Health Professionals in Texas
My clients are adults, teens, and athletes who are tired of fighting with food. Some are in recovery from anorexia, bulimia, binge eating, or ARFID. Some are athletes underfueling without realizing it. Others have spent years dieting, feeling out of control around food, or following rules that stopped working. They're not looking for another meal plan that tells them what they're doing wrong — they want support that actually fits their life. Many come in already knowing something needs to change. They just need a space to figure out what that looks like without shame or pressure.

I faced significant health challenges growing up, struggling with Inflammatory Bowel Disease throughout my childhood and into adulthood. My interest in nutrition grew as I realized it could greatly improve my quality of life. I strongly believe in the power of food as medicine, as it has transformed my health and benefited my entire family. Additionally, I developed a deep interest in diabetes care, which led me to become a Board-Certified Diabetes Care and Education Specialist 25+ years ago. I've helped many patients lower their A1C levels and achieve significant weight loss and improve stamina through simple lifestyle changes.

You’re doing everything “right”… but still feel off.
Tired. Bloated. Moody. Wired but exhausted. Your periods are unpredictable, your digestion is a mess, and your energy just doesn’t bounce back like it used to.
Maybe your labs came back “normal,” but you know deep down something isn’t right.
