Health Professionals in Seattle, WA

Are you tired of being confused about what to eat? I'm here for you! As a nutritionist that has practiced for nearly twenty years, I have seen a lot of fads come and go. And I have worked with so many of you who have come to me unsure about which fad was “right”. Instead of focusing on the perfectly “right” way to eat, I help my clients find the right ways to eat for them, while also helping to reverse prediabetes, improve fertility or symptoms with PCOS, and create a more resilient immune and hormonal balance with autoimmune conditions such as Hashimoto’s disease.

I practice in a naturopathic primary care setting and see patients of all ages, including pediatrics. I typically use a combination of diet and lifestyle counseling, nutritional supplements, botanical medicine, and homeopathy to help restore health and empower my patients.

With the plethora of pervasive nutrition advice and a culture fixated on health and thinness it makes sense to be overwhelmed, frustrated, and hurt by the task of feeding and caring for ourselves. Messages about “good” versus “bad” foods (and bodies) pervade our psyche from the youngest of ages. We are made to believe that there is a path to the perfect body and diet, and that it is just around the corner if we only continue the exhausting pursuit. The diet culture we all live in steals happiness and makes us become distrustful of our bodies. I firmly believe there is another way, a more sustainable approach to food and health.

I am deeply passionate about acupuncture and its incredible ability to promote healing and transformation in all bodies. Acupuncture is an ancient medicine which views the body as a unified whole and encourages health through balance and regulation of body-wide systems. It is an excellent therapy for the treatment of pain, injuries, digestive issues, fertility and gynecological concerns, headaches, psycho-emotional imbalances, sleep disorders, and so much more. Not to mention it offers you a rare opportunity to relax and recharge free from distraction.

I am an enthusiastic and dedicated dietitian who is also a self-proclaimed habit-itian. Why? Because I believe that maintaining a healthy lifestyle relies on our daily habits which go beyond what we eat. As a result, I can help you discover the powerful connections between stress, sleep, movement, and how they correlate to your overall health.

I am passionate about nutrition and love helping people to understand its complexities without feeling overwhelmed or frustrated. I believe that food is a beautiful part of life and should be enjoyed!

Our bodies are our first homes. And yet, the struggle to belong in our skin and bones is widespread. From an early age, we are taught to mistrust our bodies; tune out its sensations and longings.

You are here because you know you deserve to belong in your body. I am here to witness your journey toward building a loving and embodied relationship with yourself and the world around you.
