Kelsey Peterson, MS, RD
ASSOCIATE REGISTERED DIETITIAN
Born and raised in Southern California, I became interested in nutrition after being diagnosed with several nutrition-related health conditions of my own. After seeking answers to my ailments, I discovered my love of nutrition and never looked back! I graduated from California State University Long Beach with a Bachelors of Science in Nutrition and Dietetics. In addition, to being a registered dietitian, I have completed my Masters of Nutritional Science as well as became a Certified Intuitive Eating Counselor and received direct mentorship from Evelyn Tribole. I’ve recently moved to the beautiful city of San Diego where I work part time at a residential eating disorder treatment facility and see clients at Nutrition Instincts. I am currently working towards becoming a Certified Eating Disorder Registered Dietitian.
I combine my empathetic nature, love of food, and educational background in nutrition to provide a client-centered approach to counseling. My background consists of nutrition counseling and education to those suffering from IBS, inflammatory bowel diseases, eating disorders, diabetes, and hypertension, as well as those looking for general nutrition information and weight management. I root my nutrition beliefs in evidence-based practices combined with Intuitive Eating principles. I believe that obtaining a healthy relationship with food is essential for long-lasting health and vitality.

TIFFANY KELLY
VIRTUAL ASSISTANT
Hello! I am Tiffany Kelly and I am a virtual assistant for Nutrition Instincts. I began my assistant career at the age of 17 by becoming an office assistant for a commercial refrigeration company that my father owns. After working with my father’s company for eight years, I decided I wanted to go back to school and complete my undergraduate degree. As of December 2015, I completed my Bachelors of Arts in Psychology from California Baptist University, in Southern California. Throughout my time in school, I continued to work as an assistant. However, due to my heavy class load, the assisting became more virtual. After graduation, I began seeking other jobs for virtual assistants because I preferred being able to schedule my own hours. In May of 2016, Lindsay found me and I have been apart of the team ever since. This job allows me to have more time for fun with my nieces and nephew, whom I watch every Wednesday. I am also able to serve at my local church on a weekly bases. I eventually plan to return to school to complete my Masters in Social Work, but for now I am enjoying working in this field and gaining more experience.
