In this session we will discuss your complete health history. Counselor will create a timeline for a graphical representation that will allow for client and clinician to identify factors that predispose, provoke, and contribute to pathological changes and dysfunction in the body. We work together to identify cause-effect relationships that might otherwise go unnoticed. We work from preconception to present to show the connection betweeen whole lifespan and one’s current helath

Held 5-7 days after initial session. The matrix is our #1 tool in functional nutrition counseling that allows the clinician and client to step back and assess, in order to find root causes of symptoms and diseases. This leads to answers that most other clinicians overlook because they did not take the time to see that everything in the body is interconnected. This is a living document that we will revisit in future sessions to reflect on progress.

Held 7-10 days after Matrix Session. Client and clinician will start to analyze collected data on diet, hydration, mood, and bowel habits. Clinician will review any recent lab work. After careful assessment, the counselor will help implement protocols on nutrition, supplements, herbs/superfoods, and further lab tests that may be beneficial to the client’s unique needs. The counselor will provide education on how the body works for the client to truly start to understand, “what’s going on in there” and why they are implementing the specific interventions.
