A Canadian living in Boston, Shalini is a Registered Dietitian and Nutrition Therapist that joined Eating Disorder Recovery Specialists in 2016.

Shalini received her undergraduate Business degree at the University of Ottawa, in Canada, and her Master of Science in Dietetics and Nutrition at Florida International University, in Miami.

Shalini has extensive training in medical nutrition therapy, and has worked across all the levels of care of eating disorder treatment. Over the years, she has gained invaluable knowledge about food, the human body, and mental health. As a HAES (Health At Every Size) informed dietitian, she understands how to provide a safe, nurturing, weight neutral environment for her clients. And as a woman of color, she understands the increased stigma surrounding mental health in various cultures. Shalini will always meet her clients where they are in their recovery, and help them find the tools they need to heal and make peace with food and their body, for good.

Among many other things, Shalini loves traveling, trying new ethnic cuisines, crafting, and spending time with her two little girls.
