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'm passionate about helping people feel better in their body, integrate healthier lifestyle habits and finding solutions for health issues. My main focus in my work is empowering individuals with the tools and information they need to achieve their goals. I provide nutritional counseling as well as rehabilitative training and craniosacral therapy. I have a weight-neutral practice, which means I do not use weight loss as the main metric for success.

I believe everyone has the right to live an energetic, symptom free life and have epic daily poops. Bloating, reflux, irregular bowel movements, gas, food sensitivities, chronic fatigue, weight fluctuations and skin issues are not normaI and are not all in your head. I help people struggling with chronic gut health issues overcome their symptoms through evidence based, plant centered nutrition strategies when conventional medicine has failed them. Together we will take an individualized, holistic approach to restore your gut health, calm inflammation and ditch the diets so you can feel confident in the way you eat, look, and feel.

We live in a diet-obsessed culture that hyper-focuses on thinness as a proxy for health. Many of us have lost touch with our body's innate hunger and fullness cues because we have tried so many different diet plans, detoxes, cleanses, and "lifestyle changes." All of these dietary experiments ultimately wreak havoc on our mental and physical health, leading to disordered eating, anxiety, obsessive thoughts, and weight cycling, among other things. Many of my clients tell me they just don't know what to eat anymore because of all the dietary rules to which they have been adhering.

I work with clients who suffer with GI disorders, auto immune diseases, food sensitivities and those who struggle with weight management. A personalized treatment plan is provided to help you get to the root cause of your health issues and provide you with the solutions that is needed to be able to enjoy life again. Your care includes nutrition education and counseling, nutritional supplement recommendations as needed, and physical activity guidance. Genetic, metabolic, food sensitivity, and micronutrient testing is offered for a well rounded approach to optimal health.
