Calene Van Noy, RDN

Calene Van Noy, RDN (Registered Dietitian-Nutritionist), joins Tanner Clinic ready to help those with eating disorders find hope and healing. She shares what she has noticed about eating disorder recovery, “Once you learn how to deal with your eating disorder, you can apply that skill and knowledge to your relationships, and career aspirations, and get to living your life in the way you want to.” Her practice is located at our East Layton location in the west wing basement.

Van Noy grew up in Sherwood, Oregon, and attended Brigham Young University. During her RDN Internship, she worked at the Center for Change where she discovered a love and passion for helping people get back to caring for their bodies in a healthy way. After graduation, she worked at UVRMC and the Center For Change in Utah County. She has spent years working to help those with eating disorders regain strength by adjusting their relationship with food.

“I love food and helping people heal their relationship with food. Life is meant to be enjoyed and food should be part of your joy. Too often, the eating experience is riddled with guilt and shame. You don’t have time or energy to waste on that.”

Before joining Tanner Clinic, Van Noy has been working at Bright Heart Health as an intensive outpatient dietitian where she counsels patients individually and in groups to help with disordered eating. “I love seeing people change. I love it when I hear a client say ‘I went out to dinner with my husband and I didn’t have any behaviors, it felt so free!’ or ‘I just had a cookie!’ It’s cool because they used to think that was impossible and we’re making what was impossible possible.”

Outside of work, she enjoys hiking, camping, reading, spending time with her family, and exploring the delicious world of food.
