Grace’s Experience With Adult Eating Disorder Support
Here is Grace’s story about working with NW Pediatric & Family Nutrition in Vancouver, WA:
“I’ve been working closely with Andrea Cox, RDN, LD (she/her) at NW Pediatric and Family Nutrition for almost a year and a half now! Andrea has supported me through the ups and downs of my journey (roller coaster) and continues to make me feel seen and valued- not only as a patient, but as an individual. She perfectly balances the personal and professional niches/nuances of our work together, and inspires me to remain both determined and hopeful throughout my nutrition successes and struggles. Some of my other favorite things about Andrea are that she is eating disorder informed, she shares resources abundantly, and she validates my experiences whole-heartedly. While most of my experience has been working directly with Andrea, it is my opinion that NW Pediatric and Family Nutrition is a wonderful group who has wonderful values and cares about their clients/patients/community!”

Commonly Asked Questions
Starting nutrition therapy can feel like a big step, and it’s okay to be unsure about what to expect. We’ve put together some common questions we hear.
What happens in a session?
You and your dietitian talk about how food feels in your life right now and what’s been hard. Together you choose small steps you feel ready for, with no pressure and no judgment. Over time, those steps build into more confidence and less stress around eating.
Do you use a diet-based approach or calorie tracking?
No, we do not use dieting or restrictive food rules. Our work is grounded in helping you rebuild trust in your body and hunger cues through regular meals and gentle exposure work when needed. Healing happens through nourishment, not restriction.
How often do appointments happen?
Most people start weekly or every other week, depending on how much support feels right. As eating becomes more stable and less stressful, visits can be spread out. It’s flexible. We adjust together as progress builds.
Can recovery take time?
Yes, recovery often happens in stages. Some weeks feel strong and others may feel slower. We stay with you through all of it so you are not working through this process alone.
What makes your adult eating disorder support different?
Our focus is on steady nutrition support that fits real life. We do not use strict food rules or restrictive plans. Instead, we help you build balanced eating habits that support long-term well-being and reduce stress around food.
How do I know if I need support for eating concerns?
You may benefit from support if food feels stressful, confusing, or emotionally heavy. This can include skipping meals, feeling guilty after eating, or feeling out of control around food. We help you find patterns and create more stability with eating.
