Our Dietitians

Nicole Ferri, RD, CD-N, CEDRD

Founder and Executive Director

Nicole is an empathetic and passionate Registered Dietitian and Certified Dietitian-Nutritionist in Connecticut. Nicole’s passion for nutrition began after taking a college-level nutrition class and realizing how the coursework combined both her love for human biology and helping others. She completed her education at Keene State College, receiving a Bachelor's of Science degree in Health Science- Nutrition and a Minor in psychology.

Nicole was chosen to complete a dietetic internship at the Cleveland Clinic where she provided intensive nutrition therapy to numerous patient populations. After completing her internship, Nicole became licensed as a Registered Dietitian and was hired at a residential eating disorder program for children and adolescents. Through her time working in residential care, Nicole realized she had a true passion for helping those with eating issues and opened Inspire Nutrition Counseling in 2017.

Over many years, Nicole has effectively helped hundreds of clients achieve body acceptance while also fostering appropriate attitudes and behaviors around food. She is currently specialized and credentialed as a Certified Eating Disorder Registered Dietitian (CEDRD). Nicole enjoys bringing awareness to the topics of eating disorders and eating mindfully/intuitively for both clients as well as loved ones and providers.
