I founded my company, Total Nutrition Technology (TNT) is 1993 due to my own struggles with weight and health. I understand that when it comes to weight loss & health management it is a personal journey- not a one size fits all.

We specialize in weight loss, health management and sports performance. TNT is physician endorsed and has helped thousands achieve and sustain their goals.

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.

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.

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.

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 haven’t been successful in resolving your internal condition with conventional or alternative medicine and searching for a more advanced treatment, this is the right place. I specialize in advanced “natural” alternative treatment for internal chronic conditions, such as autoimmune disorders, inflammations, allergies, immune issues, hormonal balance, digestive, respiratory, and gynecological conditions.
