Do you have a health challenge that you've struggled to overcome...even with medical help? Sometimes it seems like achieving great digestion, hormone balance, and high energy may be impossible to achieve...and that prospect can be daunting. As a Dietitian Nutritionist with additional expertise in Functional Medicine, I approach healthcare differently. I find and address root causes, provide individualized, realistic plans, and support you along your journey. The result is healthcare actually makes you healthier.

If you struggle with a complicated relationship with food—whether through restriction, bingeing, or constant stress about eating—you may feel frustrated and overwhelmed. For more than 20 years, I’ve walked alongside people just like you who want freedom from food rules, guilt, and shame. What you really want is peace: to feel confident eating without second-guessing, to trust your body, and to focus on living your life rather than battling your plate. Your goal may be better health, but also to rebuild confidence, self-compassion, and balance in a way that lasts.

A recent study showed that the average American has gained 16 pounds during COVID. With each unhealthy increase in BMI you are likely not feeling your best and are putting yourself at risk for chronic diseases. If you are having trouble keeping a healthy weight and unsure of what to eat? Maybe you feel like you are doing everything right, but still aren't seeing the results you want. If you have tried "diets" but find yourself frustrated, let's try a different approach.

Acupuncture is for someone who is open to receiving treatment and is committed to their personal health and growth. It is important that a person who receives acupuncture is willing to put the time and effort into healing his or her body through alternative medicine. Acupuncture has amazing healing properties and takes equal efforts on both the acupuncturist’s and the client’s part to maximize treatment success. I treat a wide variety of health issues such as pain, anxiety, infertility, food sensitivities, and seasonal allergies. I also specialize in pediatric health issues for infants to adolescents.

I empower my patients to take control of their health and prevent or reverse lifestyle related conditions such as pre-diabetes, diabetes, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, and others. My focus is on sustainable lifestyle changes rather than diets or temporary solutions-- I help my patients find ways to make healthy improvements that work for them for the long term. I love food, so I always make sure my patients are also "eating happy" when they're eating healthy. I enjoy talking about cooking ideas, shopping tips, and ways to be creative in the kitchen.

As a dietitian and a mom of four, I understand the challenge of juggling it all—busy schedules, family meals, and finding balance in the chaos. That’s why I am passionate about making nutrition both practical and powerful. Food isn’t just fuel—it’s a tool for longevity, energy, and well-being. Whether it’s stabilizing blood sugar, supporting hormonal health, or creating high-protein, low-calorie meals that fit a hectic lifestyle, my goal is to help folks make smart, informed choices that work in real life.

Your body wants to heal itself. It requires help from a professional to find the source of the pain to get on the path to healing. Experience, education and professionalism is what I look for in a massage therapist because those are my strengths. I have had the benefit of an extensive education and enough experience with clients to know what techniques work best. I will listen to your concerns and preferences and work hard to help you get out of pain or just help you to relax and feel better in your own body. Conditions like sciatica, back and neck pain and I.T. band syndrome heal more quickly if you come in for treatment ASAP.
