Empowering

Change Membership

The nutrition counseling membership for dietitians who want to support real, lasting behavior change.

You didn't become a dietitian just to hand out food lists and chase down follow-ups. You became one to help people truly change their patterns, and build new behaviors that actually last.

The membership you didn't know you needed.

And CEUs. Lots of them-at an incredibly accessible price.

Who is the Empowering Change Membership For?

This is for you if:

  • You struggle to move beyond nutrition education and into real behavior change

  • You wish you knew what to do when clients aren't motivated, aren't following through, or just aren't engaged

  • You want to keep clients longer, instead of losing them after two or three visits

  • You sense something is missing in your counseling sessions, but can't quite name it

  • You want practical, in-session strategies that keep clients actively participating

  • You want to provide transformational services that help clients succeed, without doing all the work yourself or burning out

  • You want to make a bigger impact in every session

  • You want to feel more confident in your counseling approach

  • You want all of this - real strategies and real support, without breaking the bank

Why the membership works

A single CEU course teaches you one topic — and often costs more than this entire membership.

For less than the price of that one course, you get an ever-growing library of CEU-accredited trainings, plus the real-world counseling skills a course never covers.

Meet Joyce Faraj-Ardura

Dietitian, counseling coach, & Founder of the Nutrition Counseling Academy

Meet Joyce - Registered Dietitian, CEO, Founder of the Nutrition Counseling Academy, and former tenure-track professor of nutrition and dietetics.

In 2021, Joyce was looking for better, more inclusive, and practical resources for her students. Unable to find the resources she wanted, she started finding creative ways to support not only her students, but also fellow RDs so they could feel more confident in the work they do. This is how the Nutrition Counseling Academy was born.

Now Joyce empowers other RDs with the knowledge, strategies, and skills to better support their clients and gain the confidence they deserve. You're in the trusted hands of a colleague who wants nothing but for you to succeed!
