My work centers on understanding you as an individual, your needs, your culture, your preferences, and your health goals. I believe nutrition care works best when you are actively involved in the process, so I prioritize shared decision-making and goal setting that feels realistic and meaningful to you.

My ideal clients are adults who have been dealing with ongoing health issues and feel like nothing has fully added up yet. They may struggle with digestion, fatigue, anxiety or low mood, skin issues, inflammation, or symptoms that seem to affect multiple areas of the body at once. Often, they’ve tried conventional care or standard nutrition approaches and are still looking for answers. What they want most is to understand why they feel the way they do and to work with someone who looks at the whole picture rather than treating one symptom at a time.

Hi, I'm Beth Barnett-Boebel, and I’m here to help you get to the root of what is not working in your body and your mind.

This is where nutrition therapy comes in, getting through the patterns that have you stuck in the “on and off” a plan of getting healthy.

Are you working hard in the gym but not seeing the results show up in your health? Or perhaps you know what to eat, but struggle to make it stick in a busy lifestyle?
It is incredibly frustrating to feel like you are doing everything "right"—exercising and trying to eat well—yet still dealing with low energy, stubborn weight issues, or confusing lab results. You don't need another generic meal plan or a drill sergeant; you need a strategy that connects the dots between your movement and your metabolism to finally see results.

It is not often we are encouraged to honor our bodies needs. We live in world that teaches us to "watch it" and "have it together", especially around weight and food. Unfortunately, this constant pressure to "be good" can play a role in constant dieting, restricting, binging, purging and an all or nothing attitude around exercise. Fortunately, we can make peace with food and our bodies again. Our approach of trauma informed nutrition counseling and coaching teaches non-diet eating and body wisdom skills to learn to trust and feel safe inside the body and manage chronic issues such as burned and stressed out, PCOS and gut health.

I am Jingyu Gu, PhD & Lic. Acu. My acupuncture practice started in 1972 in Shanghai. I founded the Taiji & Qigong Meditation Center and Wellspring Acupuncture & Holistic Health Clinic. My patients receive not only standard acupuncture and herbal treatments but also instruction on therapeutic taiji and qigong exercises. This harmonious and holistic treatment paradigm is the highest often hard-to-reach level of therapy in the TCM tradition. I taught these subjects in the Texas College of TCM (TX Health & Science Univ.) as well to acupuncturists for their CEU and served on the Texas State Board of Acupuncture Examiners for 5 years.

Your condition is prudently evaluated, and a treatment plan is developed to best fit your needs.
