Nutritionists and Dietitians in Seattle, WA

Magdalynn Hays — Maddie for short — enjoys helping her clients prioritize their health by using a “food as medicine” approach. As a practitioner, Maddie’s goal is to create a custom plan for her clients that is science-based, true to the client’s needs, and, most importantly, fits into their lifestyle. Maddie developed a profound interest in nutrition and exercise (and the intersection between the two) during her undergraduate education at George Fox University in Newberg, Oregon. Although she was a competitive athlete for most of her childhood and early teens, healthcare and science did not initially appeal to her as a career.

How many diets have you tried and quit? What if I told you that it wasn’t you failing the diet, but the diet failing YOU? Many of us grew up believing that thin equals healthy, and that sticking to rigid rules around eating and moving would lead to happiness and success. But in reality, sticking to food rules creates stronger and stronger cravings, feelings of powerlessness or guilt, and disconnection from the body’s signals of hunger, fullness, thirst, and more! Dieting can even lead to total loss of control, binge eating, and shame spirals. To heal a chaotic relationship with food, the first step is understand this cycle.

Hi, I am Jill. I am a Registered Dietitian with experience treating eating disorders, disordered eating, and chronic dieting. I provide one-on-one nutrition counseling services for adults and adolescents who are seeking to heal their relationship with food and body.

I support clients who struggle with endometriosis, unexplained digestive issues, painful periods, and weight changes. I also work alongside clients who are starting a fertility journey, are already pregnant, or are post-partum and looking for nutrition support through this life stage. Through non-restrictive lifestyle changes, we can work together to find foods that are tolerated, nourish your body, reduce inflammation, and improve your relationship with food and body.

I am passionate about nutrition and love helping people to understand its complexities without feeling overwhelmed or frustrated. I believe that food is a beautiful part of life and should be enjoyed!

I am an enthusiastic and dedicated dietitian who is also a self-proclaimed habit-itian. Why? Because I believe that maintaining a healthy lifestyle relies on our daily habits which go beyond what we eat. As a result, I can help you discover the powerful connections between stress, sleep, movement, and how they correlate to your overall health.

Do you have a chronic gut issue (such as SIBO, IBS, Crohn's, Ulcerative colitis, GERD) keeping you from feeling your best? We'll work together to develop a personalized action plan, taking your current diet and lifestyle habits, environment, gut health, genetics, family history (and much more) into account.

Whether life has just presented you with a new health concern, or you are looking to rekindle your relationship with food, or anywhere in between, I am here to help! There are many factors to consider when striving to live well, and they can understandably lead to frustration! Eating is something we are biologically required to do, so why not make it a positive experience?

Are you sick and tired of feeling sick and tired? Have you tried every diet or health hack, yet still fall short of reaching your wellness goals? I get it! We get bombarded with daily messages about quick fixes to improve our health. Only to learn they are not sustainable in the long run. So how do we actually make lifestyle changes that we can stick to, for good? Through my personal experience I have found that there is no “one diet fits all.” To find food freedom, we must listen to our bodies, and stop listening to the noise of diet culture. Once I practiced this for myself, I found that food affected my mood, digestion & energy.

Our bodies are our first homes. And yet, the struggle to belong in our skin and bones is widespread. From an early age, we are taught to mistrust our bodies; tune out its sensations and longings. We exile the parts of us that society deems unsavory to the point where the pain, grief, and loneliness of not belonging feel like our only option. You are here because you know you deserve to belong in your body. I am here to witness your journey toward building a loving and embodied relationship with yourself and the world around you.

In a world where we have unlimited access to overwhelming and confusing information about health, it can be challenging to know where to start. The foods we enjoy, our relationships with them, and how our bodies respond are so individualized that our approach has to be too!
