Whether you grew up listening to your mom pick apart her body, or your grandparents and aunties offering you all your favorite foods, while also commenting on your body, or scrolling through social media only to find that next diet or "wellness" influencer.

You’re wanting to reclaim your health and body through an intuitive approach. I'm here to help guide you in embracing your identity and living out your truest self.

I am a registered dietitian (RD) and a certified nutrition support clinician (CNSC) with 12 years of experience providing medical nutrition therapy.

As a Naturopath, I address the same problems that medical doctors see every day in their office. However, instead of treating a patient with medications that suppress symptoms, I work to find out what is causing the undesirable conditions. By exploring your specific symptoms and body/organ/gland conditions during your consultation, much can be learned about how your body is expressing nutritional deficiencies, the need to detoxify, weakened organ/glands, sensitivity to foods, emotional issues and more. Once this is understood it is often easy to explain how and why such negative symptoms and diseases have surfaced in the body.

I SOLVE ATHLETE PROBLEMS. I work with athletes of every age and ability, helping them improve performance through sport-specific nutrition. Doing an Ironman? Making weight for an MMA fight?

Are you a masters athlete with medical issues and multiple meds? Maybe you're a parent and your kid wants to make the varsity team by using a sketchy supplement. Or you're a coach and just don't know what to say when your athletes get dehydrated. I CAN HELP!
