Annie Lee, RD, LD (she/her)

Annie completed both her B.S. in Nutrition and Dietetics and her dietetic internship through the Coordinated Program in Dietetics at the University of Texas at Austin. Prior to joining TLB, Annie has had extensive experience working with eating disorders and disordered eating care at the partial hospitalization and intensive-outpatient level, where she learned to value lived experience and advocate for her client’s needs.

Annie’s passion for this field solidified through her experience growing up as a child of immigrants. As a Korean American, she witnessed firsthand how the cultural glorication of thinness and the communal silence surrounding topics of mental health heightened shame and unrealistic body ideals within her community. Her education and lived experience allowed her to reclaim the diet culture junk she had been taught, thus fueling her drive to provide a space for her clients to do so as well. Annie’s heart lies in journeying with her clients as they navigate the nuance of unlearning the complex messages behind what we eat and how we assert our bodies in the world. She believes in tailoring and applying nutrition information to meet each of her client’s needs to live their own authentic selves. 

Annie enjoys working with all eating disorders and disordered eating tendencies, and considers herself a non-diet weight inclusive provider. Annie has a particular interest in working with BIPOC individuals with eating disorders and being able to partner with her clients of color to reclaim their unique story and cultural foods.

Outside of sessions, Annie embraces the homebody life by cozying up at home with a cup of pour over coffee and rewatching episodes of Gilmore Girls. She loves exploring any Austin thrift store and walking around Ladybird Lake. Annie also deeply resonates as an Enneagram 4 and will nerd out about any and all personality test.

Annie is a registered and licensed dietitian in the state of Texas. She is engaging in both in person and telehealth sessions.
