A nurse practitioner and registered dietitian with more than 25 years of experience, Robyn specializes in using medical science, hormone therapy and psychopharmacology to support her patients in the areas of eating disorders, body image, perimenopause and menopause. Robyn led the industry as the first dietitian to become a nurse practitioner. Combining these degrees and modalities allows her to see patients through these dual lenses, enhancing and elevating the quality of care they receive. Robyn employs a patient and mentoring approach in her work. Her varied work background — as staff nurse, nurse practitioner, cardiac dietitian, and nutrition consultant to schools, hospitals, and professional sports teams — has given her a unique ability to achieve positive patient results. Building on her expertise in both nursing and dietetics, Robyn has pursued advanced training in women’s health through the Heather Hirsch Acadamy. She is passionate about helping women navigate perimenopause and menopause, integrating her knowledge of medical science and clinical practice to create personalized, evidence-based care. Robyn is especially committed to supporting women in understanding their options for hormone therapy and psychopharmacology and how lifestyle, nourishment, and a collaborative care model can work together to improve quality of life during this transition. Her comprehensive and compassionate approach empowers women to feel informed, confident, and supported in their health journeys.
A sought-after speaker at industry conferences and events, Robyn has appeared on both television and radio and has been quoted in Boston Magazine, National Geographic, Apple News+, Fitness Magazine, Fox News, Oxygen Magazine, The Boston Herald, The Boston Globe, ADVANCE for NP’s & PA’s, Today’s Dietitian and other national and local media.
