Libby (Elizabeth) Parker, MS, RD, CDN, CEDS-C is a Certified Eating Disorders Specialist Registered Dietitian – Consultant working with EDs since 2012. Libby holds a BS in Nutrition-Dietetics with a Leadership minor from the University of Minnesota – Twin Cities, near where she grew up. Her MS in Applied Nutrition allowed her to tailor her courses to an eating disorder emphasis. Libby went out to San Luis Obispo, CA, for her DI through Cal Poly, and stayed in the town opening her first private practice (eventually group) that lasted 10 years until she moved to New York in 2022.

While in CA, Libby worked in Private Practice, College adjunct faculty (Behavioral Nutrition), Corporate Wellness, Public Health, and – her favorite – the first Campus RD at Cal Poly University, just for students suffering from eating disorders. While there she developed the interdisciplinary team and had a waitlist of students each quarter. Eventually, Libby’s private practice grew to a small virtual group practice, allowing her to employ RD and admin staff, more dietetic interns, and focus on the development of the business. She also published, Permission To Eat, in 2019, and followed up with an accompanying workbook a few years later. 

When she moved to NYC in fall of ’22, Libby started with outreach for ED treatment centers, ultimately creating a new private practice, The Broadway Dietitian Nutrition Consulting, where she now does ED RD consulting, therapeutic consulting for ED placement, nutrition counseling for eating disorders and theatre athletes, and speaking to theatre groups on proper health and nutrition from a weight-inclusive lense. Currently, Libby is ramping up to take on employees once again and has been supervising a team of OP RDs for a group practice as a side job. She adores empowering clinicians to find their own knowing and expertise while holding them up with case consultation, education, and resources. Libby offers individual and group consultation.
