Ashley Bade, RD, LDN, CSP
As the registered dietitian at MCC, Ashley uses a self-care platform to help clients explore and evaluate their relationship with food, body, and mind. Ashley is passionate about removing the shame and guilt around foods for her clients. In a world of much misinformation, she helps clients navigate the confusing and often destructive messages by providing the latest evidence-based recommendations.

Over the past several years I have shared some very complicated and challenging clients with Ashley Bade. These clients suffer from eating disorders and other co-morbidities. In every case, she has been the quintessential team communicator and collaborator. Her assessments of clients' needs and her comprehensive treatment plans are the best I've seen. She works effectively with children, teens, young adults and parents. I highly recommend Ashley to clients of all ages, their parents, and the professional community.
