Meet Lily

Registered Dietitian

Hi, I’m Lily. I’m a Registered Dietitian based in Vancouver, BC, and I support people who want a steadier, more peaceful relationship with food. My work includes supporting clients navigating gastrointestinal and digestive health conditions, metabolic liver disease, blood sugar management, heart health, menopause, PCOS, and picky eating.

I joined Shift Nutrition & Counselling because the commitment to intuitive eating and Health at Every Size (HAES®) closely reflects how I believe nutrition care should feel: respectful, practical, and grounded in real life. I focus on changes that are doable and sustainable, rather than short-term fixes or rigid rules.

Alongside my private practice work, I’ve spent the past three years at BC Children’s Hospital supporting patients with gastrointestinal and feeding disorders, including ARFID and picky eating. 

A large part of my work involves making nutrition science understandable and useful. I enjoy breaking research down into clear, practical steps that fit your routines, preferences, and goals.

My Approach

My approach is compassionate, evidence-based, and trauma-informed. I practise from a weight-neutral, anti-diet perspective and focus on nutrition by addition—looking at what foods can be added to support physical and mental health over time, rather than emphasizing restriction.

Alongside my private practice work, I’ve spent the past three years at BC Children’s Hospital supporting patients with gastrointestinal and feeding disorders, including ARFID and picky eating. This experience shapes how I work with clients of different ages and health needs, with a collaborative and thoughtful approach.

 

My credentials + experience

  • Master of Science, Applied Nutrition from University of Guelph

  • Bachelor of Science (Hons), Nutrition & Dietetics from Western University

I also acknowledges the many privileges that result from living and working on the traditional, ancestral and unceded territory of the Coast Salish peoples–Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), Stó:lō and Səl̓ílwətaʔ/Selilwitulh (Tsleil-Waututh) and xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam) Nations.  

I endeavor to be an ally and active supporter for all people, in both my personal life and workspace, who are working to create a life for themselves that does not include oppression, domination, or colonialism.

Our mission

“To help women learn how to listen to and care for their body by unlearning the pervasive messaging from the oppressive diet culture. To break the shackles of fat-phobia, transphobia, and racism. To help our clients feel like their bodies are good and healthy, so they know they are worthy and enough.”

Registered dietitian vs. nutritionist

 

Dietitians have a degree in food and nutrition from an accredited university program and undergo comprehensive and rigorous training. Just like all regulated health professionals (such as doctors, nurses and physiotherapists) dietitians are committed and required to stay on top of emerging research, skills, and techniques.
