My journey into functional medicine began with the realization that nutrition is more than just fuel—it’s a powerful tool that influences every aspect of our well-being. Through advanced testing, such as micronutrient analysis, food allergies and sensitivities, hormone panels, gene variants, and gut microbiome assessments, I help uncover imbalances and provide targeted interventions tailored to each individual’s unique needs.
Having over 30 years of experience in dietary counseling has given me the knowledge to address many health related issues and set clients back on track to health and wellness.

I specialize in digestive disorders, including Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO), Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), microbiome restoration, gas and bloating, diarrhea, constipation, Candida overgrowth, bacterial overgrowth, parasites, food sensitivities, GERD, and swallowing disorders.
I also have a particular interest in solving complex or unusual health challenges that have not responded to conventional approaches. Many of my patients come to me after seeing multiple providers without finding answers, and helping those "mystery cases" is one of the most rewarding aspects of my practice.
