Hi, I’m Heather Lasco

I’m the founder/director of Confidently NourishED and a Registered Dietitian passionate about helping people heal their relationship with food and their body.

Like many dietitians, I went to my college program to learn more about nutrition to partially help others but really “cure myself.”

One day I landed upon an intuitive eating post on Instagram and the rest was history.(Easier said than done) I spiraled into years of working on healing my own disordered relationship with food and body. And it’s always a work in progress! (I will never lie to anyone about that.)

Once I was able to work with others it became my mission to help everyone get the treatment they deserve, to not be overlooked, and to be taken seriously regardless of how they present themselves when it comes to their mental health and eating disorder treatment.

I’m a member and ally of the LGBTQ+ community. I also dedicate energy to other substance abuse and recovery spaces, being I am proudly 2+ years sober.

Founder & Director

Hi there, I’m Molly!

I’m an anti-diet dietitian passionate about helping people heal their relationship with food and their body. I look forward to creating a safe space so clients feel seen, heard, respected, and able to nourish themselves adequately without anxiety, guilt, and shame.

I utilize philosophies from Intuitive Eating and Health at Every Size when providing nutrition recommendations while also ensuring to individualize care. This means I support clients in rejecting the notion that there are good or bad foods or that they are the problem if they’ve been unsuccessful at changing eating patterns previously and, instead, help them make peace with food and themselves. I guide clients in understanding how their relationship with food and their body is currently impacting their quality of life and work with them to identify ways to change. During sessions, clients can expect to work together to come up with small, buildable goals aiming to empower change behavior.

I have experience working extensively in the partial hospitalization program and intensive outpatient program levels of care for eating disorders, supporting those with Anorexia Nervosa, Binge Eating Disorder, Bulimia Nervosa, Avoidant Restrictive Food Intake Disorder, and Other Specified Eating Disorder. I also have worked in outpatient settings, seeing a range of client concerns from disordered eating to diagnoses requiring nutrition support such as diabetes, heart failure, and kidney disease.

Outside of my passion for nutrition, I also love reading, watching movies, traveling, and finding enjoyment in the mundane aspects of life with loved ones. The sun always brings me peace and so I’m grateful to live by the beach in sunny southern California!

Molly Goldring

Dietitian

I offer nutrition support grounded in compassion and cultural humility, honoring cultural foods and foodways. I recognize that conversations about food and bodies build on the wisdom and leadership of communities at the forefront of social justice movements, including trans, Black, Indigenous, fat, disabled, Two-Spirit, and LGBTQIA+ communities. Recognizing the privilege of working in a field often oversimplified, I approach each client as the expert in their own lived experience and support choice-based movement, an all-foods-fit approach, and weight-inclusivity.

Philosophy

My nutrition philosophy centers on practicality and meaningful support. With 1 in 7 households in the United States experiencing food insecurity, conversations about health must acknowledge the realities that shape how people eat—cost, access, time, transportation, and stress. I focus on flexibility, achievable changes, and respect for cultural food practices rather than rigid diet rules. I view our nutrition space as a collaborative partnership and, when helpful, align nutrition care with other approaches used by your care team. For example, I integrate awareness of frameworks like Internal Family Systems (IFS), approaching eating patterns with curiosity and recognizing they may reflect protective “parts” shaped by personal history and emotional needs. I’m passionate in supporting clients seeking to build a more trusting and sustainable relationship with food.

Background & Experience

  • 15+ years of combined experience in outpatient medical nutrition therapy, eating behaviors, disordered eating, and chronic condition support.
  • Adolescents (13+) and Adults, including military members and Veterans
  • Experience working with communities of the Global Majority with a neuro-affirming lens
  • Training in somatic (mind–body) approaches through Somatic Experiencing International
  • Applied-Compassion Ambassador through the Center for Compassion and Altruism Research and Education at Stanford University School of Medicine

Hi, I’m Alex!

I’m a Registered Dietitian passionate about helping individuals heal their relationship with food and their bodies.

My approach is rooted in Health at Every Size, Intuitive Eating, and All Foods Fit. I believe nutrition counseling should be compassionate, inclusive, and collaborative. Each person’s path to healing is unique, and it’s a privilege to support my clients as they rebuild trust in their bodies, rediscover nourishment, and build a more compassionate relationship with themselves.

With seven years of experience in the field (working in the residential and outpatient space), I specialize in eating disorder recovery and use a non-diet, weight-inclusive lens to support sustainable healing. Whether we’re exploring food fears, challenging diet culture, or rediscovering joy in eating, I’m here to support you with empathy and evidence-based care! I have also worked with a range of client concerns from disordered eating to diabetes, heart disease, and general nutrition.

Hey there, I’m Jess 

Confidently NourishED’s virtual assistant or as I like to call it, the practice’s virtual behind-the-scenes bestie!

I support our team and patients in connecting with the best fit clinician for their care and making sure they have a smooth onboarding process. Along with various other behind-the-scenes tasks.

During my undergrad at the University of Houston studying to become a dietitian, I discovered my passion for the eating disorder field.

Since 2021 I have been supporting a variety of eating disorder clinicians from admin related work to creative work.

When I am not working in my business (or studying to become an RD), you can find me working/playing on my Animal Crossing island or watching all the reality TV. I love traveling and exploring new places but I am also a huge homebody.

Frequently Asked Questions

L
Where is your office located?

All sessions are held via HIPAA compliant Zoom.

K
L
How Is Nutrition Therapy Different From Psychotherapy?

As a registered dietitian providing nutrition therapy we will focus on food, weight, body image, and physical activity. We will also explore mindsets that are keeping you from living a healthful, balanced life. During nutrition therapy we will seek alternatives to the diet thought patterns and behaviors that are not serving you. Throughout this whole process you will also begin to develop awareness around your personal needs and learn how to respond to your internal cues regarding food. Psychotherapy with your therapist will focus more on the underlying issues fueling the eating problems, dealing with past and present relationships, feelings, trauma history, any other co-occurring disorders, etc.

K
L
How Often Will We Meet?

The frequency and duration of our sessions will depend on the severity, complexity, and level of support you need. This will be determined during our initial session. However, nutrition therapy is not a one and done type of deal. Depending on your case we may work together for 3, 6, or 12+ months. Most of my clients start meeting weekly and eventually taper off to every other week.

Do you take insurance?

Currently, we are in-network with United Healthcare, Highmark, BCBS, Cigna and Aetna. If you have another insurance provider with out-of-network benefits for medical nutrition therapy, we can provide you with a super bill to submit for reimbursement. However, you are responsible for paying for services upfront at the time of visit. Reimbursement of services through your insurance is not guaranteed. For more directions on how to verify if we take your insurance plan or if you have out-of-network benefits please look over our benefits check handout.

Do You Accept HSA & FSA?

I do accept Health Savings & Flexible Spending Accounts. Please bring your card to our first visit.

Do You See Clients In Eating Disorder Recovery?

I do work virtually with individuals with eating disorders such as anorexia, bulimia, binge eating disorder, and OSFED. We can only accept clients at an outpatient level of care, however we are happy to help refer you to other resources and levels of care if needed. With our work together being virtual it is important you check in with other providers to have labs taken, any meds adjusted, your weight checked (if needed), etc. as determined appropriate for your recovery. Prior to us working together I would be happy to help you establish a treatment team including a therapist, physician, and psychiatrist if you do not already have one. Depending on the level of support you need and the stage of recovery you are in, we may need to meet for check ins twice a week, weekly, or bi-weekly. I also offer virtual meal support and food exposure sessions.
