An Integrative Nutrition Health Coach is a professionally trained guide, mentor and accountability partner who empowers you and provides ongoing support and guidance as you set goals and make sustainable changes that improve your health and happiness. 

As your Health Coach, I will listen carefully to decipher your unique needs and we’ll navigate the world of contradictory nutrition and health advice together to explore what truly works for you.

I practice a whole human approach to nutrition, health and wellness, which means that I look at how all areas of your life are connected.

Does stress at your job or in your relationship(s) cause you to overeat? Does lack of sleep or low energy prevent you from exercising? Do toxic relationships keep you from focusing on yourself?

As we work together, we will look at how all parts of your life affect your health as a whole.

I work with my clients to get in touch with their body’s needs because I understand that as life happens, your needs will change, and it’s important that you learn how to navigate the adversities of life while you maintain your healthy living routine.

I want to equip you with the self-awareness to make the best decisions for yourself in any given circumstance because I believe each person is fully capable of making well-informed decisions as their own expert, not the latest magazine article or fad diet book.

Let’s define what you value most from your well-being! We’ll use these visions to motivate specific goals that bring you closer to where you want to be as you create your rich wellness lifestyle!

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 to create your custom nutrition plan.

Together, we’ll co-create your health goals within realistic time frames using actionable objectives each session so you know exactly what goal you’re working towards and at a comfortable pace.

Health coaching is a powerful vehicle for sustainable change!

Core Concepts of Health Coaching

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: relationship, career, physical activity and spirituality. I’ll introduce you to some of the healthiest foods on the planet and teach you how to find what’s healthiest for your unique body!

Primary Food

It’s easy to overlook all of the things that contribute to our sense of nourishment and fulfillment. It’s not just the food we eat that affects our health, but all of the other factors present in our daily lives. Healthy relationships, a fulfilling career, regular physical activity, and a spiritual awareness 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 living an inspired, fulfilling life.

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.

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.

Bio-IINdividuality

The concept of Bio-IINndividuality is the idea that each of us has unique food and lifestyle needs. One person’s food is another person’s poison, and that’s why fad diets tend to fail in the long run. Working on the principle of bio-individuality, I’ll support you to make positive changes that are based on your unique needs, lifestyle, preferences, and ancestral background.
