My Mission
I help people who are struggling with their hormones and autoimmune conditions by guiding them to reconnect with the rhythms and cycles of nature.
HELD is a 12-week one-on-one program that helps people get to the root cause of their hormone imbalances and autoimmune conditions to better manage their symptoms and feel educated about their bodies. Chronic illness can feel like you are being betrayed by your body, but your body is doing exactly what it is supposed to do with the signals it is receiving, whether those signals are environmental toxins, stress, gut dysbiosis, and so on. We use functional testing to take the guess work out and find the source of what is causing the alarms to go off and treat it naturally.
This might be right for you if...
- You have seen many practitioners and have not experienced much relief
- You have a thyroid disease diagnosis
- You have PCOS, endometriosis, fibroids, cysts, or have struggled with painful periods or fertility issues
- You have a diagnosed autoimmune condition
- You are living with chronic pain and/or fatigue
- You are ready to step into your power
- You are open to trying new things that you may not have heard about or tried before
- You want to dip your toes into a bit of “woo woo”.
- You’re ALL IN.
This might not be a good fit if...
- You are not willing to take herbs or supplements. They may be required temporarily for the duration of a protocol.
- You don’t like cooking. Mindset changes are absolutely required in this area.
- You are not willing to change your lifestyle or let go of habits that are no longer serving you.
How it Works
- Fill out the application form here.
- Book a free 15-minute Clarity Call, no strings attached. If we feel like we would be a good fit for each other.
- If we decide to move forward, payment can be made upfront or in 3 monthly installments.
- In your initial consult, we will be reviewing your intake form, your biggest concerns, health goals, and health history as well as ordering your functional testing kit. You will receive an instruction video from me detailing when and how to do the test.
- You complete test and ship the package back to the lab for analysis.
- Once your results are in, you book another session to review your protocol, order your supplements, and discuss further diet and lifestyle recommendations.
- When you book the Full Held Program, your follow-up session will allow us to make sure you are on the right track and open the floor to questions.
- The second follow up – another 4 weeks later is our final call together, we will review your progress, celebrate wins, and discuss your long-term plan.
- Don’t worry, we will also do a weekly check-in over our confidential messaging app in between sessions.

Functional Testing
Functional Testing takes the guesswork out of holistic nutrition by providing data that gives us a clear image of what is going on with your gut flora. The Gastrointestinal Microbial Assay Plus (GI-MAP) is an innovative clinical tool that measures gastrointestinal microbiota DNA from a single stool sample with state of the art, quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) technology.
In other words, it not only shows us the state of your beneficial bacterial flora, and the pathogenic, parasitic and fungal, but it also shows us the quantity of each.
