Get to know Dietitian and Nutritionist Angela Veri Babuschak, who practices in Cohasset, Massachusetts.

Angela is a registered and licensed dietitian and nutritionist specializing in disordered eating and eating disorders. She is also a certified yin yoga instructor, a meditation practitioner, and an essential oil distributor.

At her private practice, VeriWell, in Cohasset, Massachusetts, Angela offers a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental environment as she helps people find freedom with food and make peace with their bodies. She does so using a non-diet approach, which supports body attunement, self-esteem, and body acceptance to optimize health without regard to weight.

Having been in practice for over 25 years, her practice is based on the ten principles of intuitive eating, a mindful eating approach, and the Health at Every Size philosophy. She works with women, men, and children of all ages from anywhere to discover their identity with food and movement outside of deprivation and worry. 

“After many years of work, education and raising a family, I’m ready to share my experiences and expertise with you. My hope is for you to free yourself from what diet culture dictates as the ideal…unsustainable diets, unrealistic trends, and unattainable weights. I help you become attuned to signals of hunger and fullness, identify and challenge distorted thinking about food and weight, develop a positive body image, and above all…be kind to your body because it’s your home.” as stated by Angela on her website. 

With a unique expertise in nutrition and wellness, her career began after she received both her Bachelor of Science degree and her Master of Arts degree in Nutrition from Immaculata College, outside Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. She completed her didactic internship at the Reading Hospital and Medical Center in Reading, Pennsylvania, after which she obtained the Integration and Functional Nutrition certification through the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics. She has additional training in eating disorder and body image treatment, vegetarianism, and wellness.

Attributing her success to following her lifelong passion, receiving supervision from her mentors, self compassion and faith, Angela is working towards becoming a Certified Intuitive Eating Counselor. 

Human nutrition deals with the provision of essential nutrients in food that are necessary to support human life and health. Poor nutrition is a chronic problem often linked to poverty, food security or a poor understanding of nutrition and dietary practices. A dietitian is an expert in dietetics; that is, human nutrition and the regulation of diet. A dietitian alters their patient’s nutrition based upon their medical condition and individual needs. Dietitians are regulated healthcare professionals licensed to assess, diagnose and treat nutritional problems.

A nutritionist is a person who advises others on matters of food and nutrition and their impacts on health. Some people specialize in particular areas, such as sports nutrition, public health, or animal nutrition, among other disciplines.
