Meet Our Functional Medicine Practitioners
All of Our Practitioners are Certified by the School Applied Functional Medicine. Certification means that they have gone through rigorous training to pass a series of tests with over 600+ clinical hours and 3 years of training, and will continue to be recertified every three years to continue to be on the edge of science when it comes to healing in the functional medicine world.
Empowering You to Take Control of Your Health
My goal is to guide my clients on an exciting journey to optimal health and vitality. Healing should be an educational and uplifting adventure, filled with interesting ways of moving your body, mind and spirit towards whole-being wellness.
Health and Wellness has been a lifelong passion for me starting with my first job as a fitness trainer at age 17. After 40+ years of experience in the field, I have a broad understanding of many modalities of healing, and how lifestyle, nutrition, and mindset play pivotal roles in our overall health. I have held multiple certifications in integrative wellness practices including Certified Functional Medicine Practitioner, Strength and Conditioning Coach, Mind Body Fitness Coach as well as master level college coursework in nutrition and wellness approaches. I continue taking seminars and classes in alternative healing modalities such as herbal medicines, Ayervedics, Homeopathics, sound healing, breathwork, and biomagnetism to name a few. I also hold an MA in Cultural Anthropology and a BS in Finance and am currently interested in bio-medical anthropology, naturalist and ethnobotany training and in teaching people to grow food forests in their own yards.
Discover The Path to Whole-Being Wellness
After years of study in Nutrition and Kinesiology she found herself unsatisfied with the knowledge she had acquired. Through years at university, yoga training, and her own intuition she knew there had to be more for people on their wellness journey. She set out to honor the whole journey and not a dissected version and found Functional Medicine.
I have worked with many clients over the years and love the partnership that’s created while working with a client to support their wellness goals. I’m committed to supporting women and womens health initiatives including founding FoodAfter40, an online community designed to support women with holistic education, inspiration and empowerment toward a healthier happier life. I study herbal medicine and am working toward my RH accreditaion through the AHG. I love science and research, hiking and travel, my clients and esteemed collegues, cooking, foraging for medicinal plants, and good wine. I am passionate about supporting people in transcending their diagnosis (or sometimes, their lack of definitive diagnosis). I work with increasingly complicated cases and if I’m tossing and turning at 3 a.m., it’s because I’m busy putting the puzzle pieces together on their behalf. I believe in the art AND science of health coaching with functional medicine as the foundation of my approach. The deep privledge I have in supporting my clients is the inspiration, the fuel, to continue growing my expertise in this field. I am a certified applied functional medicine practitioner and health coach and have worked in the wellness field since 2009.
