Hey it's me! Melanie!

My name is Melanie and I am a Registered Dietitian. I believe food is so important for our health, how we feel, and for our happiness.

A little about me – after college I moved abroad for a year and while living with a host family my diet changed drastically (for the better) and within weeks I had chronic health issues resolve and I had more energy.

When I moved back to the US I immediately started my education to become a dietitian.

Now that I am a Registered Dietitian, I have helped many patients and clients do the same – improve their lives through good nutrition.

I am very passionate about the impact that healthy eating can have on our health and I also believe that cooking and eating should be fun!

I give practical recommendations that fit your lifestyle, budget, and health goals. As a busy mom of two little kids I know how important realistic changes are.

I specialize in general healthy eating, help losing weight, help gaining weight, and nutrition-related health concerns such as high blood pressure + heart health, pre-diabetes, food allergies and intolerances, GI disorders, PCOS, wound and pre/post surgery healing, and pregnancy/postpartum nutrition.

I also specialize in pediatric growth and nutrition concerns such as “picky” or “selective” eating. I also have experience in enteral (tube) feeding, including home-blended formula.

Eating for good health and enjoying life.

During our first session I want you to feel comfortable and share your medical history, favorite foods, eating patterns, lifestyle, hobbies.

I know that talking about these things can be difficult sometimes and I want to assure you there will be no judgement from me. I will identify areas to focus on and provide evidence-based education and advice. We will collaborate on goal-setting and make a plan to help you achieve your health/wellness goals.

I enjoy cooking and recipe development so you will probably leave our session with some good meal ideas and recipes as well!

If working with me interests you, please schedule a 15 minute Discovery call.

I offer both private pay and accept insurance – in fact with insurance most clients do not pay anything out of pocket.

If none of these times work for you, please send me an email at dietitian.melanie.rd@gmail.com.
