About Michelle
I am a Florida based registered dietitian working at a large academic teaching hospital specializing in cancer care. Every day, I work closely with patients navigating complex diagnoses, treatment side effects, and the role nutrition plays in healing and recovery. In addition to oncology, I have experience supporting individuals with a wide range of health conditions as well as those simply looking to feel better, have more energy, and build sustainable habits. My approach is rooted in real life. Nutrition should feel approachable, flexible, and supportive, not restrictive or overwhelming. I love helping clients reconnect with food in a way that feels empowering and realistic.
Approach to care
I truly believe that diet can have a powerful impact on your overall health, how you feel day to day, and your long term wellbeing. My goal is to help you move away from ultra processed foods and rediscover the value of whole, nourishing ingredients. I often guide clients toward a more whole foods and Mediterranean style pattern of eating, focusing on balance, variety, and foods that support both physical and mental health. This is never about perfection. It is about building habits that are sustainable, enjoyable, and tailored to you. I meet you where you are, whether you are managing a medical condition, recovering from illness, or simply wanting to feel your best.
Your first session with Michelle
Our first session is all about getting to know you. We will talk about your health history, lifestyle, current eating habits, goals, and any challenges you may be facing. This is a judgment free space where you can be honest about what is working and what is not. Together, we will create a personalized plan that fits your life, not the other way around. You can expect practical guidance, realistic strategies, and clear next steps. My goal is for you to leave feeling heard, supported, and confident in your path forward.
