Laura Henson
I specialize in medical nutrition therapy for adults, adolescents, and children with disordered eating patterns. I also assist and collaborate with families to navigate childhood feeding issues. I received my Bachelor of Science degree in Nutrition from Marshall University and completed my dietetic internship with Iowa State University. I worked as a nutrition educator in elementary schools with Marshall University’s Nutrition Education Program and as a clinical dietitian at Central Regional Hospital, a state psychiatric hospital. Most recently, I was a clinical dietitian at Veritas Collaborative, treating individuals with eating disorders at several levels of care including inpatient, residential, partial hospitalization, and intensive outpatient. I am a member of the International Association for Eating Disorder Professionals (iaedp) and the International Federation of Eating Disorder Dietitians. I promote Health At Every Size® principles and practice a non-diet approach. I utilize motivational interviewing and DBT skills to provide client-centered, compassionate care. I welcome clients of all ages, genders, and backgrounds. I see clients in the Durham and RTP areas in NC.
