Natalie understands that for those working through disordered eating patterns or an eating disorder, there is oftentimes a missing mind-body connection. Natalie believes it is imperative to work with patients to reconnect the mind and body to repair ones' healthy relationship with food, and doing so in a way that aligns with their lifestyle and personal values. Natalie approaches food and eating from a non-diet perspective, using Intuitive Eating principles and works with you from a weight neutral standpoint.

I have been a dietitian since 2017 and have learned so much throughout the years. I specialize in renal disease, transplant (pre or post), diabetes, blood pressure, or cholesterol management and weight loss. I enjoy developing a good relationship with patients, not just learning about their diet, but their overall lifestyle. I am very flexible depending on patient's learning preferences and am happy to adjust education as needed. I look forward to working with new clients and helping as much as I can!

No, you don't need drugs to improve your blood sugar, lose weight, or deal with PCOS. Yes, medications might seem convenient; however, this road goes nowhere. With time, your drug quantity will increase because these drugs can’t treat the causes of your problems. Based on the latest research, effective treatment of diabetes and PCOS can be achieved by working with gut microbiome. I use gut microbiome in my practice not only to lower insulin resistance and lower blood glucose but also for weight loss, getting regular periods, and improving the ability to conceive for girls with PCOS.

I am passionate about guiding women in re-establishing a good relationship with food and their bodies. By focusing on health-related goals instead of body size or a number on a scale and challenging food rules that lead to disordered eating, I help individuals regain confidence in themselves and develop autonomy. I am also passionate in working with mothers and future mothers-to-be who want to raise resilient intuitive eaters.

I am interested in the preventive side of healthcare, and truly believe food can be medicine. I view my health as one of the most important things in my life, and I want to encourage my clients to see the value in their health and accomplish their wellness goals. I personally follow a pescetarian, but mostly plant-based diet, and am a huge proponent of any type of movement. I would love to share my knowledge of food and passion for wellness with you, and help you reach your goals.

Only clients know what new habits will fit in their lifestyle. Gwen therefore works collaboratively with you to introduce gradual changes. Gwen will guide you to create a plan that is sustainable and doesn’t exclude any foods, while helping you to manage symptoms, such as elevated blood glucose, triglycerides, cholesterol or blood pressure. If desired, Gwen can also support you with triggers of mindless eating, unhelpful food-related thoughts, managing your food environment and learning to overcome lapses with self-compassion.
