My Mission
I am passionate about helping others reclaim their health so they can live the life they want, without limitation. With the right support, your body can come into greater balance and you can experience more energy and vibrancy in your health than you ever thought possible.
My goal is to educate and empower each of my clients to implement simple, sustainable solutions that make a lasting impact on their health. We will work together to discover the root causes of why you are not feeling well and then create a roadmap to get you feeling better again.
I believe in the saying “little hinges swing big doors.” It is the small changes we make every day that can create a huge improvement in our health and well-being. I will teach you how to nourish your body with the right foods and lifestyle choices to achieve and support optimal health.
When you give your body what it needs to thrive, it has an amazing capacity to heal itself. My coaching is aimed at helping you take steps to find what works for your body to create healthy digestion and metabolism, hormonal balance, calmer, clearer moods, and vibrant energy so you can feel your best physically and emotionally.
How my journey began
My interest in holistic solutions to health and wellness was borne out of my own health challenges. I had a triggering event when I contracted an antibiotic resistant staph infection in the hospital when my son was born. I was on antibiotics for months and it wiped out my immune system. I spent the next several years struggling with a host of issues - chronic infections, insomnia, joint pain, digestive issues, food sensitivities, environmental allergies, depression/anxiety, brain fog, and extreme fatigue. I saw doctor after doctor, but they could not give me any answers, or offer any solutions. In fact, they told me it was “normal” to feel that fatigued as a new mother. it wasn’t normal. They had no idea why I couldn’t sleep or why I was sick all the time and had suddenly become allergic to everything. I was frustrated and losing hope. In order to cope with my situation, I made my life as small as possible, but I had a lot of mom-guilt because I was not able to show up the way I wanted to for my family. My symptoms continued to get worse.
Then I was diagnosed with cancer at the age of 41. It was a turning point that made it clear that I needed to find a completely different approach to my health. I wanted to find the root cause of ALL my symptoms—and fix it. So, I set out to educate myself about nutrition and holistic methods to rebuild my health. What I learned was so life-changing that ultimately, I immersed myself in school to became a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner so I could help others reclaim their health, too.
I went on to train as a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner and become certified to use functional lab testing as a tool to help uncover root causes. I took a deep dive into gut healing and balancing the immune system and discovered the importance of taking the stress load off the body so it can heal. Not just mental and emotional stress, but internal stressors like hidden infections, food sensitivities, and toxic load.
Food and lifestyle are powerful tools for healing the body, and both have played a significant role in my journey back to health. The other pieces of the puzzle came by learning energetic practices to give my body the energy it needed to detoxify and heal itself. This proved to be so powerful that I also became a certified NES Health practitioner and an advanced MBSR™ Practitioner in order to help clients release emotional and energetic blocks to enhance healing.
By applying the tools that I have learned, I have been able to completely rebuild my gut, heal my immune system, shake the depression, sleep through the night, reclaim my energy, and get my life back! I help my clients do the very same thing. I believe in educating and empowering my clients to successfully navigate their healing journey so they can live the lives they want to lead.
Each person has a unique path to wellness based on their individual history, physiology and lifestyle. No single method works the same for everyone because we are all wonderfully unique. I will guide you in taking the steps that best support your personal health and happiness. Together, we will focus on making sustainable changes that will enable you to live a happy, healthy life.
