Nutrition Counseling and Medical Nutrition Therapy Services

Hello and welcome!

I’m Debbie Carey and I currently reside in New Jersey. I am originally from Pennsylvania but moved to New Jersey for my first job after graduating from college. I have a son, two dogs, two cats and enjoy spending time with them. In my free time I love to knit, play the guitar, read, work out and watch shows on Hulu! 

My journey into the world of nutrition began in high school. As a dedicated gymnast and, later-in-life figure skater, I developed a keen interest in how nutrition impacts health and performance. This passion guided me to the University of Delaware, where I was accepted into the coordinated dietetics program. During my last two years of undergraduate studies, I completed my dietetics internship, laying a solid foundation for my career. After graduation, I became a registered dietitian and started working in a small, inner-city hospital in Trenton, NJ, focusing on oncology, diabetes, maternal-fetal health, and general nutrition.

Here’s a little more about me.

In addition to my hospital role, I provided group weight loss counseling through a local HMO and conducted nutrition assessments for elderly clients in a long-term care facility. I believe it’s essential to gain experience with various client populations to enhance my counseling skills and deepen my understanding of the medical and mental health conditions that can affect nutritional status. 

I also earned MBA with a concentration in personal financial management from Rider University.

I am dedicated to lifelong learning and have accumulated numerous personal experiences that contribute to my expertise in nutrition. I draw from my own journey, allowing me to empathize with and understand the unique perspectives of everyone I work with

Throughout my career, I have worked to help individuals set and accomplish their nutrition goals, fostering self-confidence and self-efficacy along the way. My flexibility and compassion in my approach ensure that I meet you where you are, helping you navigate your unique challenges and empowering you to achieve your health objectives. I look forward to working together on your journey to better health.

My services are secured and booked through Berry Street, an online platform that empowers independent dietitians to accept insurance and grow thriving, in-network practices by providing large-scale credentialing, referral, administrative and community support. When providers no longer need to spend large amounts of time on administrative tasks like billing, insurance claims, or the limitations of out-of-pocket-only payment options, they have more time to provide care to the communities who need it most.

*Once you have entered your information into the Berry Street system, you will receive an email from Berry Street requesting your insurance information.
You may also opt for self-pay and receive a superbill for insurance submission.
