Supporting You with Type 2 Diabetes, Heart Health, and NAFLD

Lily Barrett, Registered Dietitian in Vancouver, BC, specializes in helping individuals navigate Type 2 diabetes, high cholesterol, and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) with a compassionate, client-centered approach. We understand that managing these conditions can feel overwhelming—and that traditional advice often ignores your unique lifestyle and preferences. That’s why we do things differently.

Our Approach: Intuitive, Personalized, and Sustainable

We believe you are the expert on your own life. Our work together will honor your experiences, preferences, and needs while guiding you toward evidence-based changes that support your health.

Using intuitive eating principles, Lily will help you:

  • Build a better understanding of your body’s hunger, fullness, and satisfaction cues

  • Let go of rigid food rules that can harm your relationship with eating

  • Make gentle, sustainable nutrition changes to support balanced blood sugars, healthier cholesterol levels, and liver health

We don’t believe healthy eating means giving up foods you love or doing a complete dietary overhaul. Instead, we work together to identify gradual, realistic changes you can actually stick with. Whether it’s tweaking your meals to support balanced blood sugars, adding heart-healthy choices you enjoy, or finding easy ways to protect your liver health, our goal is to make sustainable progress at a pace that feels right for you.

Supportive, Non-Judgmental Nutrition Counselling

Our sessions are a safe, non-judgmental space where you can share your challenges, celebrate your wins, and receive the caring support you deserve. We’ll help you sort through confusing nutrition advice, focus on what matters most for your health, and move forward with confidence—one gentle step at a time.

Our sessions create a safe, caring space where you can:

  • Explore your relationship with food without shame or fear

  • Receive ongoing support to build sustainable habits

  • Celebrate your successes—no matter how small they seem

Healthy Eating Without Deprivation

  • Delicious foods that work for your health conditions

  • Flexible meal ideas that keep you satisfied

  • Strategies to enjoy social events and family meals with confidence
