Meet Your Integrative & Functional NutrItion Dietitian
Mind-body connection integrating lifestyle changes and nervous system regulation tools to create a holistic plan for you.
Personalized nutrition tailored to your specific needs, lifestyle, and health goals.
Comprehensive medical symptoms questionnaire to help connect the dots internally and reach root cause solutions.
Food as medicine approach to help support your body's capacity to heal and thrive.
Our approach goes beyond creating meal plans and calorie counting; Our focus is on addressing you, the entire person, not just an isolated set of symptoms. We believe optimal health involves looking at the body from a holistic point of view and addressing health issues from their root cause. That includes assessing nutrition intake, conventional + functional labs, stress, sleep, movement/exercise, nervous system health, genetics (nutrigenomics/epigenetics), hormones, and the gut microbiome.
