About Michaela Parr
Michaela strongly believes that making healthy, sustainable, and nourishing choices takes time and requires a strong partnership between the client and herself. Changes can be difficult, and you need a caring partner to help you through them and make the process enjoyable. Michaela stands by the idea that being healthy includes nutrition, mental, and physical health. These three factors are deeply intertwined and all need to be addressed. She believes science drives sound nutrition counseling, helping to reduce the diet culture buzz from outside sources. Everyone is unique, and Michaela believes nutrition is not one size fits all. She creates personalized nutrition care for each individual to result in long-lasting changes and improved quality of life.
Michaela earned her Bachelor's degree in Food and Nutrition from The University of Alabama and completed an Internship in Dietetics at Rush Copley.
Approach to Care
Michaela believes being healthy involves nutrition, mental, and physical health. When one leg of this "stool" is off balance, we feel unstable. It is important to work on all three to be our best selves. Building a strong base is essential for growth and progress! Food is a powerful tool that can make us feel healthy, alive, and empowered. Michaela strives to provide a collaborative space to engage in great conversations and offer education around nutrition to help clients make sustainable habits and lifestyle changes.
What to Expect
During the initial session, Michaela tries to get to know you, your values, and who you want to be. You will talk about your past, present, and future so Michaela can truly understand you. She will ask about sleep, stress, social life, family life, food, exercise, and more to address all aspects of your life and create the best plan of care.

I was pleased with my initial visit with Michaela. I had some very specific questions, as I am trying to both lose fat and gain muscle through a strict exercise and nutrition regimen. Michaela was able to listen to my unique situation and help to hone in on a nutritional plan that would help me better meet my needs without sacrificing micronutrients in order to meet daily macronutrient ratios.
