About Jennifer Neale, RD | Nutrition IQ | Ottawa, Ontario

About Jennifer

Jennifer Neale, Registered Dietitian and Certified Intuitive Eating Counsellor based in Ottawa, OntarioNutrition IQ Inc. is owned by Registered Dietitian Jennifer Neale. Jennifer Neale is a Registered Dietitian and Certified Intuitive Eating Counsellor in Ottawa, Ontario. She has a Masters Degree from McGill University and is a member of both the College of Dietitians of Ontario and Dietitians of Canada. Jennifer became a Dietitian in 2012 and has been working in various sectors within the world of dietetics ever since. This has included working in community health and diabetes education, private practice, insurance, workplace wellness, and software development.

In 2017 Jennifer became a mom to a wonderful little girl. This really changed the way in which she practices Dietetics. After suffering from her own eating issues in University, she did not want her daughter to grow up in an environment that prioritized body size above all else. As a result, Jennifer uses a Health at Every Size® approach in her practice combined with the principles of Intuitive Eating. You can learn more about this philosophy here.

Now a mom of two, Jennifer uses her expertise as a non-diet, weight-inclusive Dietitian and Certified Intuitive Eating Counsellor to help clients achieve their health goals at any body shape and size. She is very passionate about helping other women, especially other moms, find food freedom and rejoin the table. She believes that if you want to raise intuitive eaters, you have to do the work yourself first and be the example. If you're ready to get started on your journey towards becoming an intuitive eater and having a better relationship with food, click here.

Online Programs

In addition to working with clients one-on-one, Jennifer also offers two online programs that are available to anyone around the world. 

Finding Your Fit

Created by Jennifer Neale, RD, and Fashion Stylist Rebecca Rowe, Finding Your Fit is an online program that teaches you how to improve your body image AND cultivate a personal style that celebrates your body as is.

How many times have you put on an outfit that didn’t quite fit, and then go the whole day feeling uncomfortable and self-conscious?

Maybe you have a closet full of clothes that don’t fit well, and you are hoping that one day, your body will magically shrink to fit them.

If you feel like you’ve tried everything to change your body, with the hope that once it fits that one shirt, dress, pair of jeans, etc… your body image will suddenly improve, you are not alone.

What if you could let go of this belief, and start embracing and respecting your body, as it is, here and now?

That’s why we’ve designed Finding Your Fit - to help you cultivate a better body image and develop your personal style. Our online self-study program will help you nurture respect for your body as-is while also equipping you with the tools you need to build a wardrobe that screams ‘you’.

The Nourished Mama

The Nourished Mama is an online program created by Registered Dietitian Jennifer Neale and Clinical Psychologist Dr. Melisa Arias-Valenzuela. The Nourished Mama walks busy moms through the principles of Intuitive Eating while also providing a safe and supportive community to cheer on, lean on, and learn from.

If you’ve been working on ditching dieting and improving your relationship with food, you know how difficult it can be when it feels like everyone else close to you is still dieting. The Nourished Mama is an online group program designed to teach you about Intuitive Eating, a compassionate, self-care eating framework that treats all bodies with dignity and respect. This program will also teach you how to apply the principles of Intuitive Eating to your life in addition to providing you with the social support that you’ve been missing.
