, or natural solutions that align with your values.
-
When you book a consultation with Emily, you’re not just getting a meal plan—you’re getting a health partner. Your sessions will include:
A full health intake and symptom review
Nutritional and lifestyle analysis
Personalized food and supplement protocols
bioenergetic testing and clearing
Ongoing support, adjustments, and education
Whether you’re navigating a chronic condition, recovering from illness, or simply want to feel better in your body, Emily’s supportive and judgment-free approach as a Vancouver holistic nutritionist helps you create lasting change without overwhelm.
