Background

Hi, my name is McKenna, I am a Registered Dietitian with a Masters in Public Health Nutrition. I am based in the sunny mountain town of Flagstaff, Arizona. I enjoy working with a variety of conditions with the goal of supporting my patients health and over all quality of life. I hold a bachelors degree in Psychology and previously worked as a Behavioral Therapist and Yoga Teacher. I worked on organic veggie, fruit, and herb farms for many years and love the magic of growing food. Working as a dietitian is a synthesis of my interests and values. Nutrition has been a pivotal tool in my life. For a period of time I struggled greatly with GI issues and my mental health. Working with my nutrition freed me from feeling physically sick from food intolerances, helped me to understand the connection between my nutrition and my mood, and ultimately and allowed me to fuel my body to be able to do things that bring me happiness!

Approach

"I have a rich background in Motivational Interviewing and utilize this frame work to facilitate patient led sessions to promote goal setting that feels valuable and relevant to each individual patient. I believe in the Non Diet approach and Intuitive Eating but also find value in discussing portion sizes, label reading, and educating on macronutrients. When patients are seeking information, I feel that pairing foundational nutrition education with intuitive eating practices provides my patients"
