My Philosophy

Achieving good health should be a fun and joyous experience as one learns more and more delicious foods to eat and enjoy, opening up ones’ palate and diet for pleasure.

As a nutrition therapist, I believe that the body is often innately able to heal itself when given the proper nutrition from nutrient dense whole foods. Genuine healing takes time and commitment and is not a quick fix. By adding more food choices to your diet you naturally eliminate the craving for unhealthy foods. Using whole, organic non- GMO foods is our best medicine. I believe that health is a process, and a life-long goal that is achieved with balance. Often there is a need for targeted, quality nutritional supplements to achieve optimum health. There are many reasons for this such as the lack of nutrients in our food today, along with long term nutrient deficiencies such as Celiac Disease, diabetes, IBS, Crohn’s Disease, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, and Osteoporosis. I offer a strong knowledge of how to use professional grade supplementation successfully tailored to the individual.

If you are uncertain what you need to get on track with your health goals, let me assist you. Together we can assess where you are, where you would like to go, and then how you can get there realistically, step by step. I am happy to work with your primary care physician, providing session notes as requested. Often our primary care physicians do not have the time to get to know us and our entire history. This can be valuable information to an M.D. who is open to nutritional support for their patients.
