Why would someone want to work with me? What makes me different? I believe that each client is a person not what ails them at the time they are seeking help. Clients I treat as individuals and there is not one protocol or approach for each person. I usually see clients who have already tried mainstream medical care and are just not finding the relief they sought. They know there is more work to do however, they are possibly not being heard by their current healthcare providers or not at their optimal state of health that they know they can feel or once felt.

I am a clinically trained, board certified nutritionist specializing in a whole-body approach to health and wellness. Too often, patients are at the mercy of conventional testing methods that overlook many of the symptoms commonly experienced today such as bloating, fatigue, skin conditions, digestive issues, weight gain or loss, brain fog, mood swings, sleep disturbance, pain, sugar imbalance and hormonal issues (to name a few).
