Katie Henderson, bsc
Registered Dietitian
Katie loves talking all things nutrition! With all the “interesting” nutrition information out there, it can get confusing with who we should listen to. Katie is a Registered Dietitian who is passionate about empowering her patients to learn how to fuel their unique body and its needs. Diagnosed with Celiac disease at the age of 16, cooking and experimenting with food became a passion. She learned how to create simple, nutritious meals and loves teaching others how food can help them feel their best. Ensuring our meals stay simple yet delicious is one of Katie’s favorite niches to focus on. Katie loves working with a wide range of nutrition concerns. With her background as a National level gymnast, college level volleyball player, and qualified Team Canada Triathlete member, Katie specializes in sports nutrition and teaching patients how to properly fuel their training. From her own journey following her Celiac diagnosis, Katie has great experience working through GI challenges including nutrition around Celiac disease, food intolerances, and bowel concerns.
She has 5 years experience in outpatient counselling where she supported patients in improving their relationship with food, worked with women going through peri- and post menopause and helped individuals navigate a wide range of other chronic health conditions. Her approach is to provide the most individual and personalized plan to support each patient’s unique health needs, lifestyle, and goals. Katie is here to help you balance all of your nutrition goals while making sure to save room for a few slices of chocolate cake.
Outside of work you will find her training for trail runs or half marathons, cooking and baking up a storm, and making up any excuse to host a party and try out a few new recipes!
