About Meyayua
Hello! I’m a Registered Dietitian who enjoys helping people feel more confident about their nutrition and build a healthier relationship with food. I have experience in both clinical and community nutrition, supporting individuals and families with conditions like diabetes, heart health, and nutrition during pregnancy and early childhood. I completed my dietetic internship at the Minneapolis VA Hospital and currently work as a WIC Nutrition Educator, where I support women, infants, and children. My goal is to provide practical, supportive guidance that helps you make small, sustainable changes that fit your everyday life.
Approach to care
Evidence guides the recommendations I offer, and compassion guides how I deliver them. I practice through a Health At Every Size lens, taking a weight-neutral, whole-person view that considers sleep, stress, movement, and food culture. I stay direct and action-oriented so we'll leave sessions with clear, realistic steps. I also prioritize education, helping you understand the why behind choices so we can build sustainable habits together.
Your first session with Meyayua
During the first visit I'll review your medical history and take a deep look at your relationship with food, all in a judgment-free, low-pressure space. We'll talk about what’s working, what feels overwhelming, and what you want to prioritize. Together we'll establish one or two short-term goals you feel good about and walk away with clear, practical next steps you can try before our next meeting.
