IT'S TIME TO HEAL
About
I help you uncover the root causes of your symptoms so you can stop guessing, start asking better questions, and take ownership of your health. Through root-cause health coaching, personalized nutrition and lifestyle strategies, education, and functional lab testing when appropriate, I help you gain the clarity needed to make informed decisions about your health. I believe lasting health begins when you understand what's happening in your body and become an informed, confident partner in your healthcare.
Discovering a Better Way
In my 50s, I pursued a lifelong dream of competing in women’s physique bodybuilding—and even earned my IFBB Pro Card. On the outside, I looked like the picture of health, but inside my body was in turmoil. Sleepless nights, thinning hair, cold extremities, debilitating joint pain, and overwhelming fatigue were daily realities. Doctors told me it was “just genetics” or part of aging, but deep down, I knew there had to be more to the story. What I later discovered was that my “toxic load” and hormonal imbalances—not my genes—were driving my symptoms.
Curiosity Changed Everything
For most of my life, I considered myself healthy. Yet every so often, I encountered a health challenge that reminded me how important it is to be an active participant in my own care. From debilitating migraines and a life-threatening pregnancy complication to a thyroid disorder that was recognized only because one physician noticed what others had missed; I often left appointments with more questions than answers. Sometimes the most important step isn't finding a different answer, it's learning to ask a better question.
Thinking Differently About Health
My experiences led me to realize that better health isn't just about managing symptoms, it's about asking the right questions and understanding the factors contributing to them. After more than 25 years working within the healthcare system, I chose to become a Certified Integrative Health Practitioner to expand my understanding of root-cause health, personalized nutrition, lifestyle medicine, and functional lab testing. That education broadened my perspective and reinforced what I had learned through experience: lasting health is built when knowledgeable healthcare professionals and informed, engaged patients work together.
Helping Others Take Agency
Those experiences shaped the philosophy that guides my work today. I believe the best health outcomes are achieved when knowledgeable healthcare professionals and informed, engaged patients work together. My mission is to help you gain a deeper understanding of your body, ask thoughtful questions, and make informed decisions with confidence so you can build a foundation for lasting health.
