Amy Stephens, MS, RDN, CSSD CEDS

Seasonal depression and stress were wreaking havoc on my cholesterol levels! In a panic, I reached out to Amy for her guidance and expertise. She listened to my concerns, asked the right questions, and offered practical, easy-to-follow guidance that helped me turn my nutrition around. Amy encouraged me to continue the good habits I already had, while letting go of the less helpful ones I'd picked up during the winter slump. Around 3 months since our initial session, I retested my cholesterol levels – and they were back to normal! I'm so grateful for my session with Amy – her approach was supportive, realistic, and tailored to my needs!

I have worked with other sports dietitians and Amy is one of the best. She is professional, warm, and extremely mindful when it comes to talking about food and nutritional needs. She is always sure to ask if I am comfortable discussing weight, calories, and other topics that could be triggering to someone who struggles with eating. She gave me great suggestions for easy ways to increase my calorie and carb count in order to optimize my fueling for running. Shortly after working with her, I noticed a difference in how strong I felt and even PRed a race. Amy is fantastic at creating a welcoming, non-judgmental environment and I cannot recommend working with her enough!

Amy’s expertise in nutrition has been incredibly valuable to both me and the entire Hamptons Run Club community. Her presentation was informative, professional, engaging, and genuinely fun — she has a great way of simplifying complex topics so everyone can understand and apply them. She answered all of our questions, and thanks to everything we learned about fueling and race-day nutrition, we’re feeling confident and ready to crush the NYC Marathon 😬🏃‍♂️🗽

After a consult with Amy, she crafted an individual plan for me, which made it so easy to follow. I implemented her recommendations and felt more energetic, better fueled for workouts, and generally leaner. I cannot recommend Amy enough for any and all nutrition concerns!

Working with Dr. Stephens was a game changer for my marathon training. I’ve struggled with nausea on race days and not eating enough around my runs, but she helped me create a fueling and hydration plan that worked perfectly. As a vegan, I also appreciated her help navigating supplementation. I ran my last marathon without getting sick for the first time (yay!) and felt great doing it. I’ll absolutely work with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for some extra nutrition support. Thank you Amy!!

Awesome nutritionist! Really helped me figure out how to eat right and be healthy while being an athlete.

Small and good place

Amy is amazing! I was struggling with a lot of stomach/digestive issues as I trained for my second marathon and Amy helped me create a custom nutrition plan that allowed me to actually focus on the running and not constantly be worried that what I ate was going to hurt my performance. Amy is a total pro and I would encourage all long-distance runners (or athletes in general) to work with her!

Amy is great. Her training plan and strategies for the days leading up to the marathon, as well as the fueling and hydration guidance for race day, were spot on.

I've been working with Amy to fuel my workouts and train for a triathlon, and she’s been incredibly knowledgeable, supportive, and practical. She tailors advice to my goals and makes nutrition feel simple and sustainable. Highly recommend!
