Miranda Anspach

About Miranda

Food and gardens are both places where patience and curiosity pay off, which probably explains why I studied Nutrition and Dietetics with a minor in Horticulture. Over eight years as an RD and CD I’ve worked in clinical and hospital settings, community health, and outpatient care including home health and telehealth. I’m passionate about meeting each patient where they are and breaking larger goals into short-term, attainable steps. When I’m not working you’ll find me cooking, gardening, knitting, or making stained class projects.

Approach to care

Sustainable change starts with small, practical habits grounded in solid science. I combine evidence-based guidance with a Health At Every Size mindset, focusing on behaviors, quality of life, and long-term skill-building rather than weight-focused prescriptions. We’ll work together in a warm, nonjudgmental space to translate research into clear, actionable steps. My goal is to educate and empower you so the strategies stick, addressing the whole person—physical, emotional, and practical.

Your first session with Miranda

Plan on a relaxed, detail-oriented conversation where we’ll review your medical history and any lab work or biometrics you bring. We’ll talk about routines, wins, and frustrations, and then identify one to three short-term goals that feel doable and meaningful as steps toward larger objectives. You don’t need to have everything figured out beforehand. This is a judgment-free visit focused on translating your information into practical next steps we can try together.
