Ashley Miller

I have had the pleasure of working with Maria Amato for several months now, and I can confidently say that she has changed my life. From our very first consultation, she took the time to listen to my concerns and understand my goals. She provided clear guidance on how to achieve my objectives, emphasizing the importance of balanced nutrition and a consistent exercise routine.

Throughout our time working together, Maria Amato has been incredibly attentive and responsive. She consistently checks in between appointments to ensure that I am staying on track and making progress toward my goals. Her personalized recommendations have been spot-on, and she is always willing to adjust her approach based on my feedback and results.

In addition to being an expert in her field, Maria Amato is also a warm and compassionate person. She truly cares about her clients' well-being and goes above and beyond to support them in every way possible.

Thanks to Maria Amato, I am now healthier, happier, and more confident than ever before. I cannot recommend her highly enough to anyone looking to improve their nutrition and overall wellness.

There are not enough good things I can say about Maria Amato! When I started seeing her 10 years ago, it was part of an intensive outpatient treatment for anorexia. It may seem counterintuitive to the mind of an eating disorder patient, but seeing Maria was the highlight of my treatment. She was so personable, compassionate, and honest that I looked forward to our sessions. She gave practical tips to my father and me to tackle the eating disorder. I am happy to say that with her help, I overcame my anorexia. I also think it speaks volumes that every other young woman that I met in treatment knew and loved Maria! Then 7 years later, at the end of college, I noticed I had gained a lot of weight and wanted to lose weight in a healthy way (being mindful that weight loss could be a trigger for me). My parents and I decided that it was important to consult Maria about this because she knew my history and we knew she would be as cautious and mindful of my triggers. I saw Maria bi-weekly for 6 months and together she helped me reach a healthy weight without triggering any of my eating disorder thoughts or behaviors.

When most people start to see a dietician, it's because they have a problem with their eating habits, their weight, their exercise habits, etc. They want to change (that's why they're there in the first place), but they don't realize how much work it takes to actually change. Maria is the kind of gal who will push you to your limits without letting you fail. When she sees someone with a goal or even the hope to change, she'll be there to catch you when you fall and get yourself back on the right track. She's a straight shooter, and it helps when so much of what we experience with changing our eating or exercising habits turns into convincing ourselves we can get away with one cheat day here or there. She'll call you out on it and teach you how to hold yourself accountable and ultimately regain control over your life. Couldn't recommend her more.

I cannot say enough good things about Maria. She is so knowledgeable in every aspect of nutrition and goes above and beyond to help with any issues you may have. Maria helped support me through the challenges I was facing and was always very encouraging. I highly recommend Maria if you are ever in need of a dietician. She is simply the best!
