About Meghan

Meghan is a certified specialist in oncology nutrition (CSO) with 15 years of experience caring for individuals in a high‑volume cancer center, where she has supported people through some of the most challenging and meaningful moments of their lives. Her work has given her extensive, hands‑on experience with pancreatic, gastrointestinal, head and neck, neuroendocrine, gynecological, and breast cancers, and she brings a warm, steady presence to every interaction. In addition to her clinical expertise, Meghan has an extensive background in teaching cooking classes, guiding patients and families in using everyday foods to support healing and confidence in the kitchen. She is deeply committed to cancer risk reduction, weight management, and long‑term survivorship, helping individuals build sustainable habits that honor both their health goals and their lived experience.

Approach to care

A patient‑centered approach to nutrition care means beginning with you—your goals, your routines, and the realities of your daily life. Meghan takes time to understand what you’re hoping for, what feels hard right now, and what support would make a difference. She’ll explore your medical history, eating and cooking patterns, supplement use, and your beliefs about food so she can see the full picture of what you’re navigating. From there, the focus is on practical, everyday strategies that use familiar foods in meaningful ways. Instead of overwhelming changes, she emphasizes small, sustainable shifts that fit naturally into your life and build confidence over time. Every step is grounded in evidence‑based counseling and education, offered with warmth and clarity. Together, you’ll create a plan that feels compassionate, realistic, and truly tailored to your needs.

Your first session with Meghan

Your first session is a chance for us to get to know each other and for me to understand what truly matters to you. I’ll invite you to share your goals and what you hope to gain from our work together so we can make each visit meaningful and supportive. We’ll talk through the pieces of your health story that help guide nutrition care—your medical history, medications, eating and cooking habits, bowel patterns, supplement use, and your personal beliefs about food and nutrition. These conversations help me see the full picture of your daily life and the challenges you may be navigating. From there, we’ll begin shaping a plan that feels compassionate, realistic, and tailored to your needs. And throughout our time together, your comfort is essential. If there’s anything you’d prefer not to discuss, or something important you want me to know, you’re always welcome to share that with me.
