Health Professionals in Saint Louis County, MO
I have been in practice for 33years, and have had the privilege and honor to assist thousands of people pursuing natural and effective healthcare, and an answer for their problem. It is rarely easy, especially because problems become compounded due to delay, western medicine approaches, and certain lifestyle choices. We all hope for and want good health, to feel good most of the time, and to feel great some of the time, but things happen that put us in the cross-hairs of worrisome health issues. Common, are the side effects of stress, sleep deprivation, and poor diet.

My ideal client is looking for a solution to a health concern that either has no medical solution, or for which the only known solution is medication or surgery. Many people come to me for allergy symptoms (eczema, congestion, digestive complaints, etc.), digestive issues (bloating, constipation, diarrhea, IBS, SIBO, candida), chronic infections and many other health concerns. The techniques I use are gentle enough for people in almost any condition (I have treated newborns, geriatric patients, and patients with spinal metastasis). I have helped patients avoid an array of unwanted treatments from antibiotics to spinal surgery.

As a registered dietitian, I specialize in intuitive eating by teaching individuals to give up the diet mentality and start focusing on incorporating all foods into their diet. I also use this same philosophy among the athletes I work with and those struggling with eating disorders and disordered eating. I teach my clients to empower themselves to start saying yes to foods instead of no. Changing the way we eat is a lifestyle change but it doesn’t have to be radical either. Nutrition does not have to be difficult, but somehow we have made eating food very confusing.
