DIETITIAN COACH 365

A tuition-based, 1-year program for registered dietitians new to private practice who are seeking in-depth training and growth-oriented mentorship to become an effective and confident Dietitian Coach.

We want to fix the massive training gap in dietetics, so that you can effectively guide your clients through meaningful nutrition changes—not just educate.

HERE’S WHAT KEEPS US UP AT NIGHT…

Our mission is to provide accelerated and rigorous training and development that aims to close this skill and knowledge gap for dietitians. The hope is that this changes the trajectory of dietitian careers and gets them into high-paying roles or starting high-profit private practices sooner than without this support. Dietitian Coach 365 students will also be considered for a Dietitian Coach role with All Access Dietitians at the completion of the program.

IT’S NOT JUST EDUCATION, HANDOUTS, AND MOTIVATIONAL INTERVIEWING.

What is the Dietitian Coach Approach?

As dietitians, we are trained to complete nutrition assessments, make personalized recommendations, and provide evidence-based education to our patients and clients.

And one reason we get into this field is because we want to help people improve their nutrition to increase the quality of their lives. But the typical training does not adequately address the behavior change coaching skills needed to guide your patients through difficult health changes.

We have tools to help them in the contemplation and preparation stage, but what about the action and maintenance stages? Our Dietitian Coach Approach applies the latest research in nutrition, motivation, and sustainable behavior change. Using this approach is like having a superpower. You’ll transform into a gold-standard Dietitian Coach that provides excellent care and behavior change guidance, has high retention, does more fulfilling work, and creates incredible impact on their patients’ lives.

We're committed to elevating dietetics, one dietitian at a time.

Since 2009, Founder, Jenny Westerkamp, has been passionate about helping registered dietitians launch their careers with confidence through her other company All Access Dietetics. Through meeting and speaking with thousands of future and new dietitians, she found a training gap that prevented new dietitians from feeling confident and having the skills necessary to thrive in a competitive nutrition counseling role or start their own private practice. She is dedicated to elevating the field of dietetics by training new dietitians on the skills needed for exciting new opportunities for dietitians in virtual 1:1 nutrition counseling.

WHAT OUR ALUMNI ARE SAYING

“When I was in my DI, I was confused by the gap I was seeing between client education and actual behavior change. The Dietitian Coach approach helped me understand how coaching can help me support my clienth changes that actually work for their lifestyle."

Abby Davis
“The biggest a-ha moment for me was realizing that many of the challenges my clients faced while making nutrition changes weren’t due to a lack of knowledge; rather, they were due to the difficulties associated with making behavioral changes."

Eliza Whitaker
"The Dietitian Coach Approach taught me that getting client buy-in and having them be in the driver’s seat of their own health journey are critical pieces of sustainable behavior change.”

Heather Davis
"I learned the power of listening to and deeply understanding my clients, allowing them to lead in their own growth, and getting to the “why” beneath their behaviors and reasons for wanting to change."
