About Mikyong

I’m a registered dietitian with over 15 years of experience in clinical nutrition, counseling, and group education. I’m passionate about using nutrition to manage and even reverse chronic conditions. My goal is to help clients improve their health, increase energy, and build a positive relationship with food.

Approach to care

My approach is participant-led, where clients set their own goals and make informed decisions. Sessions are personalized to individual needs, with a focus on accountability. Nutrition counseling emphasizes a weight-neutral approach to encourage lasting behavior change. I aim to meet clients where they are and provide support to help achieve their nutrition goals through a balanced, realistic, and tailored plan that suits each person's unique perspective.

Your first session with Mikyong

The first session is focused on understanding your health goals, challenges, and lifestyle. I'll gather information to provide the best support for your journey. By the end, we'll create a roadmap with short- and long-term goals, along with action steps. We'll discuss your medical history, eating habits, and daily routine to develop a clear, realistic plan in a supportive, judgment-free space. This session is an opportunity to explore your motivations and where we can take your health journey together.
