My practice focuses on healthy living. Lives are built on foundations and proper nourishment is the key building element.  I coach individuals in achieving their nutrition and health goals in one on one sessions, assist families in making their homes healthier environments for their children, provide structured diet programs, facilitate detoxifications, recommend vitamin and mineral protocols, help with meal planning and provide general nutrition education. Satisfy your palette while keeping in mind that healthful eating can be simple, convenient and a non-intimidating part of daily life.

 

I have worked with students and their families both in schools and in their homes. I have helped clients overcome eating disorders, food addictions, and understand body image issues by using intuitive eating techniques.  It is my goal to educate my clients about their body's nutrition needs and how to maintain a healthy and active lifestyle.

 

I was privileged to lead a collaborative effort that successfully implemented employee-wellness programs into corporate workplaces throughout Northern California. I have participated in creating school nutrition curriculums and was the Editor and Chief Contributor for a children’s cookbook series. I've worked with programs including Help One Child, The Fit Kids Foundation, The Children's Cancer Association, The Lucille Packard Children’s Hospital & Ronald McDonald House Charities.

 

After earning my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and Education from Dominican University, I completed a post-graduate Nutrition program at Bauman College of Holistic Nutrition. I became certified as a Sports Nutrition consultant in 2008, I’m certified as an Intuitive Eating counselor, Weight Management coach, and Preventative Medicine professional. Enzyme therapy, detoxification and the psychology of nutrition are the topics that I’m most interested in.

 

My philosophy is simple – Prevention is the top priority. Nutrition plays a major role in the management of chronic diseases, in controlling the obesity epidemic, and, most importantly, in achieving optimum health. I’m dedicated to helping people enhance their life by embracing a healthy lifestyle through nutrition education, guidance & support.
