What is a Health Coach? 

As a graduate of the Institute of Integrative Nutrition, I have been trained to help others find the path to their optimal wellness. The word "nutrition" is most often associated with food. While the food on our plate plays a key role in our overall health, we don't consider food as "primary" food, but actually "secondary" food. The beauty of integrative nutrition is it helps us to find the mind-body-spirit connection. The food we eat affects our mind and spirit, our mind affects the food we choose to eat, our spirit is affected by both body and mind. All are intertwined to make us a whole being!

As your health coach, I will work along side of you helping you to discover the healthiest version of you! Health coaching is not meant to take the place of your current healthcare providers, but to work in conjunction with them. Whether you are struggling with weigh issues, diabetes, bowel issues, hormone changes, etc... together we can find the solutions that will help you begin to thrive, and not just survive!

As a certified Health Coach, I understand the frustration of feeling like there is more out there for you, but not knowing where to turn to first. That’s why my mission is simple: give my clients the wellness education, tools and resources that they need to feel happy, healthy, and capable of managing life’s pressures. Get in touch to get started!

I also have a specialization in Substance Use Recovery Health Coaching. As a certified alcohol and drug counselor (CADC-II), I am also offering substance use counseling, as a part of my health coaching specialties. I have a special passion for helping those with substance use issues, as well as the families of those struggling with loved ones with substance use issues.
