I met Ellyn several years ago and I find her to be knowledgeable and heart centered. She ferociously advocates for her clients. Ellyn is passionate about her work and I appreciate all of the assistance she has given to me. More...

I've only recently been introduced to Ellyn and her work. But it's been long enough to know that she is a responsible, caring nutritionist and healer. She stays current with the research and treats people holistically, with her heart as well as her mind. More...

A very caring, down-to-Earth nutritionist. Very knowledgeable and supportive. Teaches mindful eating. If you're looking for a quick fix diet, go somewhere else. If you're looking for a lifelong approach to health and wellness, she's the one for you! More...

Ms. Berkowitz, Ellyn, is an extremely intelligent and rational human. She is a compassionate, human.
Her nutrition advice is based on the latest nutritional science and facts.
She remains current and relevant in her field because she is constantly learning, updating her knowledge of nutritional science.
She is not someone who believes in testimonials, "internet facts" or what other people "swear by". She believes in and practices medical nutrition therapy. Ms. Berkowitz is a true professional; always polite.
However, she is also, as I am as well, very vocal when learning of items published (internet or otherwise) which are not factual, irrelevant, fraudulent or simply not true: not based in science. She is also, as I am as well, not afraid to call these people out on their "pseudoscience". People who believe they are right, despite the facts, generally don't like this and hence she, as well as I, have made a few enemies along our life path. Not by our choice but by the person we are trying to educate, correct, who has decided we are the enemy.
If you ever need nutritional counseling, medical nutrition therapy, she is one of the people who is the top of her field. Go see her and you won't be disappointed.

Ellyn has been donating her time for decades to present healthy nutrition at our weekend seminars. She has left people with practical tools for healthy cooking and eating and what to purchase on a budget. She explains things in a manner in which clients of all educational levels can understand making the tools and presentation much more effective. She continues to receive high scores on the participant evaluations and is always welcomed back to present. We need more people in the world like her to be willing to share and donate their time helping people with complex health issues with food and intake strategies for different health scenarios.

I've had the pleasure of knowing Ellyn for several years and she is an expert in her field and can be counted on to do the right thing, even if it is unpopular.
She also is caring enough to comment and try to rid the world and the internet of unscientific and harmful practices, and obviously some of these trolls don't like it.
She is truly a health professional and her caring and concern doesn't end when the workday is over.

A therapist and a dietitian, Ellyn brings all her knowledge and caring to anyone needing her help. When a patient's demons overcome them, she is there with her reasoning and understanding to return the person to a healthier path.

Dedicated and fierce. She's here to help, and debunks the crackpots. Those one star reviews are from people she busted giving faulty/dangerous nutritional advice. She don't play.

Ellyn is a great nutritionist and very knowledgeable. I have had problems with overeating and was recently in the hospital for problems with IBSD. She helped me see what I needed to do and she supported my decisions rather than emphatically telling me I should do it her way. I have recommended her to other people and would not hesitate to do it again. More...

I have known Ms Silverman for many years. She has helped me with many food, nutrition and dietary related issues, concerns and questions. I know there is a HUGE difference between someone saying they are a nutritionist vs someone who is actually a Registered Dietitian/Nutritionist (RD/N). Â Anyone can call themselves a Nutritionist whether they have had two classes in the subject, read some books or have not even done any education on the topic. In fact even if they have read about nutrition there is no proof what they read was scientific and valid. An RD/N goes to school for 5-7 years (Many have master' degrees) and does an internship or something similar of over 1000 hours. Being an RD/N is a science, a medical profession and one that requires licensure, having completed what I mentioned above as well as continuing education.I have spoken to "nutritionists" who had told me the most outrageous non science based (aka evidence based) information which I, along with Google, realized these people were wrong.Ellyn has been an RD/N Â and Nutrition Therapist for more than 20 years, has a lot of experience and additional credentials to her name and knows so much about nutrition in general, intuitive eating, eating disorders and addiction, among many other topics. I strongly recommend her. More...

Ellyn was my RD throughout my treatment of Anorexia Nervosa from 2013-2017. Â She is welcoming, patient and kind; but moreover she KNOWS her profession and does her job well. I learned so much from her! Â If you are struggling in your relationship with food I think she is one of the best dietitians in the field. I highly recommend her! More...
