Cynthia Miranda

About Cynthia

I have over 8 years of experience in various settings, including inpatient, bariatrics, community nutrition, and Early Intervention. I support individuals in improving their relationship with food, as this is an important aspect of sustainably managing chronic illnesses, complex medical conditions, and other health concerns. I've worked with diverse populations from all stages of life and have always learned the most from my patients themselves. I am passionate about disease prevention, prioritizing physical and mental well-being, and supporting patients with achievable and meaningful goals.

Approach to care

I approach my sessions with empathy, free of judgment, and with the awareness that nutrition is highly individualized and nuanced rather than one-size-fits-all. I believe that each person is the expert on their health, bodies, and experiences, and my intent is for you to feel comfortable enough to share your story and for us to work together on achieving your health goals. I hope to provide a friendly, approachable, and safe environment where you feel heard and supported.

Your first session with Cynthia

During our first session, we'll discuss what brings you to Nourish and what you hope to accomplish as a result of working together. We'll get to know each other, and review your health history, past experiences, and any perceived barriers to achieving your desired outcomes. From here, we'll start to brainstorm a plan for the next few weeks or whatever timeframe feels most comfortable and feasible for you. I also have a cat named Prim who may or may not make an appearance!
