Ann was my nutritionist for two years and she did such an amazing job! I came to her not knowing why I felt a little off and also unmotivated. She helped me with food choices and planning also an exercise routine that I could stick with. I'm 100% in a better place because of Ann. Highly recommended.

I was able to get sound nutrition knowledge from Dana and learn a lot about how food companies use marketing to deceptively promote foods as "healthy" and "high protein". I was able to quickly meet my weight loss and muscle maintenance goals.

I've been working with Mekenzie for several months, and I've been incredibly impressed with her nutrition coaching and meal planning services. I've worked with nutritionists in the past, but she has provided, by far, the best experience I've had! She is extremely knowledgeable and has a unique ability to explain nutrition concepts in a way that's easy to understand and apply to everyday life. What I appreciate most is that she focuses on education, not just telling you what to eat. I've learned so much about nutrition, and I feel more confident making healthier choices on my own. She's supportive, responsive, and genuinely invested in my success. I highly recommend Mekenzie!

My teenage daughter was struggling with her relationship with food and Mekenzie was recommended to me by a friend. My daughter met with Mekenzie for a couple months and it was really great! She helped her feel more knowledgeable and informed regarding her food choices, as well as being s a safe space for her talk to. It was definitely worth the while!

I've been working with Mekenzie for several months to get more protein in my diet. She is a wealth of knowledge and does a great job identifying solutions and explaining them clearly. I have learned a lot working with her and my diet has improved. Highly recommend!

Mekenzie was amazing! She helped me walk through everything, break things down to where I could understand and help provide a great start. Mekenzie has checked in regularly and is always available to provide support when needed!

I can’t recommend Kenzie enough! She helped me understand that food was not the cause of my pain, which completely changed the way I viewed eating. I had become so scared that I started believing food was my enemy, and she patiently helped me work through those fears with honesty, knowledge, and compassion. She truly listens, takes the time to understand your concerns, and genuinely wants to help. Beyond being an incredibly knowledgeable dietitian, she’s also an admirable person and an amazing coach. Her kindness, honesty, and dedication have made such a positive impact on my life, and I’m so grateful for everything she’s done for me. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who truly cares and is committed to helping you build a healthier relationship with food and your overall well-being.

I have been meeting with Mekenzie for a few months, and she has been so supportive in helping me create a more balanced diet! She takes time to get to know you as an individual and provides tailored advice based on your health/fitness goals. Her approach has helped me create healthier nutrition habits that compliment my active lifestyle. If you are looking for someone that is full of knowledge to help you with your nutrition needs, I would highly recommend her!

I’ve been working with Mekenzie for about three months now, and the experience has been valuable. As a crossfit athlete, it can be challenging to gauge how much I should be eating to support both performance and physique goals. Mekenzie has helped me fine-tune my daily nutrition in a way that aligns with what I want to see both in the mirror and in the gym. One of the biggest benefits has been how she’s broken down the basics of macros and nutrition into something practical and easy to apply. I feel much more confident in how I fuel my body day to day, and it’s made a noticeable difference in my training and recovery. I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking to better understand their nutrition and get more intentional with their eating.

I see Kenzie for nutrition and she is amazing! She is so knowledgeable in her field and also laid back and easy to connect with. She is helping me through nutrition along my pregnancy journey. No stress, just support and education!

Can't say enough good things about Mekenzie! We have only been working together for a little over 1 month but it's going really well and I appreciate her approach. I have never monitored food intake or kept a food log so she eased me into it. I also recommend getting the metabolic test if you've never done one as that was a helpful baseline to tell me how many calories per day I am burning at rest. I specifically hired Mekenzie because of her sports fitness background as I am a competitive swimmer and it's been eye opening at how much better my performance could be with the right foods. I already have more energy!
