I am a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist and have a passion for helping others work toward achieving their ideal balance in life in regards to nutrition, movement, and self worth. Some of the topics we will likely discuss in our individual counseling sessions include nutrition counseling, your relationship with food, exercise, and your relationship with your body. I specialize in Wellness Counseling with Behavioral Modification, Eating Disorders and Diabetes, but have skills that apply to a broad range of people. I believe in a non-diet approach to health and tailor my recommendations to meet your needs where you're at.

Do you feel like something is off in your body, but you can’t get clear answers? Are you experiencing digestive symptoms such as bloating, gas, constipation, or diarrhea alongside fatigue, brain fog, weight changes, or thyroid concerns like Hashimoto’s? Have you been told your labs are “normal,” yet you still don’t feel like yourself? For many women, mid-life can bring overlapping symptoms that don’t fit neatly into one diagnosis. Digestive issues, hormone shifts, thyroid dysfunction, autoimmune conditions, and chronic stress are often deeply interconnected — and addressing just one piece rarely leads to lasting relief.
