About Megan
Hi, I’m Megan Vercelli, a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN) based in Santa Barbara, California. As a busy wife and mom to two girls, I know how important it is to find a balanced approach to health and wellness. Since becoming a dietitian in 2016, I’ve specialized in outpatient nutrition counseling, supporting individuals with diverse health conditions such as diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, weight management, and maternal health, including pregnancy and postpartum care. My passion lies in women's health, and I take great pride in helping clients navigate their wellness journeys to achieve their goals.
Approach to care
My approach is rooted in providing research-based nutrition guidance in a relaxed, friendly environment where you feel comfortable sharing your goals and challenges. I can offer personalized meal plans and recipes to support your success, but my focus is always on health rather than weight. I strongly believe that maintaining healthy habits is far more important than any number on the scale, and I’m committed to helping you prioritize wellness in a way that works for your lifestyle.
Your first session with Megan
In our first session, we’ll focus on getting to know each other and understanding how I can best support you in reaching your health goals. You are my top priority, and I want to create a plan that blends my expertise in nutrition with your personal knowledge of your body and needs. Together, we’ll talk about your current diet, any challenges you may face, and your goals. I’ll also outline a personalized timeline for future appointments to ensure we’re on the right path to achieving those goals.
