About Mia
Hi! I'm Mia and I'm a Registered Dietitian here to spread the joy of good food and good health. As a former restaurant cook and farmhand, I have a unique perspective on the entire cycle of food from farm to fork to nourishing our bodies. I enjoy helping people get at the simple foundations of nutritious meals. I welcome all food cultures and styles of eating as I work together with clients to meet their goals on their terms. My experience over the years has included nutrition counseling for heart health, cancer care, bariatrics, renal disease, and more.
Approach to care
As a dietitian, my role is to guide my clients on their journey toward meeting their goals. I hope to help clients understand the broad and flexible nature of nutritious foods. I want to adapt my experience and work to clients' needs and concerns. My recommendations are based in science but I'm also concerned with the social, emotional, and financial factors that my clients manage.
Your first session with Mia
In our first session, I like to start with background information that will help me get to know the whole you. We'll discuss what's helping or harming your progress toward your goals. We'll hone in on what you want to get out of our sessions and what has or hasn't worked for you in the past. This way, I can work out the best approach for us to work together. Most of all, you can expect to be met where you are.
