About Meiqi

Based in NYC, Meiqi is a registered dietitian that brings a unique blend of nutrition expertise, and a deep appreciation for Eastern food traditions to her practice. With a background in dance she recognizes that food is more than fuel—it is connection, comfort, and culture. Her approach supports individuals in uncovering the “why” behind their eating habits, addressing emotional eating, and finding balance without restriction. Through compassionate guidance she helps clients build sustainable habits, develop a healthier relationship with food, and feel more at ease in their bodies. Her philosophy emphasizes flexibility, mindfulness, and nourishment that supports both physical and emotional well-being.

Approach to care

Care is centered on understanding the individual—honoring each person’s unique background, experiences, and relationship with food. The approach blends evolving nutrition science with principles of balance and mindfulness to create sustainable changes. Clients are guided to explore the emotions and patterns that influence eating behaviors, build self-awareness, and develop habits that support both physical and emotional well-being. The focus is on flexibility, compassion, and finding nourishment that fits naturally into each person’s life

Your first session with Meiqi

The first session is an opportunity to get to know each other and build a foundation for care. Time will be spent discussing food preferences, eating habits, lifestyle, and daily routines to better understand what nourishment looks like in your day-to-day life. Together, a personalized goal will be identified to focus on between sessions—something realistic and meaningful that supports your overall well-being and helps guide progress moving forward.
