You can't pour from an empty cup.
Are you ready to prioritize your wellness and make a change?
Navigating the world of nutrition can be very confusing and stressful, especially when you’re not feeling your best. How do you really know what you should eat?
You may feel overwhelmed as to what to eat to support your body and are too tired, bloated, and stressed to figure it out. Deep down you feel frustrated with the approach many of your doctors have taken and know that even if "your labs look great!" something doesn't feel right.
You may…
-Strive to feel lighter and stronger in your body.
-Feel confused about why you get so bloated as the day goes on.
-Hit a wall in the afternoon, needing to grab caffeine or sugar for energy.
-Feel bogged down by PMS symptoms each month, not feeling like yourself.
-Fight late night cravings and binges.
-Become extremely overwhelmed when faced with stress.
By using my experiences, nutritional education, guidance, goal setting and accountability I will help you discover your pathway to wellness. Together we figure out what healthy eating looks like for you, so you can feel empowered to support your body towards becoming the healthiest version of yourself!
It is important to me that as we formulate a plan to address your health concerns we spend time for me to understand your daily life. We will delve into analyzing your health history, current lifestyle habits, irritating symptoms and concerns you commonly experience. We will address any nutritional imbalances using Nutritional Therapy, supplementation, and lifestyle support practices. You will learn how to tune into your body's needs to restore and optimize your well-being. My goal is to help you figure out how to support your wellness and minimize your symptoms through building habits that are enjoyable and sustainable to your lifestyle.
With an emphasis on eating minimally processed whole-foods you will explore and embrace your unique relationship to nutrition in order to gain insight around how certain foods make you feel physically and emotionally. We will cover the importance of optimizing digestion, balancing blood sugar, properly hydrating, supporting detoxification pathways, and managing your stress to create a safe environment for your body to thrive in.
This approach is not a quick fix; change takes time, consistency, lots of self-love and compassion.
But that's why I am here.
We'll take one step at a time. We’ve got this!

Tools we Use to Evaluate and Heal
NAQ & Health History Intake
I do detective work to gain a deep understanding between various lifestyle factors and your signs and symptoms. I evaluate your Health History, Nutritional Assessment Questionnaire, and Symptom Burden Graph. Symptoms can take years to accumulate and overtime they can turn into a domino effect. I need to dig deep to understand why they are happening in the first place.
​
Food Mood Journal
This in-depth analysis of your daily nutrition intake, lifestyle habits, and patterns around your symptoms helps me better understand your motivators, concerns, and needs. With this information we increase your awareness of the patterns around what you eat, how you feel, how much you move and how you digest your food in order to identify opportunities for support while creating your personalized Wellness Plan.
​
Motivational Interviewing & SMART Goals
As your practitioner I am like a GPS system, providing you with a roadmap to help you navigate where to go; and you are the driver, owning responsibility and deciding which route you feel best taking. I partner with you in order to define your wellness goals and create a personalized Wellness Plan to support behavior change that aligns with your vision. We always start with what feels most important and realistic to you and will break down your plan into actionable steps that are specific, measurable and attainable. Together, we bridge the gap between knowing what you want to do and actually doing it by building habits that you will be able to maintain throughout your lifetime. You will feel confident about how to move forward and make progress.

Functional Testing
​
I currently run the GI-Map Stool Test, the MRT Food Sensitivity Panel, and the Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis (HTMA). Though these are not diagnostic tests, they are used as tools to identify any underlying imbalances in the body. I believe in testing, not guessing, which reduces stress while figuring out what support your body needs nutritionally.
