As a functional nutrition counselor we assess diet and lifestyle, track, recommend, and repeat. We support clients in understanding their body, making diet and lifestyle changes to support their goals, make connections between their actions and outcomes, work alongside their healthcare team to be an advocate for them. We empower individuals to stay curious about what is going on in their body. We stay patient-centered by focusing on the WHO rather than on the WHAT because no two people are alike despite coming to us with similar diagnoses from medical providers. We do NOT diagnose, prescribe, or treat.

No. We build a bridge between what’s going on with the doctor and what’s going on at home with their food, nutrition, hydration, movement, and personal lifestyle practices. Our primary role is an educator to help client's make the connection between their daily habits and what kinds of symptoms they may be experiencing. We can teach them how to shop at the farmer’s market, how to grow nutritious food in their garden, and how to cook nutritious but fast food for busy family meals that everyone can enjoy! We do NOT diagnose, prescribe or treat.

We focus on general education on body systems, connections, healthy eating, and lifestyle modifications. Registered Dietitians' are able to create therapeutic plans for specific disease diagnosis. We do NOT diagnose or prescribe.

No. We do not recommend you try to bill insurance. Trying to submit your bill to insurance to cover your functional nutrition counseling could end up costing you money if claims are denied. Typically, only an accredited Registered Dietician is recognized by U.S Government as performing services that are eligible for reimbursement under current healthcare laws.
