Want to Hear My Story?

I did not start my career with a focus on functional medicine health coaching. In fact, I've worked as a Speech Language Pathologist helping adults rehabilitate from various diagnoses such as stroke, traumatic brain injury, cancer, and much more. I've always had a passion to connect with people on a deeper level and help them achieve their goals.

​

I often ask myself, how could someone who had their own struggles with chronic pain, stress, self criticism and a history of poor eating habits help others?

​

Well, sometimes it takes another person to understand what it feels like to struggle, to learn how to give yourself grace and forgiveness, and to find what motivates you. 

​

When I started to turn into a critical mother, crabby spouse, and utilized poor coping strategies to manage my pain, I knew I needed a change.  The picture of my family here displays my biggest motivator and support in adapting to a new lifestyle. 

​

As we walk through different stages of life, it can be complicated and we are often pulled in many different directions. Mom, spouse, co-worker, caregiver, etc. Having someone who can listen, provide empathy, kindness and non-judgment is essential.

This is where I can help.
