You don’t need to feel like this forever.

I know because I’ve been there myself. It took being diagnosed with an autoimmune disorder myself at age 17 [read about my story here and here] for me to really start to delve into my own healing journey. I was grateful for doctors and conventional medicine during that time, but was frustrated that it still left me feeling deficient in many areas of my life. I was exhausted, had digestive issues, and suffered from intermittent fevers, aches and pains. 

I felt stuck, and was sick of blindly taking medications as "bandaids" for a larger, underlying issue.  I felt lost working with health care professionals who, despite their best intentions, didn't listen or understand what I was really going through. I was so frustrated by all the conflicting advice and was desperately searching for what was best for me.  I wanted my active, productive life back. 

After years of confusion and suffering I was finally able to take control of my life by becoming my own advocate, being mindful of what food I put into my body, rewiring my nervous system, and learning my own disease triggers and how to reduce flare-ups.  

After my own experience with chronic autoimmune disease, I became a Registered Nurse to help people heal. Working in the conventional medical system I saw how it was supportive in acute scenarios, but was not set up to get to the root cause of bigger, underlying issues and allows many of us to fall through the cracks. I became a Functional Nutrition Practitioner, started my own practice and over the last decade in healthcare have had the honor of working with hundreds of individuals to take control of their health and uncover their body’s innate healing potential.

Because of my deep personal experience with healing I bring a human approach to my work meaning I meet you where you are at, I honor your unique needs, and work to create a secure and steady container for you to heal within. When we work together you can’t fail.

In my own journey with chronic health issues I’ve had many experiences where I didn’t feel seen, heard, or valued for my own knowledge of my body. It’s because of this that I approach my work in a client-centered approach with you and your needs front and center. I’m here to look you in the eye, listen to your story, meet you where you are at, get curious together, and move towards the transformational results you desire. 

I’ve been in the healthcare field for 12+ years and over this time have honed the skills, depth and expertise it takes to support you in truly finding your own unique path to health. If you want to finally get a handle on your health, it would be my honor to support you.
