Health Professionals in Minnesota

I work with individuals and families who have experienced loss of health and wellness due to a misalignment of the upper vertebra in the neck, called the atlas. This can occur from an accident or injury, or just develop over time. When the atlas is misaligned, numerous symptoms may be signaling a problem such as migraines, low back pain, fibromyalgia, digestive issues, high blood pressure, tinnitus, TMJ, vertigo, insomnia, depression, infertility, neck and shoulder pain, hip pain and short leg. I am a practicing member of the National Upper Cervical Chiropractic Association (NUCCA).

I am a non-diet Registered Dietitian, certified yoga instructor, and certified Intuitive Eating Counselor. I’m passionate about using weight-inclusive nutrition expertise to help clients facilitate body image healing and recovery from disordered eating. Aligned with the Health at Every Size principles, I believe all healthcare should be trauma informed and social justice oriented - because all people, (regardless of age, race, gender, sexual orientation/expression, abilities, & socioeconomic status) deserve appropriate and affirming care.

I specialize in sports performance and eating disorder care. I help athletes and active individuals ages 15-30 heal from disordered eating, an eating disorder or Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport (RED-S). My passion lies in helping others break free from diet culture, develop a positive relationship with food and achieve peak performance. I practice from an anti-diet, Healthy At Every Size (HAES) lens, meaning you will never hear me demonize food or bodies.

Are you looking for a way to heal not only the symptoms you are experiencing but also the root cause of those symptoms? Traditional Chinese Medicine emphasizes treating both with the use of acupuncture, herbs, and diet and lifestyle advice. These treatment modalities originate from an ancient healing system that has a 5000 year old history. Traditional Chinese Medicine is about balance and harmony, the energetic interplay of yin and yang. It emphasizes treating the mind, body, and spirit.

Working closely with clients to help them fuel for optimal performance and total wellness is what I do best. Are you struggling with low energy, poor workouts, knowing what to eat, losing weight, developing muscle tone, or managing a chronic disease? Together, we will create a sustainable fueling plan that incorporates the things you love while infusing nutrient packed foods along the way! Instead of limiting and avoiding certain foods, we will utilize all foods as fuel to help you succeed. When you finish you will improve your relationship with food, understand the importance of nutrient timing, and have confidence when fueling.

I strive to build confidence in your choices and become more in tune with your body's cues and needs. I seek to help my clients meet their wellness goals through an individualized approach. Whether you are looking for general nutrition education, improving your relationship with food, or other nutrition and health related challenges, I look forward to partnering with you on your journey.

For nearly 10 years, my body rebelled against my conventional low-fat, convenience food diet with IBS, intense anxiety, constant cravings, and chronic knee pain (all before the age of 25!). It wasn't until I learned about the healing power of a real food, anti-inflammatory diet and discovered some food sensitivities that I saw a dramatic relief in my digestive and joint symptoms, plus an improvement in how my brain functioned. Now, I am passionate about helping others find their own relief, breakthroughs, and successes in their journey of healing using simple, nutritious foods!

I'm passionate about helping individuals develop & maintain a peaceful relationship with food. I whole-heartedly believe that proper nutrition plays an important role in keeping one’s mind and body functioning to the best of its abilities, but that it doesn’t need to be as complicated as society might lead one to believe. I believe in an "all foods fit" approach and will strive to help you optimize your nutritional intake while honoring your body's hunger cues & genuine cravings. I'm a Health At Every Size RD and focus on behaviors with food over the number on the scale - because there is so much more to health than what you weigh!

My nutrition philosophy is unique in that I focus on providing evidence-based, individualized nutrition recommendations focusing on moderation, variety, and how to fit patients' favorite foods into a healthy eating lifestyle. This can improve quality of life for many individuals who feel they must restrict certain foods to be healthy or lose weight. In addition, I have a special passion for working with individuals with eating disorders, athletes/dancers, weight management, and GI conditions/food allergies. I look forward to supporting you in your nutrition and health journey.

Common problems I can help: neck and back pains, headaches, carpal tunnel, sciatica, arthritis, digestive problems, infections, high cholesterol, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia and others. I offer highly skilled adjustments of the spine, arms and leg joints to relieve pain and discomfort. I also focus on the muscles, tendons, ligaments and fascial imbalances that tend to recreate the pain cycle. By utilizing muscle testing methods I am able to pin point the area of imbalance and correct it with the necessary procedure.

I provide individualized nutrition and yoga therapy sessions with a focus on eating disorder recovery, positive body image, trauma recovery, stress management, neck and back pain, gut health, general health and wellness. I have over 20 years of experience in the field of nutrition. Combined, I have over 15 years of experience specializing in nutrition and yoga therapy for people who struggle with eating issues, body image, trauma, anxiety and depression symptoms. With the integration of nutrition and yoga therapy into their support plan, I have had the honor of witnessing numerous people find peace and happiness in body and mind.

I provide hope as I empower people to make nutrition and lifestyle changes that lead to improved health and well-being. I help with gut issues- IBS, food sensitivities, gluten intolerance, and more. Often, fixing gut issues solves problems in other areas. I also work with gut-brain communication and have advanced training in the prevention and treatment of cognitive decline using the Bredesen Lifestyle Protocol. Finally, as a Certified Diabetes Care and Education Specialist, I help people manage or prevent diabetes. I offer specific nutritional tests and interpretation of results in order to further personalize a nutrition plan.

With weekly support, we educate, empower and collaborate with our clients so they understand what and how to eat.

Food has the ability to be nostalgic, to bring people together, and to heal. However, we are often bombarded by unrealistic expectations set my ourselves and society that can change our relationship with food. By using intuitive eating principles and anti-weight biased nutrition education, I help clients to create a definition of health that does not revolve around weight and dieting.
