At Exterior Wellness, I work with individuals who feel overwhelmed by persistent symptoms despite doing many of the “right” things. Fatigue, inflammation, weight changes, hormonal imbalance, acne, brain fog, and recurrent health issues can be signs that the body’s clearance systems are under more strain than they can manage. I believe supporting clearance & circulation is foundational to health. Detoxification is not only about how the body processes and eliminates toxins—it also involves reducing the constant influx of new exposures. My approach emphasizes individual predisposition, lymphatic flow, and biotransformation pathways

As a Certified Eating Disorder Nutrition Therapist, my goal is to repair, rebuild and restore you back to health by teaching you how to renourish yourself mind, body and spirit, verses just teaching you how to eat. In most cases, successful nutrition therapy is not a "quick-fix". My role is to have a clear understanding of your goals and to work with you step-by-step in helping you to achieve them. I have a collaborative approach focusing on progress not perfection and believe in using the food plan that best fits you.
