My approach is to empower you to make sustainable changes for your health! That can take many forms, including developing meal planning skills, giving accountability for balanced meal choices, examining your own beliefs about food and diet, and understanding the why and how behind common diet advice. Eating should not be a chore or an obligation, but allow you to live your life to the fullest. I want you to have a kind and beneficial relationship with food. Now that’s the ideal end goal, but I recognize it can take some time to get there. If we don’t shy away from the work, I believe together we can reach that place a little sooner!

Our genetic makeup is what makes us unique and is complex in nature. Originally learned as being but a factor that is completely out of our control, epigenetic research shows otherwise. What we now know through science is that factors from our environment such as diet, physical activity, sleep and stress, actually play a large role in the expression of our genes. While we can't entirely change what we are born with, healthy habits do in fact nurture healthy genes. In a nutshell, I'm here to challenge, support and guide you in rewiring your genes and taking direct control over your life.

Your doctor may have recently told you about a new diagnosis or lab result that requires you to change the way you eat. Clients are often overwhelmed by the amount of misleading nutrition information on the internet and it can be a challenge to manage a chronic illness when you don't know where to start.

Many times, your doctor gives limited information about what to eat and does not always have the time to go into detail about what the means for your day-to-day life.
