Bio

I received my training in Human Nutrition and Functional Medicine at University of Western States in Portland, Oregon. Additionally, I have training in eating psychology and work with my patients to build a healthy relationship with food and their body. I work with patients who are trying to conceive, are pregnant, or postpartum/new parents as well as adrenal and thyroid health, metabolism, nervous system regulation, and blood sugar management. I take a detailed history at the first visit and aim to address root causes that may be contributing to certain symptoms or ways of eating and then partner with my patients to create treatment plans that adjust with our every-changing bodies.
