I work one-on-one with clients in a supportive, collaborative environment and utilize a totally customized approach that is specifically tailored towards each client’s individual needs.

I aim to empower my clients with the knowledge and tools they need to continue their health journey with confidence and clarity!

My ideal client is someone who feels like they’ve “never been well since” a particular health event—whether from stress, trauma, chronic illness, or environmental toxicity. They struggle with issues like fatigue, blood sugar imbalances, hormonal shifts, digestive problems, or mold toxicity, and they feel frustrated by conventional medicine’s lack of answers. They’re looking for a holistic, root-cause approach that blends science and natural healing. Their goal is to restore their energy, balance their body, and reclaim their vitality, using personalized, whole-body solutions that truly work.

Hello! I'm Melinda Benz, Registered Dietitian Nutritionist. Are you interested in starting or modifying a plant-based or vegan lifestyle for your health, animal welfare, the environment, or all of the above?
From common plant-based and vegan-related questions, such as "Where do you get your protein?", “How do you meet calcium needs for bone health?" or "Aren’t vegan diets too restrictive?" can make the abundance of nutrition information out there feel overwhelming when trying to make sustainable eating habits and lifestyle changes.

I’m a Naturopathic Doctor. My focus is working with people who are struggling with chronic symptoms/disease, chronic inflammation and autoimmunity. This could be a 22 year old with IBS and anxiety, a 42 woman in perimenopause with a mysterious skin rash, or a 60 year old with Rheumatoid Arthritis.
Chronic disease can be any number of clearly diagnosed diseases or it can be the messy mishmash of vague, nagging symptoms (ex: fatigue, digestive upset, acne, hair loss, pain, etc..) that make you feel bad, but your MD says all your lab tests are "normal" and then offers you an antidepressant.

Understanding nutrition can feel impossible in a world where information can become skewed by diet culture and trendy food fads. My goal as a dietitian is to provide the space where we can break it all down and learn about nutrition from a neutral lens. I practice from a non-diet, weight-inclusive approach to help you work toward finding peace with food and your body. Food can be so much more than just nourishment, and my hope is to help you find food freedom.

The body was designed to heal! I learned this myself as a young woman when I battled sleep issues, constant fatigue, anxiety, frustrating weight gain, and brain fog. Even as a child I had these and other digestive issues. I tried everything! I felt like I was eating well and exercising, and the problems would not subside. It wasn't until I discovered a different way of approaching and solving problems that were the ROOT CAUSE of my issues did I see success. And today, I'm symptom-free, and have been for many years. I love the opportunity to serve Colorado Springs and help my patients get incredible results.

I like the opportunity to work collaboratively with clients, setting and aligning realistic goals, and working through any barriers or challenges that may arise that may be impeding on the client meeting their personal goals.
