Are you frustrated with mental health or GI symptoms that don't seem to get better, no matter what you do? Exhausted by constantly feeling like crap? Doubtful you have the bandwidth to actually DO anything to feel better? You are my favorite type of person to work with!
As a nutritionist, I specialize in supporting people with conditions that make life tough, and use gentle nutrition and a dose of humor to help my clients feel empowered.
How? I get it, personally. It isn't a random occurrence that I specialize in mental health and GI nutrition. I got here honestly, through my own experiences with life-long anxiety and a more recent IBD diagnosis. In fact, my diagnosis led me to go back to school to become a nutrition pro - just three months after my IBD diagnosis I started a graduate program in nutrition and integrative health.
I'm here for the people that are hurting, and desperately want to feel better, but haven't a clue how to get there.
As co-founder and a licensed nutritionist at Nutrition Hive, I help my clients feel at home in their bodies, and get back to feeling good. The only place a cookie cutter approach works is in the kitchen - with actual cookies. When I work with humans, I’m a strong believer in a customized approach to fit your needs and goals.
I am also a co-founder and supervisor at Clinician's Incubator, where I help postgraduate CNS candidates learn the art and science of personalized nutrition practice. I also provide case consultations to CNSs and RDs who would like a second opinion on their client's labs and treatment protocols.
I love dogs, books, and tea, as well as a good joke and a well placed swear word. Find me on Facebook @nutritionhive, and on Instagram @nutritionhive.health.
