Meg Williams Morais, RD

Hey there, I am Meg! I am the mixed, Italian and African American owner/operator of Phases Intuitive Wellness.

​

I am a food relationships dietitian and hold both a BS and MS degree in Nutrition and Dietetics. I received these through the Blue-zoned, plant-based school of Loma Linda University in California. I hail from Southern California, myself, and it was there I acquired a background in the arts, anthropology, and cosmetology. I have two free-spirited and loving kiddos and currently reside in Charleston, SC. I excitedly work with clients seeking guidance with their food relationships, ready to take part in their own wellness journey. My role is as mentor and guide throughout your expedition of self-discovery where you will learn how to properly nourish your body and mind in all phases of life (and cycle - as it may apply to you). 

​

As an Eating Disorder dietitian I have worked within all levels of ED care from Inpatient through Residential, to PHP through Outpatient. I have found there is a significant deficiency in support for those that do not fit within the specific guidelines of Eating Disorder diagnoses, yet do struggle with dieting or whole macronutrient elimination, significant body changes, negative self-talk, variable restriction, emotional eating, and over-exercise. Perhaps they skip most meals because of their schedule or simply have lost touch with their hunger and fullness cues. Maybe they’ve never tracked their cycle and don’t know where to begin, or they have painful menstruation or PMOS (previously known as PCOS). Whatever the story, I am here to hold a brave space for transformation through accountability while reminding you that softness is not the enemy and satisfaction is vital.

​

So though I still accept Eating Disorder recovery clients that are appropriate for Outpatient care, my focus is significantly comprised of the women and persons with cyclical hormones that would otherwise get left behind hoping ChatGPT or TikTok can help them figure it out. I work with these individuals because we all deserve to nourish ourselves and live a life emancipated from the constant food and body talk and thoughts. Because I too struggled with disordered eating patterns and body dysmorphia but did not quite fit the extremes needed for getting care.

​

When we work together, our focus is on nourishment of the body and mind, trust in one’s own “knowing”, and a reclamation of self-love, self-devotion , and satisfaction. We cover nutrition education as appropriate for your own needs, recognizing your interoceptive cues, and learning Intuitive Eating Principles.

​

Please keep in mind that though I do have experience with adolescents, I currently focus solely on adults as my style of nutrition counseling requires autonomy and self-sufficiency.
