Registered Dietitian - Telehealth
Allara is a first-of-its-kind virtual care platform dedicated to transforming healthcare for women living with chronic health conditions. Our well-established practice delivers high-quality, patient-centered care through a team of compassionate and innovative healthcare professionals. By prioritizing patient outcomes and fostering a supportive work environment, we are redefining what it means to care for women with complex needs.
We’re looking for Registered Dietitians (RD) to help provide comprehensive and empathetic care to women with complex conditions such as PCOS, endometriosis, perimenopause and menopause, thyroid disease, metabolic syndrome, and hormonal imbalances.
Our patients choose Allara because they want an ongoing relationship with an empathetic provider who understands their complex condition. This role is not one where you will prescribe a diet or meal plan. Our program encourages an evidence-based, yet liberalized diet, in conjunction with mindful eating techniques. Allara's Nutrition Team takes a weight-neutral approach and a health-first approach when addressing health and wellness concerns while offering support and advice to those interested in and appropriate for weight loss.
What You'll Do
- Analyze intake assessments including medical history, dietary habits, laboratory results, and more.
- Conduct diet and lifestyle counseling and education sessions via video; including offering general movement, sleep, or stress management advice as needed and related to nutrition care.
- Employ Allara’s provided nutrition training and educational materials to ensure consistent care while adapting to patient needs.
- Incorporate motivational interviewing and behavior change techniques throughout the continuity of care.
- Stay current on the latest research, including through Allara’s Living Evidence Library.
- Collaborate with APRNs and MDs involved in the medical management of your patients.
- Complete required training, and adhere to company guidelines and policies.
- Commit to a minimum of 20 hours per week conducting consults, answering patient questions, and providing nutrition and wellness guidance as necessary.

- Technical Proficiency: Skilled in navigating multiple computer screens and proficient in tools such as EMR, text expanders, Gmail, Google Calendar, Zoom, and scheduling platforms.
- Trained in mindful eating modalities: Such as Intuitive Eating.
- Flexibility: To hold space for safe patient exploration of weight change, while educating patients on the potential effects of restriction; with a default approach to patient counseling using a behavior-first, weight-neutral approach.
- Empower: Patients with tools and knowledge to self-manage care, and not only learn what to eat, but how to eat
- Practice involving other areas of wellness: Such as sleep and movement
- Continuous awareness of literature: To provide up-to-date and evidence-based care
