Nutritionists and Dietitians near New Canaan, CT

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.

I am a non-diet Registered Dietitian and a gut health expert practicing from a weight-inclusive approach. I help my clients find relief from digestive disorders such as Irritable Bowel Disease (IBS), Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO), Gastroparesis, Colitis, and GERD. I have also designed techniques and programs to empower chronic dieters, disordered eaters, and those in eating disorder recovery to mend their relationship with food and their bodies. My goal is to empower you to choose dietary interventions for the pursuit of health and wellness instead of using diets to manipulate your body for thinness.

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.

With a client centered approach, I provide individualized nutrition counseling people of all ages. There is no “one size fits all” solution when it comes to achieving health.

I help women who are struggling to lose weight implement simple, sustainable food and lifestyle habits so they can support a healthy metabolism, balance hormones, increase energy levels, and permanently lose weight without counting calories or following restrictive diets.

I have dedicated myself to help female endurance athletes ages 15-38 find natural ways to improve their performance, energy and stamina to reach their athletic potential. Some have struggled with disordered eating patterns, several trips to the doctors without answers, low energy, hormonal issues, frequent illness, gut issues such as bloating, IBS attributed to potential food sensitivities and feeling completely overwhelmed and frustrated about the right nutritional plan for their individual needs. I get down to the root causes through alternative testing, lifestyle changes, and meal planning.
