Lisa, Thank you for being such an extraordinaire resource and support for me on my eating disorder journey.  As I struggled, you were so positive, affirming, and insightful.
I learned so much about the disorder and myself.  Through your yoga sessions I was able to make  strong mind-body connections that I had never experienced in the past.
I learned that I was worthy of healing.  I now enjoy a healthy, balanced, fun life with a tool kit of strategies for life’s stressors—which  does not include overeating. I am blessed.  Thank you so much!

“Lisa helped me to find resources I didn’t know I have within me. Best of all, those resources have helped me become more resilient and better able to negotiate the changes that come with healing.”

“Lisa’s work with my daughter was exactly what she needed to learn how to overcome her eating disorder.  Lisa challenged her to go outside her comfort zone in a supportive way.  The trust I have in Lisa to help others out of a dark place is so genuine that I have recommended her to another mother whose child is fighting an eating disorder. I am forever grateful to Lisa for helping my daughter get back on a positive and healthy path.”

Mary

"When my daughter was diagnosed with disordered eating and our family felt very frightened and lost, my mantra was "trust the professionals."  We sought out both a therapist and a nutritionist as two of our professionals.  Lisa coached both my daughter and I through a workable meal plan and was there to support both of us.  Her calm positive energy, as well as her supportive words, constantly reassured me that these were really difficult times and that I was doing all the right things as a parent.  Moms tend to hold themselves responsible for everything, and Lisa assuaged those fears and reinforced the work I was doing."

"Lisa is a visionary in the holistic treatment of eating disorders. As a former colleague and current friend, I’ve had the honor of working with her on multiple projects. She is passionate about helping individuals live their best lives and that passion shows in every sense of her work. I believe Lisa is a pioneer in incorporating yoga and nutrition into eating disorder and co-occurring mental health issues."

"I had the privilege to be part of Lisa’s team of yoga instructors at an eating disorder treatment program for several years. Her work in incorporating yoga into eating disorder treatment has been groundbreaking. Lisa is an extremely insightful, empathic, and inspiring yoga teacher and dietician. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Lisa’s services to anyone needing support in healing their relationship with food, movement, and (most importantly) themselves."

Jacqueline Vlietstra, Registered Yoga Teacher

"Lisa is an invaluable resource for personalized nutrition and yoga therapy. She has a gentle and knowledgable way of providing you the tools necessary to empower yourself."

"I have been managing my eating disorder for the last 6 years and have seen a handful of Registered Dietitians in that period. Although I felt supported with other dietitians, no one before Lisa helped me uncover the deep emotional block I have about my weight. I was initially hesitant to see her because I live across town from her office, but after a couple conversations with her, that was a non-issue. She gave me a new perspective, helped me put past trauma in context, and I couldn’t recommend her more!"

Client Receiving Individualized Yoga and Nutrition Therapy Sessions

"Lisa has simply changed my life & the way I view myself, truly the best gift I could ever receive! I felt nothing but comfortable from the first phone call to all our 3 sessions together. Lisa’s knowledge and compassion along with her being your biggest cheerleader (until you can take over yourself) made this such a special experience for me. You will not be disappointed with Lisa Diers, you will leave with life long tools and the great pleasure of knowing her."

JA

"I’m so grateful that I was able to work with Lisa through a really challenging time. Having Lisa as my dietitian while working towards recovery from my eating disorder made a HUGE difference for me. She listened to me, offered invaluable education, and really worked with me to come up with what I felt was a very individualized treatment plan. Not only does Lisa really know what she’s talking about, but she’s warm, kind, and funny and it was enjoyable to work with her. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone."

KR

"I had the honor to work with Lisa Diers as a contributing author in a book I co-edited with Joe Kelly, "Yoga and Eating Disorders.” Lisa’s grasp of how yoga can help heal people who suffer from eating disorders is remarkable. She is one of the pioneers in the field in terms of weaving yoga into an overall comprehensive treatment program, including yoga asana and its philosophical principles. Anyone interested in the interface between yoga and eating disorders should follow her work."

When I am near Lisa Diers, I feel safe and in an atmosphere of trust.  She lives and integrates movement into new levels of expression.  I see movement as a foundation for emotional and mental transformation.  Lisa helps you move into difficult places of resistance or avoidance while feeling a desire to keep going, that lead you to new forms of mental, emotional and physical strength.

Lisa Diers is absolutely one of my favorite colleagues. The energy she brings to our work together is so refreshing and different from typical academics - instead of seeing challenges, Lisa sees opportunities.

I can't say enough about the leadership, dedication, heart, and skill that Lisa Diers brings to everything she touches.  After having worked with and for her for nearly 7 years now, I am continually impressed by the creativity, knowledge, compassion and integrity she brings to her roles as both as a dietitian and a therapeutic yoga instructor. I highly recommend working with Lisa should the opportunity arise.

I have had the privilege to work with Lisa professionally as collaborative partners on various projects as well as a student taking her training.  Lisa is one of the most passionate, and wisest people I have ever met. She is able to distill information into practical bite size pieces, allowing practitioners and individuals to integrate mind-body practices into their work and lives. She creates safe spaces for individuals to learn and is an expert at integrating material into curriculum.
