BHN Member Spotlight

Natalie Grun, RDN, LD

Current Position

Registered Dietitian in private practice.

I will be helping as the Eating Disorders Resource Professional role while Haley Goodrich is on maternity leave.

How long have you been a RDN?

4 years

How long have you been in the Behavior Health Nutrition area?

4 years

Why did you join BHN?

I started my career in mental health and worked at Integral Care which is mental health agency in Austin, Texas. I practiced in the community and would provide nutrition counseling either individually or in a group setting. I joined BHN to enhance my knowledge and skills and to have a sense of community along the way.

How has BHN helped you professionally?

I began as an RD working with mental health and by being a part of BHN, I learned about other practice areas such as eating disorders/disordered eating which is now the population I work with. Continuing education that BHN offers has helped me learn and grow in this area specifically.

What do you think other RD's should know about BHN?

Something that has been extremely helpful about BHN is being apart of the listserv and being able to collaborate with other providers that have experience in various areas.

A little about me

I have my own private practice in Austin, Texas. I practice from a Health at Every Size® approach and Intuitive Eating lens with my clients. I am passionate about helping those that struggle with disordered eating and eating disorders. I am also apart of Central Texas Eating Disorder Specialists and will be helping as a board member for the next two years. In my free time, I love spending time with my husband and two dogs. We very much enjoy the trails and swimming holes that Austin has to offer.
