Nutritional support for body, mind and spirit

When was the last time you talked with someone about your health and received the personal attention you deserve? As a health counselor, I am here to create a supportive environment while we explore what really works for you.

The initial consultation is free of charge. During this time, we will discuss your unique situation in depth and determine how I can help you reach your goals. This program works to improve your overall physical health and well-being. Together, we will explore how to overcome the obstacles that stand in your way to feeling happy, healthy and fulfilled.

You Will…

My Approach

A holistic approach
I practice a holistic approach to nutrition, which means that I look at how all areas of your life are connected. Does stress at your job or in your relationship cause you to overeat? Does lack of sleep or low energy prevent you from exercising? As we work together, we look at how all parts of your life affect the whole.

No one plan works for everyone
The concept of bio-individuality is that each person has their own nutritional needs. So, when the experts say, “dairy is good for you” or “fat is unhealthy,” it’s too much of a generalization. One person’s food is another person’s poison, and that’s why fad diets don’t work in the long run. By taking a holistic look at your life and body, I will determine your ideal dietary plan.

Everything is food
Healthy relationships, a fulfilling career, regular physical activity and a spiritual practice are essential forms of nourishment. The Institute for Integrative Nutrition calls these Primary Foods™*. When these are balanced, what you eat becomes secondary.

Integrative Nutrition Pyramid™
The Integrative Nutrition pyramid depicts a balanced approach to nutrition: more high-quality, organic vegetables, fruits, complex carbohydrates, protein and water; less meat, milk, sugar and artificial food. The pyramid is surrounded with the primary food circle, the parts of life that satisfy our hunger for living and create a balanced life.

Mission
Integrative Nutrition’s mission is to play a crucial role in improving health and happiness in America, and through that process, create a ripple effect that transforms the world.

*These concepts were developed by the Institute for Integrative Nutrition
