My Philosophy
As a Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) and Nutritional Therapy Practitioner (NTP) I believe there is no “one size fits all” approach to achieve greater mental well-being and health. Every person has a unique biological, psychological and social story that impacts their well-being every day. As a social worker and NTP I understand this bio-individuality and support each person to restore their body and mind to greater balance as they tap into their own abilities to find greater wellness.
To do this, I am trained in therapeutic techniques like Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. I am also trained in a science-based, holistic dietary and lifestyle approach that makes a properly prepared, nutrient-dense, whole foods diet paired with a balanced lifestyle part of our work as needed or as interest requires.
As someone who has undergone a healing journey myself I know how lonely and hard it can be to find your way forward. So, let’s find wellness together!
My Pillars for Health
Whole Foods & Nutrient Density
Eat a variety of fruits, vegetables, fats and proteins that are minimally processed and provide the most nutrient density.
Mental Health
Understand your own story, know your triggers, get to know yourself on a deeper level in order to find change, relief and live a more aligned life.
Well Balanced Lifestyle
Find spaces in life to slow down and be mindful; cultivate joy and peace in day to day living.

FAQ
What is a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner (NTP)?
An NTP empowers others to become knowledgeable and responsible for their own health. They use nutrition and lifestyle strategies to support clients to develop and work towards their own health goals. NTP’s evaluate nutritional needs and provide bio-individual dietary and lifestyle recommendations to support the body towards health and balance.
How is working with an NTP different?
NTP’s meet clients where they are at and never enter into a client relationship with a preconcieved idea of what is best for that person. NTP’s focus on symptoms associated with nutrient needs and functional imbalances in the body. NTP’s do NOT treat diesease, but help clients have a better experience amidst the context of a disease.
What can’t an NTP do?
NTP’s do NOT practice medical nutrition or dietetics. NTP’s do NOT diagnose or treat disease. NTP’s do NOT act as a substitute for doctors or other licensed healthcare providers.
What are the Nutritional Foundations?
The nutritional foundations are what NTP’s are scientifically trained in to support clients: Properly Prepared, Nutrient Dense, Whole Foods Diet; Digestion & Elimination; Blood Sugar Regulation; Fatty Acids; Mineral Balance; Hydration.
Are you going to make me stop eating Poptarts?
As an NTP I will never force you, guilt you or coerce you into making decisions about what you can and cannot eat. We work together to support your health and lifestyle; and, in all things we work towards balance and your personal goals together.
