Simply put, NTPs take a root-cause, nutrient-centered approach to overcoming symptoms. We're essentially health detectives and symptom solvers.

We utilize nutrient-dense, properly-prepared whole foods, lifestyle adjustments, stress management, and targeted supplementation to optimize your health.

Our focus is on identifying the underlying reasons for your symptoms and working to address them, rather than merely masking them with a medication or supplement.

Nutritional Therapy is tailored to fit your unique needs; it's not a one-size-fits-all solution. This isn’t about following the latest diet trend or meal plan—it’s about making positive, lasting lifestyle changes.

NTPs identify the root cause and the underlying reasons for your symptoms, then create a personalized protocol tailored to your unique needs. We don’t just place a temporary bandage on your symptoms; we look beneath to address the core issues and support your body’s natural healing process.

My approach involves assessing your therapeutic nutrient needs by analyzing more than 300 symptoms, your dietary intake, medications (which can deplete essential nutrients), and your overall health concerns and goals.

What sets me apart is my emphasis on lifestyle and nutrition changes over fad diets and supplements. Rather than recommending a specific supplement for your symptoms, which often only masks the issue rather than addressing its cause, I work to uncover and address the underlying factors contributing to your symptoms.

Working with me will enhance your nutrition expertise and equip you with a variety of natural healing techniques. You’ll learn to simplify your food choices, properly fuel your body, use food as medicine, and adopt lasting habits for sustained health. My goal is to provide you with the knowledge, tools, and confidence needed to take charge of your health and continue thriving even after our work together.

I am not a doctor. Therefore, I do not diagnose or treat any condition or disease. I use Nutritional Therapy to help bring the body back into balance which can result in many benefits. Digestive and hormonal issues are my specialty, but I believe that everyone can benefit from implementing the foundations of Nutritional Therapy.

Here are some of the symptoms Nutritional Therapy can help with:

• IBS, constipation, diarrhea — you should have at least 1 healthy poop per day!

• uncomfortable bloating

• heartburn, acid reflux

• excessive, foul gas

• nausea

• food sensitivities — yes, these are a symptom

• frequent food cravings — yes, this is a symptom too

• low energy and chronic fatigue

• feeling “hangry," shaky, or jittery if meals are missed or delayed

• migraines and frequent headaches

• hair loss

• eczema, dry skin, acne, and other skin issues

• trouble sleeping, waking up in the middle of the night “to pee”, waking up tired, relying on caffeine to make it through the day

• feeling dizzy or lightheaded, seeing stars, known to be a fainter

• feeling spacey, unreal, groggy, anxious, or depressed

• PMS, PCOS, painful and/or irregular periods, and other hormonal imbalances — yeah, not normal

NUTRITION / WHAT TO EAT

Our approach centers on consuming bio-available, nutrient-dense, properly prepared whole foods to maximize nutrient intake. The origin of your food is key, as we’ve drifted from the practice of eating simple, real, and nutrient-packed foods.

DIGESTION / YOU AREN'T WHAT YOU EAT

You aren't necessarily what you eat; you are what you absorb. Stomach acid is a valuable ally, not an adversary. The gut is pivotal to your body's health, with the well-being of all systems being closely tied to its proper functioning.

BLOOD SUGAR BALANCE / HOW + WHEN TO EAT

This isn't only something for diabetics to be concerned about. Combining and timing your food properly can change your life. This is key to managing stress, optimizing sleep, increasing energy, and balancing hormones.

LIFESTYLE / IT'S NOT JUST WHAT YOU EAT

Holistic nutrition is beyond food. You are the result of your habits. I'm talking about optimizing your routines, stress management, sunlight exposure, mental health, exercise, and lowering your toxic burden through household product swaps.

I will absolutely not judge you, and I will never make you do anything. You have the freedom to make your own decisions. I'll meet you exactly where you are. It's crucial that you feel comfortable being completely honest with me so I can support you. I am here to help guide you and collaborate with you. I am not a dictator.

If we discover that foods you love are significantly contributing to your symptoms, we may need to temporarily eliminate them. Once we restore balance, we can work on reintroducing those foods. Additionally, there are often recipe alternatives that let you enjoy your favorites without any unwanted effects.

Absolutely not. I do not believe you can truly be healthy on a restrictive diet. I believe we need a variety of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins from both plant and animal foods for optimal health. I also believe breakfast is the most important meal of the day, especially for hormone health.

If you have a history of diets like these, I can help you transition from them to a nutrient-dense, properly-prepared, whole-food way of eating that I teach.

Results take commitment. It usually takes about 3 months to see significant progress.

I also need to work with you for at least 3 months in order to properly equip you with the tools and resources you need to be savvy about your health even after working with me.

Month-to-month options are available after completing the 3-month program.

As an NTP, I can order functional labs. However, I am currently in training to learn how to use and interpret labs more effectively.

I plan to offer functional lab testing beginning in Spring/Summer 2025 to those who have completed the 3-month foundational package but would like additional support.

No, my services are not covered by insurance.

I have made my services very affordable compared to other NTPs and holistic practitioners.

There’s A LOT of behind-the-scenes work that you don't see!

I believe in transparency to build trust, so I’m always happy to provide a detailed breakdown of the time spent on various elements of your therapy if you’d like to understand the fees and investment better.

Additionally, I offer a payment plan for 3-month programs to make the cost more manageable.

My focus is always on utilizing food and lifestyle changes first. Based on the level of nourishment, the health symptoms, and your preferences, I will suggest specific supplements that can fill in nutritional gaps and be especially beneficial for you.

However, you do not have to do anything. You have the freedom to choose. I try to avoid recommending and using too many supplements because I don't believe our bodies should be dependent on a pill to be healthy.
