About Me

Functional nutrition seeks to promote health and vitality by supporting the body's natural ability to heal and maintain balance through personalized dietary and lifestyle interventions. It takes an individualized approach to focus on the optimal functioning of the body and its systems, rather than just addressing isolated symptoms or diseases. It emphasizes the importance of whole, nutrient-dense foods in supporting health and preventing illness. It utilizes functional testing to understand nutrient deficiencies, imbalances, and other factors that may be affecting an individual's health.

You can expect compassion and someone that will listen to you and take your symptoms seriously. We will discuss medical history, dietary habits, symptoms, concerns and lifestyle and help identify your goals. We work together to create a plan that works for your lifestyle, budget and values to lead you to a place of healing and wellness. I will encourage, as well as guide you, to make necessary changes to help you reach your fullest potential.

I am not in network with providers. Insurance companies may dictate which treatments are covered, potentially altering the care you receive. It's crucial that every patient receives the necessary care, rather than limiting treatment to what an insurance company deems acceptable. I do, however, accept HSA/FSA cards. You can use these accounts to pay for our sessions as well as for functional lab testing.

I find that when someone is starting a health journey it is best to meet every other week for a couple of months to really gain traction. It helps hold you accountable and many questions also come up in the early phase. This gives us ample opportunity to check in and get those questions answered.

It depends on what labs are done. For most blood work you can expect around 5-7 business days. For other labs like a DUTCH test, comprehensive stool panel or mycotoxin testing it can take about 14 days to get the results. Once the results are in we will contact you to schedule an appointment.

Absolutely! Send these in prior to your session and we can discuss the need for any further lab testing.

This is a comprehensive 12 week program. If you are struggling with multiple GI symptoms or we think that many of your symptoms could be GI related, this may be the path to discuss. Not only will you receive 7 sessions in 3 months, but the program provides you with a ton of resources to help you heal your gut and keep it healthy long term. There are 7 sessions total, 1 initial 2 hour session and six, 1 hour sessions.

A comprehensive lab panel and a stool test is included in the price of the program.
