About Dana

Dana Magee is a nutrition therapist, author, and speaker. Dana specializes in digestive health, food sensitivities, and eating disorders.

Dana is a Registered Dietitian in Columbia and Annapolis, Maryland, specializing in supporting adults, young professionals, college students and adolescents who struggle with eating disorders, compulsive exercising and harm from diet culture.

She helps clients REBEL against fad diets and build a healthier, more positive relationship with food. Dana is a Health At Every Size (HAES) practitioner and does not prescribe weight loss diets.

My Approach

My warm, compassionate personality allows my clients to feel comfortable and put their trust in me so that we can work together to challenge eating disorder thinking.

I have successfully treated clients with eating disorders/disordered eating with an approach that combines gaining awareness, problem-solving to find ways to move past eating disorder rules that both challenges my clients but keeps them feeling safe and supported, and relapse prevention. I genuinely believe full recovery is possible and my clients have the strength within them to overcome disordered eating. I love hearing about my client’s successes in feeling confident with food!

Another one of my specialties is supporting clients in improving their body image through re-discovering appreciation and respect for the body. 

I am a passionate advocate of the Health at Every Size © (HAES) movement and a proud anti-diet dietitian. I am also a supporter of the body positivity movement. I specialize in working with teenagers, college students, and young adults and I am an ally of the LGBTQ+ community.

I am motivated to support my clients in tackling eating disorder challenges.  And also grateful to help so many people find freedom from food struggles. Let’s work together to reach your goals 

I am taking on a limited number of new nutrition therapy clients. If spots are full, I am happy to refer you to another clinician or put you on a wait-list.
