Health Professionals in Washington

"One cannot think well, love well, sleep well, if one has not dined well." -Virginia Woolf. Food is an integral part of our lives and has the power to transform our mood, appearance and self worth. I work with my clients on their relationship with food to achieve the best version of themselves through balanced nutrition. I use a personalized approach to address specific nutritional needs that truly result in success. My ideal client may be confused about nutrition, struggle with not knowing what to eat to heal their body, experience weight instability or obsess over food choices.

I help people feel energetic and REVVed to navigate their health concerns. Food is enjoyment AND is extremely powerful when it comes to lowering risk of chronic diseases. I’ve counseled thousands of individuals and families with diverse health goals over the past 13 years as a corporate nutritionist at tech companies. My approach is informed by by Ellyn Satter, who developed the competent eating model and by Evelyn Tribole and Elyse Resch, who created the intuitive eating framework. For eating disorder recovery, I practice a family-based therapy (FBT) informed approach. For all of my clients, I treat you with compassion and respect.

I have a growing practice of all ages. I enjoy working with people to unravel the symptoms they are experiencing. I've found that often the symptoms we are experiencing aren't always directly related to the area in the body with the dysfunction. Sometimes we have to treat several different parts of the body in order to treat our symptoms in other areas. The modalities I use not only work to treat the cause of the problem, but they also help the body to heal itself, which are two of the foundational principles of naturopathic medicine.

I specialize in treating pain and neurological conditions. Whether your pain is due to an orthopedic, muscular, or neurological condition - acupuncture may be an effective option. I practice evidence-based acupuncture. That means my approach is based in the latest biomedical science and research. Acupuncture is a sophisticated procedure with measurable effects on the central nervous system as well as local connective tissues. I have 10 years of clinical experience and am involved in research. So, you can rest assured I will bring the very best of modern science and acupuncture to bear on your condition.

As someone who has struggled with many health issues, I became a naturopathic doctor to help patients better understand their bodies and what it needs to heal. I follow the therapeutic order and work with you where you’re at. The goal is to get you back to yourself.

My ideal patient is anyone who is looking to optimize their overall health, slow their aging and live up to their full potential. My goal as a practitioner is to treat each individual as a whole person, and not just a list of symptoms. As a society, medicine has broken up people into different parts and systems, all treated by doctors with different specialities. In practice, I truly work to see the whole picture and how all of these systems are interconnected producing an individual's current health concerns. I work with each patient to find the root cause of their illness and treat this cause.

Everyone deserves peace with food and their body and I have hope that it is possible for you. I enjoy working with the LGBTQ+ community, with a special interest in transgender and gender-affirming care. As a member of the LGBTQ+ community myself, I am thoughtful about the intersectionality between this community, eating disorders, and body image concerns. I understand the complex relationships we have with our bodies and strive to help others untangle the different systems of oppression and societal factors that play a role in how we see ourselves.

Dr. Heidi Codino (she/her/hers) has completed extra trainings in LGBTQ+ healthcare as well as gender affirming care. “Feeling that your presenting features match your identity is very important to your physical, emotional, and mental health”.
