About Morgan
Hi! I'm Morgan. My career as an RD has dabbled in clinical, dialysis, food service, and teaching. My own experience struggling with and recovering from an eating disorder in my teens/early 20's has deeply impacted and shapes the empathy I have in practice. These varied experiences have provided me invaluable skills, but I have found my passion lies in this setting where I get to be an invested partner in you finding health and happiness through a "whole-person" approach: nutrition, movement, and mindfulness! When I am not wearing my "RD had", you can find me teaching or attending yoga, doing something fun and active outside, reading, or finding a new recipe to try out!
Approach to care
I am a weight-neutral care provider, and my practice philosophy is rooted in intuitive eating principles. Being a Health At Every Size (HAES) and weight-neutral provider means that I believes weight is not the determinant for health, and sustainable life change starts by looking at you as a WHOLE person. Health is not just about weight! I like to dig deeper and work on all areas of health and wellbeing. This approach makes room for other facets of health at the (proverbial) table. I will provide compassionate care and empathy, while emphasizing nutrition expertise and evidence-based approach to interventions. I aim to help you understand the "why", not just give you a "to-do" list!
Your first session with Morgan
I want to get to know you! You are a whole person outside of your nutrition goals and struggles. I invest time to understand and explore diet/weight history, family history, current habits surrounding sleep, eating, work, stress, hydration, and exercising. I will provide evidence based recommendations, while honoring more holistic and personal preferences. Together you can expect to start creating an individualized nutrition plan that keeps your health and wellness priorities at the forefront of your goals. While I am here to help you in this venture, you are ultimately the driver of change.
