A HOLISTIC APPROACH TO WELLNESS
As a Registered Nurse and Marriage and Family Therapist with over twenty-five years of experience in the health care industry, I have long believed in a holistic approach to wellness. I assist my clients to identify and achieve lifestyle changes that will enable them to balance and integrate their physical, mental, and spiritual aspects.

During my career as an RN I have seen both the positive and negative results of modern medicine first hand. I realized early on in my career that nutrition is the foundation of health. Though I was raised by a nutritionally savvy mother I neglected my health during my teens and early adulthood. I eventually began to experience increasing signs and symptoms of allergies and chemical sensitivities.

I read many books and articles on health and diet. This resulted in a hit-or-miss approach towards achieving my goal of optimal health. I also became interested in alternative and complementary medicine. Again I applied a hit-or-miss approach and experienced some very exciting results along with some negligible results.

My search resulted in discovering and enrolling in an educational program which taught me not only how to build a solid nutritional foundation, but also the concept of biochemical individuality, that each person’s needs are unique. I was intrigued by this holistic view point. Utilizing this information I soon became aware of positive changes in my overall health along with that of my early clients.

As a certified nutritional therapy practitioner working under the auspices of the Nutritional Therapy Association, I am skilled in assisting and supporting clients to build a solid nutritional foundation while addressing their biochemical individuality.

I also bring to my practice a strong background in nursing and mental health therapy.
