Melanie Beham, RD

I am a Registered and Licensed Dietitian with 15 years of experience.  I have a Bachelor’s of Science in Nutrition with a minor in Biological Sciences from Ohio University and a Master’s of Science in Nutrition from Kent State University.   

​

I love exploring all areas of nutrition. Throughout my career, I have worked in hospitals, dialysis, long-term care, fitness centers, cardiac rehab centers, inpatient psychiatric units and outpatient behavioral health facilities, hospice programs, GI clinics, primary care physician’s offices, corporate wellness programs, oncology centers, cardiac rehab programs, and outpatient nutrition counseling. My two favorite niche’s of nutrition are on opposite ends of the spectrum; ICU patients particularly those requiring nutrition support (tube feed and IV nutrition) and outpatient nutrition and wellness clients.  

​

I specialize in weight management, heart health, diabetes, end of life care, and health / wellness coaching.   I am comfortable working with patient 16 years and older.  I love being able to help a client filter out all the noise of the nutrition fads and figure out the actual scientific facts, as well as, help them focus on and achieve their wellness goals.

​

I am passionate about living life to the fullest! Growing up in a military family introduced me to my love for traveling. I have traveled to all but five states. I am a cat mom and a human mom.  My girlfriend and I swear the cats and the kiddo are in cahoots with each other to get into as much mischief as possible. In addition to my love for food and travel, I love music and enjoy collecting vinyl records and going to as many concerts as I can afford.
