Our Process
🌙Assessment
We’ll begin with intake forms. In our first meetings, we’ll discuss health history and our findings from your menopausal symptom questionnaire.
We’ll review your food and medical history, relationship with food and body image, and menopausal symptoms and concerns.
🌙Supplement Assessment
Many of us take supplements without having the chance to look them over with a trained provider.
Let’s look at the research together and assess your need for supplements.
Melinda does not partner with or participate in supplement affiliate/referral programs.
🌙Regular Eating
For many clients, a foundational approach to working together is focusing on consistent, regular eating, especially during the daytime. While finding this groove looks a little different for everyone, eating regularly is a principle of our work.
🌙Plan
With you in the pilot seat, we’ll co-create a plan for menopausal wellness.
In addition to nutrition, we’ll check in on movement, mental health, stress, sleep, and fun.
We can create a plan for labwork that won’t stress you out.
I’m happy to offer referrals to specialized practitioners through my trusted referral network.
