Annie Goldsmith, RD, LDN holds an undergraduate degree from the University of Rochester in Brain and Cognitive Sciences and attended Winthrop University for her graduate coursework in human nutrition. Her educational and professional trajectory has always been guided by a strong curiosity about the ways our biology and psychology interact to inform our human experience. Annie worked in neuroscience research labs at New York University and Davidson College before pursuing a career in nutrition. She has experience treating eating disorders at the PHP, IOP, and outpatient levels of care. She opened her outpatient group practice, Second Breakfast Nutrition, in 2015.

Annie's practice is rooted in a foundational belief in the inherent worthiness of all bodies. She centers weight inclusive, social justice oriented, and trauma informed frameworks in her approach to eating disorder care and recovery. Annie became interested in somatically oriented and trauma-informed approaches to nutrition therapy in 2018, when she began training with the Embodied Recovery Institute (ERI). She is currently a faculty member with ERI and works to train fellow clinicians in the Embodied Recovery paradigm.

Annie has presented on trauma and dissociation informed eating disorder care at multiple professional conferences. She is a professional member of the International Society for the Study of Trauma and Dissociation (ISSTD) and currently holds a position on the executive committee of the Eating Disorders Special Interest Group within ISSTD. For the last 5 years the clinical focus of Annie's work has been supporting those who struggle with co-occurring eating disorders and Dissociative Identity Disorder, as well as supervising dietitians who treat this population. Annie is passionate about advocating for her clients and raising awareness about dissociation-informed eating disorder treatment, and is excited to bring this topic to IAEDP.
