Lori Auerbach Sullivan, MS, RD, is a Registered Dietitian/Nutritionist living in central CT. Originally from Cleveland, Ohio, Lori’s interest in healthy eating and cooking began back with a cooking class in 7th grade! Her high school home economics teachers suggested she look into a career in nutrition and dietetics because of her strong science and nutrition interest.
Getting her undergraduate degree from Michigan State University in Nutritional Research and her Master’s of Science from Purdue University in Nutrition and Dietetics as well as living in different states and countries has afforded Lori with opportunities to explore many of the diverse aspects of her field. Lori had both her own practice and worked in out-patient treatment clinics focusing on: weight management, eating disorders, high-risk obesity, GI and lipid disorders and providing consulting with families needing guidance on healthy eating and food preparation techniques.
Currently Lori teaches at University of Hartford in the Department of Physical Therapy, is a per diem clinical dietitian at Hospital for Special Care and counselor for private clients at OneSourceNutrition in South Windsor. Prior to these positions, she worked part time as both a generalist (seeing patients with varied diagnoses) and a specialist coaching and counseling patients on modified very-low calorie fasts in the “GoodLife Weight Management Program” at New Britain General Hospital (now The Hospitals of Central CT). For eight years she was clinical nutrition sales specialist for the medical nutrition division of Nestlé. Conducting cooking classes for children and adults allowed Lori to combine a hobby and profession as well as share some of her recipe secrets learned from living in Italy!
Lori’s direct style, empathy, positive reinforcement and extensive experience allow her to guide her clients to success for improving their health through nutritional insight and behavioral modification. Based out of the South Windsor office, at OneSourceNutrition, Lori will work in partnership with you to help you make steps toward healthful changes.
