Background

Hello! I’m Mercedes Porter, a Registered Dietitian with a passion for helping individuals achieve their health and wellness goals. I hold a Master of Science in Applied Nutrition and Dietetics from Logan University; I bring a strong academic foundation and extensive practical experience to my practice.

Currently, I specialize in developing personalized nutrition plans tailored to individual needs, addressing a range of medical conditions from pediatrics to eating disorders and so much more. My background as a Dietitian has allowed me to guide clients through weight management and lifestyle changes, empowering them to cultivate sustainable, healthy habits.

I believe nutrition should be both nourishing and enjoyable. I strive to create a warm and supportive environment where clients feel comfortable exploring their dietary choices. My approach focuses on education and empowerment, ensuring you have the tools you need to succeed on your wellness journey.

Outside of work, you can find me practicing Pilates, cooking up healthy meals, or enjoying time outdoors! I love staying active and experimenting with new recipes that celebrate wholesome ingredients. Together, we can make nutrition a positive and integral part of your life.
