My Approach

I practice a holistic approach to health and wellness. I look at how all areas of your life are connected and affect your health as a whole.

I want to equip you with the self-awareness to make the best decisions for yourself in any given circumstance.

We will define what you value most from your well-being. We will use these visions to motivate specific goals that bring you closer to where you want to be. As your coach, I will not dictate a diet for you, but together we will explore why some foods make you feel better than others and how to strategically use that feedback. Together we will co-create your health goals within reasonable time frames and actionable objectives.

Here are some concepts that we will explore during our work together:

Integrative Nutrition Plate

The Integrative Nutrition Plate emphasizes the importance of local and organic produce, whole grains, high-quality proteins, plant-based fats, and water. It shows you how a plate should appear at mealtime and emphasizes the importance of proportions and portion size. To complete the picture, the plate is surrounded with lifestyle factors that create optimal health such as relationship, career, and physical activity. I’ll introduce you to some of the healthiest foods and teach you how to find what is healthiest for your unique body!

Primary Food

It’s not just the food we eat that affects our health and our daily lives. Healthy relationships, a fulfilling career, and regular physical activity, are essential forms of nourishment. When these primary foods are balanced, what you eat becomes secondary. I will support you in achieving all of your goals, from eating the right foods for your body to finding creative ways to better deal with daily stress.

Deconstructing Cravings

Cravings play a critical role in understanding what your body needs and shouldn’t be ignored. When you learn how to deconstruct your cravings and understand what they’re really telling you, you will be able to reclaim a sense of balance and harmony.

Crowding Out

Many nutrition experts give their clients a list of foods to avoid and foods to eat, which explains why so many people are turned off by nutrition. My approach is different – by eating and drinking foods that are good for you, you will naturally have less room and desire for unhealthy foods. Simply put, you will crowd out the unhealthy food in your diet. This takes a little practice to make happen, but I will support you along the way.
