Applied Functional Medicine Coach
The School of Applied Functional Medicine is an intensive program that emphasizes the interconnectedness of the human body using functional medicine science. Rather than solely focusing on individual systems in the body, we are taught to see how each system in the body impacts others. These deep dive semester courses leverage functional medicine lab tests, detailed instruction and myth-busting about physiology, nutrients, dysfunction, conventional treatment, remedies, contributing factors, and exacerbating issues along with practical tips. The result is a far deeper understanding of the human body, what can go wrong and detailed steps to return clients to not just good health, but optimal health!
Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner
As a Certified Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner (FDN-P) I am trained to use functional lab testing to identify malfunctions and healing opportunities within energy production, hormones, digestion, detoxification, and the nervous system. While I don’t diagnose, treat or cure clients, I help them adopt a self-care model that is centered on finding the root cause rather than focusing on symptoms. Healing for clients focuses on drugless protocols and lifestyle changes that strengthen all the systems in their body and educates them on how to maintain overall health, vitality, and balance.
Integrative Holistic Health Coach
I studied at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition where I learned innovative coaching methods, practical lifestyle management techniques, and over 150 dietary theories; everything from Ayurveda, gluten-free, and Paleo, to raw, vegan, and macrobiotics, and everything in between. I know that everybody is different and there is no one size fit all diet or path to health. Instead, I work with you to determine the best plan for your body, lifestyle, and personal health goals.
Drawing on my expertise, I work with clients like you to help make lifestyle changes and choose health-promoting ways that produce real and lasting results. You will develop a deeper understanding of food and lifestyle choices that work best for you, improving your energy, balance, health, and happiness. Each session will leave you feeling inspired and motivated. We will talk about things beyond food, seeking to bring balance to important elements of your life such as love and relationship as well as career and personal interests. I will personally and carefully guide you to make simple, small changes that transform your life.
