Registered Dietitian / Nutrition Therapist (RD/RDN)

Registered Dietitian / Nutrition Therapist (RD/RDN)

LifeSpring Counseling Services is an in-network outpatient group practice providing counseling services to children, teens, and adults across Maryland through telehealth and in-person care at our Baltimore City office.

At this time, we are excited to expand our services by hiring two Registered Dietitians (RD/RDNs) licensed in Maryland who are passionate about the connection between mental health and nutrition. This role is ideal for clinicians who want to do more than provide nutrition counseling.  We are looking for professionals who want to help shape and grow an innovative nutrition program within a collaborative behavioral health practice.

If you are energized by teamwork, value integrity, quality care, life-long learning, and want your ideas to genuinely matter within an organization, we would love to hear from you.

This role begins as a part-time position with the intention of growing into a full-time caseload over time. We are seeking clinicians interested in building with us long-term and becoming an integral part of our interdisciplinary team.
