I work with women miserable from pain, bloat and fatigue who want to get up in the morning feeling energized, have a flat stomach, and know what she eats will not have her looking for the nearest bathroom. Do you suffer from diarrhea/constipation, IBS, brain fog, chronic fatigue, depression/anxiety and/or autoimmune disease and has your doctor told you you just have 'live with it’ because all tests came back normal? The good news? You can banish bloat, clear brain fog, feel energized and reduce pain. How? By testing for food sensitivities and/or finding out if your GI tract is out of balance.

I am a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist and am devoted to helping my clients optimize their health through a body-mind integrative approach. Given all the opposing views about nutrition I can understand your confusion and help you find what is best for your unique situation. I specialize in Functional Nutrition along with Disordered Eating. I am here to help those who are hoping to improve their relationship with food and their bodies and also for those struggling with hormonal, metabolic and gut related disorders such as PCOS, metabolic syndrome, Diabetes, Cardio-Vascular Disease, Hypothyroid along with Menopausal Health.

Are you experiencing fatigue, joint pain, digestive issues or other symptoms that just don't seem to make sense or despite treatments just aren't improving? Feeling afraid or confused about your health? I specialize in addressing your concerns naturally by finding the cause of dysfunction and working with your body to find the solution. My personal mission is to empower you to understand your body and to create the ideal health you want for yourself and your family. I work with my patients as partners in achieving their health goals and am so excited to connect with you!

In my practice, I seek to treat the whole person while addressing the underlying cause of disease, not just address symptoms. My treatment plans typically include a combination of natural medicines and specific lifestyle changes designed to bring balance to every system in the body. I work with many different health issues and am particularly interested in treating those with chronic and degenerative diseases including those with digestive problems, auto-immune disease, thyroid and other endocrine imbalances, and chronic fatigue.

90% of health conditions and diseases can be prevented by proper nutrition and lifestyle modifications. Not only does management and prevention of chronic health conditions improve the quality and satisfaction of living, but it also adds years and saves money later in life. The sooner you take the steps to a healthier life, the sooner you’ll feel better, happier, more energized, and more confident about your appearance. I’m here to help you set the foundation for a more fulfilling life you can enjoy with family and friends in years to come!

I work with people of all ages, focusing on those struggling with eating disorders as well as working with people for prenatal and postnatal nutrition. There is a lot of pressure to eat a certain way and look a certain way, but everyone is unique and I work to help find what works best, and is healthiest, for you. I focus on understanding our thoughts, feelings, and actions around food and body image. I will provide you the tools you need to build healthy and sustainable habits around food and body image so that you can enjoy your life, minus restrictive thinking and behaviors.

I work with clients who have been struggling with chronic digestive problems and the conventional health care model has been unable to help them. Many of the clients I work with have removed the majority (if not all) of their favorite foods from their diet due to these chronic digestive problems. I guide clients on how to expand their diet and improve tolerance to foods again to get their quality of life back! In addition to digestive problems, I work with clients who lack awareness on how to meet their nutritional needs on a plant-based diet and also offer personalized grocery shopping tours.
