Morgan Jones RD, LD, CNSC, CFNIP

Posted April 3, 2024

Morgan is a dedicated registered dietitian who has always harbored an insatiable passion for nutrition!  It’s a field where science intertwines with everyday life, and where misinformation can lead to significant consequences.  Her journey into this realm began with a simple fascination for how food impacts our bodies, minds, and overall well-being.  Along this journey, she realized the prevalence of misinformation surrounding nutrition.  In today’s world where everyone seems to be an expert and fad diets reign supreme, separating fact from fiction can be a daunting task.  Yet, it’s a challenge Morgan has wholeheartedly embraced.  Her mission is to not only to provide individuals with sound nutritional guidance but also to empower them with the skills to navigate through the sea of misinformation.  There is nothing more rewarding than witnessing that “aha” moment for patients or clients!  It’s a moment of clarity that not only transforms their approach to food but also instills a newfound sense of confidence in their dietary decisions.

Prior to joining Healthier Tomorrows, Morgan’s work was focused on helping clients achieve and maintain their wellness goals through healthy eating, activity, and lifestyle modification.  She then found a passion in clinical nutrition with a specialty in transplant, renal, and ICU Medical Nutrition Therapy.  Morgan has significant experience providing education and guidance for patients with diabetes, heart failure, hypertension, and liver failure. She is a Certified Nutrition Support Clinician to provide quality nutrition support care.  She is excited to now be focused on supporting clients in an outpatient setting, and enjoys diving into gut health, hormonal health, and meal planning, and enjoys looking at wellness through a functional lens.

In her free time, she loves to run outdoors, cook, read, organize, explore new restaurants, and spend time with friends and her husband.

Stephen Menyhart RD, LDN, SNS

Posted April 4, 2025

Throughout my varied career, I have always worked at the intersection of food and people. The part I love most about being a dietitian is the opportunity to help people thrive.

As a dietitian, I have an open, creative, and light-hearted approach to counseling. I strive to meet each client’s personal needs and goals, within the parameters of their own life. As a neurodiverse individual myself, I love working with clients on the neurodiversity spectrum and understanding how those differences affect the way we perceive and experience the world through food.

Prior to becoming an outpatient dietitian, I spent 10 years working in high end restaurant kitchens in Chicago and London. I later worked for 10+ years in School Nutrition Programs, feeding children. One of my proudest professional achievements was leading the transition of our school nutrition program into a community hunger relief operation during the pandemic period. I also played competitive rugby for 15 years and enjoy working with athletes to optimize their athletic performance through nutrition.

I work with all types of eating disorders and am a certified specialist in ARFID. I also have extensive experience with diabetes, oncology, and weight management; and work effectively with all ages, including the pediatric and geriatric populations.

As a proud citizen of both the UK and the U.S., I enjoy working with all nationalities and cultural backgrounds, and understanding the unique food heritage of each person and household.

In my volunteer time, I co-facilitate a monthly men’s eating disorder group and work with a nonprofit organization providing mental health resources for the Food/Beverage/Hospitality industry.

I live in sunny Boulder, Colorado, with my wife and two teenagers, where I appreciate the opportunities to ski, whitewater raft, and hike 14ers in the beautiful Rocky Mountains.

It’s not uncommon to feel lost and confused when it comes to food. In fact, it’s frequently the norm. Jess steers away from the diet-mentality and focuses on a food-as-medicine and a “good, better, best” approach to educate and motivate clients to thrive and grow.  Using her philosophy and approach, which are rooted in functional medicine, she has guided clients in healing and repairing their gut; supporting thyroid and immune health, reversing diabetes, elevated cholesterol, and high blood pressure; minimizing and managing pain and headaches; and supporting couples in preconception, pregnancy, and postpartum health.  She works with her clients to create a highly customized plan to support their specific health and wellness goals for optimal health.  In addition, with her emphasis on functional nutrition, she takes into consideration every aspect of each client’s health, diet, and overall lifestyle when providing nutrition recommendations.

Jess is also a Certified Functional Nutrition Informed Professional (CFNIP), Certified LEAP Therapist (CLT), and serves as the Functional Nutrition Director at Healthier Tomorrows.  Practicing functionally offers individualized food and lifestyle goals that address the root cause of illness and health struggles, rather than just addressing symptoms.  As Functional Nutrition Director, Jess advises and clinically supervises the dietitians at Healthier Tomorrows in looking at wellness from a functional perspective and addressing the whole body to support clients in optimizing their health.

Being food and chemical sensitivities are often at the root of the inflammatory processes within the body, Jess obtained her CLT certification.  With her CLT certification she uses Mediator Release Testing to measure an individual’s reaction to 176 foods and chemicals to establish the most effective anti-inflammatory diet plan for the individual’s specific needs.

Jess obtained her undergraduate degree in dietetics from Bradley University and completed her dietetic internship through the University of Houston.  She was part of the Healthier Tomorrows dietetic team from 2013 through 2015, and rejoined Healthier Tomorrows in 2020 to provide virtual nutrition education and support!  She has significant experience working with clients in outpatient settings, and she enjoys fostering relationships with clients and providing ongoing support.
