If you are tired of fad diets or of trying the latest promising superfood or cleanse, you've come to the right place. It's time to do some detective work to find out where YOU should begin YOUR personal nutrition journey!
I'm so glad you've stopped by!
My approach to nutritional therapy is summed up in two words: investigation and communication!
I deeply enjoy getting to know my clients and helping them discover THEIR unique nutritional needs through a variety of assessments and creating customized solutions TOGETHER.
This is best accomplished through in-depth, ongoing communication linked with evidence-based nutrition research and ancestral wisdom.
We start this journey with an 1.5 hour initial meeting to gather information on your current nutritional needs and make a plan. Follow-up meetings are 45 minutes each. There are a variety of stand-alone and package options below. I also offer a FREE 20-minute Discovery Session so we can find out if this is the right fit for your needs.
Built into the cost is the time I will spend researching your unique nutritional issues because... #ocd #nutritionnerd! I like to get to the bottom of things and enjoy keeping up with current nutrition research.
This type of deep communication and detective work is the best way for me to provide you with personalized recommendations suited to your bio-individual needs.
So whether you are here because you want to learn how to eat better, resolve your digestive complaints, regain your energy, moods or focus... or even optimize your longevity, I look forward to starting this wellness journey together!

Optimal Wellness & Longevity
6 months

This program includes all features of the other nutritional therapy packages-- Foundations for Optimal Health & Optimal Digestion Reset-- plus a pantry and fridge detox/restock along with nutrition based genetic recommendations.

Who is this program for?
-
This 6-month package is designed for highly motivated clients who are concerned not only with their overall health and nutrition, but also with family history of disease and/or genetic risk factors. Perfect for those who are willing to make big changes so they can experience thriving instead of surviving as they age. Also ideal for those who have "tried everything" and haven't made the progress they desire. Together we will explore the power of epigenetics (the ability to turn genes on and off) and how you can influence your current and future wellness and longevity through targeted nutritional therapy.

"Your genes are not your destiny."
-Dr. Ben Lynch
Genetic Optimization Session
1.5-hour session to review results of your genetic analysis and see how this relates to YOUR unique nutritional needs. It can be game-changing to discover which superfoods may be working for or against your genes and how to incorporate and rotate them to your advantage. There is also the option to learn about genetic risk factors for cognitive decline, if you have a concern about this, truly want to know, and feel ready to optimize your APOE4 genes with targeted nutritional therapy.
How does it work?
-
You take a DNA test through Ancestry.com or 23andme.com (paid for by you); we can also use any past testing
-
I instruct you how to retrieve your raw data which you agree to share with me so I can run a gene analysis OR I can instruct you how to run a gene analysis and you can share the results with me
-
We discuss certain results related to nutritional therapy and use this to inform your customized protocol
Who is this for?
The genetic optimization session is ideal for clients who:
-
Eat healthy, but aren't responding well to superfoods-- like cruciferous veggies, fermented foods or other "health foods"
-
Want to know if they have genetic propensity for histamine or sulfur intolerance or other genes that influence nutrient metabolism
-
Have a family history of cognitive decline and/or know or want to learn if they have the APOE4 genetic risk factor and what they can do about it nutritionally
While not yet perfect science, nutrigenomics and epigenetics are powerful fields of study that can greatly influence the outcome of your health and longevity. Feel free to ask me any questions about this exciting opportunity!
I run and pay for your genetic analysis

Q & A
Do you accept or submit to insurance?
Nutritional therapy services are not covered by insurance carriers at this time. Unfortunately, I am not able to provide you with superbills to submit to your insurance company, but I will provide you with invoices and receipts for all services.
Do you offer payment plans?
I offer payment plans for Nutritional Therapy packages only. I realize these can be a lot to cover up front so I'm happy to offer monthly payment plans if needed. Let me know if you'd like me to set this up for you!
Do you offer discounts?
I offer discounts on Nutritional Therapy packages only. The discount is 10% off the cost of the entire package if it is paid up front.
Do you have a weight loss program?
I don't have a specific weight loss program nor do I intend to at any point, but weight loss is often an outcome of finding a nutritional therapy protocol that works for your body. The real success is best measured in restored energy and vitality!
Can we meet in person?
Currently all nutritional therapy services are virtual and online only via live Zoom sessions. This means we can meet anywhere convenient to you!
How time consuming will this be?
Nutritional therapy is tailored to YOUR needs and can be as involved or as basic as you need it to be for your lifestyle. We will work together to find out what works best for you so that you can keep it up with success!
