I founded my company, Total Nutrition Technology (TNT) is 1993 due to my own struggles with weight and health.

I live and practice by the belief that all foods have a place in a healthy and balanced diet, and that no one food is “bad”. In a society where we are constantly searching for the next trending diet plan or magic pill, I am committed to countering the noise with evidence-based information and a mind-body approach to nutrition and overall wellbeing. I am passionate about helping my clients make realistic and sustainable lifestyle changes that they feel good about – physically, mentally and emotionally.

Are you struggling with bloating & gut symptoms with NO answers as to WHY? Are you lacking confidence (especially in social settings) due to your bloat & gut symptoms? Do you have symptoms that you think are related to your poor gut health (i.e. acne, hormonal imbalances, brain fog, etc.)? As a young, busy woman, it can feel exhausting when you're trying to figure everything out on your own, with little direction and clarity. I can imagine that your hormonal imbalances & frustrating gut issues are making you feel fatigued with low mood, unable to think clearly, feel overwhelmed, and lack confidence in your skin.

I can help you by doing "medical detective" work. This means addressing the most fundamental causes of disease, not just treating symptoms. Many of my patients have seen multiple specialists with no improvement, and are tired of drugs and their side effects. If you are ready for a new, natural, comprehensive approach to your health, let's embark on the journey together. Let's get to the bottom of what's going on, and work together to improve not only how you look & feel now, but prevent problems in the future.

At least 80% of people who seek long-term weight loss will regain that weight. And so begins the cycle that many find themselves in - up and down, up and down. If you feel the frustration of that rollercoaster and are ready to discover your 'why' and begin the path to sustainable weight loss, then I am ready to partner with you in achieving your goals.

I offer a weight neutral, client-centered, non-judgmental, trauma informed and somatically oriented approach to nutrition counseling where we work together to explore and heal your relationship with food and body image. I specialize in working with folks who have eating disorders, disordered eating, diabetes, PCOS and athletes. These experiences help inform my nutrition practice and I’m excited to continue to learn from the clients I have the privilege of working with now.

If you are struggling to develop a peaceful relationship with food, know that you are not alone. Confusing messages telling us how to eat, what to eat, and when to eat can make us wonder why eating has gotten so complicated. The short answer: it doesn't have to be. Whether you have been diagnosed with an eating disorder, suffer from disordered eating, or just want to know how to nourish your body without going on another diet, I can help.

As a dietitian I am able to help people in a variety of ways. From sports performance, weight management, diabetes and disease management and other client needs I have been trained in a variety of areas to understand and apply science and research to develop the plan of action to help. Using evidenced based practices, I am able to create and execute a realistic and achievable plan for my clients.

Is this you? You were diagnosed with PCOS and told to “just lose weight and come back when you want to get pregnant” but you have symptoms that you want addressed now... like elevated blood sugar, fatigue, and irregular periods. You've tried so many diets but dieting only leads you to binge because you have constant hunger and sugar cravings.
