Dietitian

ADCES Connect, Sterling, VA, United States


Registered Dietitian
Monte Nido Tysons Corner, McLean, VA

Monte Nido Tysons Corner, located in McLean, VA, is a primary eating disorder day treatment program exclusively for adults seeking treatment for Anorexia Nervosa, Bulimia Nervosa, Binge Eating Disorder, or Exercise Addiction. Through partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient programming, clients participate in group and individual therapy, benefit from Monte Nido’s clinical, medical, psychiatric and nutritional expertise and experience real life challenges.

We are seeking a Per Diem Registered Dietitian to join the Monte Nido team. The Registered Dietitian is a critical member of the leadership and clinical teams and collaborates routinely with all disciplines to achieve optimal client care.

Nutrition programming across all of our programs originates from the same core foundations of health, freedom from eating disordered behaviors, and developmentally appropriate progression toward self-trust and internally-directed eating. With this solid foundation, our clients move through the early stages of food relationship repair to the later stages of growth and expansion into a recovered life.

Our HAES-informed nutritional care reflects:

Recognition that healthy, recovered people come in all shapes and sizes

Recognition that all bodies deserve to be nourished and experience satiety

Behavior-focused, rather than weight-focused philosophies

Awareness that weight loss attempts and focus are contraindicated for recovery from all eating disorder diagnoses

Kitchens and food environments that are open and accessible as in a homelike setting

Total Rewards

Competitive compensation

Medical, dental, and vision insurance coverage (Benefits At a Glance)

Retirement

Company-paid life insurance, AD&D, and short-term disability

Employee Assistance Program (EAP)

Flexible Spending Account (FSA)

Health Savings Account (HSA)

Paid time off
