Hi, I’m Amber, Your Dietitian Nutritionist.

  • Hi, I’m Amber Yui, MPH, RDN, LDN, CHES, or a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist with a Masters of Public Health as well as being a Certified Health Education Specialist.

    Although I’ve always been fascinated by the science of nutrition, I found my place when I started teaching college-level nutrition courses, became a mother, and merged my background in clinical nutrition with early childhood development and intuitive eating practices.

    My practice is named Joyful Eaters as my goal is to address and prevent possible health conditions while also including food traditions, mindful mealtime habits, and a love for delicious food.

    I look forward to connecting with you to support you in setting and reaching your goals, one step at a time.

Real stories from happy clients

  • ...a form of self-care

    "Amber took the time to really listen to me and help me take steps to better care for myself. I never realized taking time to eat was a form of self-care."

  • ...so much less anxious

    “My son has been a picky eater since he was 2 and I was worried. I asked my son’s pediatrician if his behavior was normal. She gave me a referral to see Amber, and I feel so much less anxious. I’m involving him in the kitchen more, and even took him to the grocery store with me, which was big for us.”

  • ...helpful topics and ideas

    “When I was diagnosed with prediabetes I didn’t know what to do. A friend recommended I contact Amber, and I’m glad I did. I never realized how helpful the topics and ideas we covered would be for me, and my health insurance has paid 100% for all of my visits so far. I’m so grateful.”

  • ...answering my many questions

    “I had so many fears and questions about my health, lab work, and how nutrition could help me. Amber was so patient with me and answering my many questions. I’m excited about the progress I’ve already made.”

  • I feel more confident...

    “Food is a topic that I’ve struggled with for as long as I can remember. During my first visit I was hesitant as I’ve tried so many things over the years, but I was willing to keep trying. I’ve felt myself become lighter and open up to trying something new. Although I haven’t reached my dream weight, I feel more confident and relaxed around food than I’ve felt in years.”
