Depression Nutritionists and Dietitians near Norwalk, CT

Struggling with chronic inflammatory diseases such as heartburn, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), ADHD, anxiety, depression, migraines, arthritis, Crohn's, colitis, eosinophilic esophagitis, fibromyalgia, Lyme, chronic pain, eczema? Have a child with autism, PANS/PANDAS, developmental delay, colic? Want to plan for a healthy baby? Enhance fertilty? Food sensitivities, impaired gut health, nutritional deficiencies and poor food quality all play a role in chronic illness.

Functional medicine nutrition aims to address the root cause of disease instead of just managing symptoms. As a nutritionist I believe in the body's innate ability to heal itself. By healing the gut, rebalancing nutrient levels and gently eliminating toxins we can create the conditions for true health. I enjoy working with a diverse clientele, from individuals of all ages to families, and welcome all stages of each person's healing journey, whether you are a seasoned foodie or just starting out.

Do you have an unhealthy relationship with food? Do you get stressed thinking about what to eat? Have you tried different ways of eating to help you feel better and nothing seems to work? Like you, I struggled. I have ADHD, Thyroid Disease, and had disordered eating patterns for many years. I help people identify the root cause of their illness and incorporate nutritional changes. I know what it's like to have a negative body image and be exhausted from thinking about what I could and couldn't eat. Food should bring joy and satisfaction, not stress.

I help women who are struggling with a health issue or frustrating symptoms make sustainable diet and lifestyle changes so that they feel truly empowered in their health and their lives.
