I have struggled most of my life with conditions such as Mast Cell Activation Syndrome, Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, Dysautonomia, Fibromyalgia, allergies, and Non-Celiac gluten sensitivity. Unfortunately, none of these conditions were diagnosed until my late 30s. I became frustrated with the diagnosis-and-prescription approach of conventional medicine. With each new diagnosis came more prescriptions but no clear path toward healing.

 

To take control of my health, I studied Integrative Nutrition, Functional Nutrition, the full-body systems approach, autoimmune health, and the effects of gluten on our bodies. I earned certifications as an Integrative Nutrition Health Coach, a Functional Nutrition Counselor, a Gluten-Free Practitioner, a Lifestyle Medicine Health Coach, and a National Board-Certified Health and Wellness Coach. I applied all of this knowledge to my own health journey and worked diligently to reduce my reliance on pharmaceuticals and alleviate some of my symptoms. I discovered that health and wellness encompass more than just a proper diet and exercise routine.

 

As a result of my efforts, I no longer suffer from fibromyalgia, have reversed many food sensitivities, eliminated brain fog, and increased my energy levels. I have optimized my digestion and healed my leaky gut! Now, in my 50s, I continue to enhance my lifestyle as I navigate through menopause. As a passionate advocate for women's health, I am currently completing my training with the Integrative Women's Health Institute in menopause to empower women in perimenopause and menopause. Through education focused on optimizing health systems rather than just chasing symptoms, women will feel empowered and supported, ready to confidently embrace their menopause journey and take control of their health while fostering meaningful conversations with their healthcare providers.

As your coach, my goal is to listen to you respectfully, share valuable resources, guide you through the sometimes confusing world of wellness, help you establish health and wellness goals, and assist you in uncovering hidden symptoms and potential root causes. I will educate you on how your health issues may have arisen while providing the sacred space necessary for transformation and holding you accountable. I am excited to work with motivated clients like you who want to take control of their health. Together, we will explore issues such as unexplained food sensitivities, brain fog, bloating, joint pain, gut health, brain health, vaginal health, and the root causes of your inflammation. If you have recently been diagnosed with gut dysbiosis or a gluten-related disorder, I can help you create a comprehensive gut restoration plan. We will work together to restore gut integrity and elevate your overall health through a 100% gluten-free lifestyle—a true transformation.
