Eating Disorder Treatment Nutritionist/Dietician

Ryther is a recognized leader in behavioral health services for children, youth, young adults, and their families facing complex challenges. We’re dedicated to providing comprehensive services and innovative treatments. We guide, coach, and teach so that every client we work with may experience new ways of thinking, develop positive relationships, and realize a better life. We hope you'll join our team of amazing providers!

​

As we prepare to open an eating disorders therapy program with a continuum of care options, we seek to contract with a dietitian/nutritionist who has experience in providing eating disorders focused treatment. Grounded within the agency's trauma recovery model and racial equity work, the eating disorder program will employ evidence-based and best practices models of care, informed by the participants receiving services. Working in a multidisciplinary environment, this is an exciting opportunity to help shape a clinically rich, client focused eating disorders program.

​

The contracted role of nutritionist/dietitian will join the treatment team working in Ryther’s Partial Hospitalization Program as well as our Intensive Outpatient Program. This contracted role is an opportunity to have consistent client hours during the daytime while working with children and adolescents. Additionally, the role offers the opportunity to work with a transdisciplinary team in treatment recommendations and in program development.

Our social justice mission and trauma informed framework are the basis for our everyday work and internal processes.
