My Approach

I practice a holistic approach to health and wellness

This 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?  Are we making time to even allow self care in our lives? Completing a Health History will slowly bring things to light, and identify the areas of concern that you are having around your health.  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 life happens and your needs will change. I want to equip you with the tools and techniques to nourish yourself and your family. Getting back into the kitchen is a great way to start and discover that healthy food can taste good.  When we create nutrient dense meals, and make better choices, and even practice a little discipline, it can be very inspiring and motivating.

Sometimes we all need a coach to show us around the kitchen and educate us on all the dietary regimens that are available.   Cooking food for your self and love ones is a labor of love so to speak.  And to be grateful for the food your eating, aware of where it came from, and develop a mind body connection.  Having awareness of what you ingest.  Quality not Quantity is a term I like to remember, because it reminds me to slow down, be mindful and savor food as well as life.  One meal at a time. One bite at a time.  Conscious eating.  Over time you will see the benefits of good nutrition and be able to make better choices for yourself and your loved ones.  Develop self-awareness to make the best decisions for yourself in any given circumstance. 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.

Each time we meet my goal is to leave you feeling a bit more inspired about home cooking. While also educating you on food labels and ingredients. The benefits of prevention instead of prescription.  The practice of Primary and Secondary foods, and what it really means to nourish your body, from the inside and out.  If we work further together with additional sessions, we can identify eating habits and cravings.   And further down the road create a road map that coincides with health goals for a deeper understanding about our decisions on and off the plate.

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 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’ll co-create your health goals within reasonable time frames and actionable objectives so you know exactly what you’re working toward.  Below are the concepts I believe in.
