A love of health and wellness was instilled in me from a young age, my family put a strong emphasis on taking care of our bodies well in order to live a long and healthy life. At one point in my childhood my father opened an organic grocery business out of our garage so that he was able to afford for our family to eat as well as he believed that we should. Witnessing that drive for creating a healthy environment for our family is one of the reasons I am passionate about not only supporting and instilling those same values for my own family but also in supporting others in their own journeys to do the same for themselves. As soon as I heard the term “Holistic Nutritionist” I knew that this was the career path for me, so I pursued an education at the Canadian School of Natural Nutrition and I earned my designation of Registered Holistic Nutritionist.
As a Holistic Nutritionist I look at the individual as a whole, taking into consideration not only a persons diet, but their lifestyle as well as any other factors that could be contributing to their main health concerns. I aim to help identify the root of the issues my clients are facing in order to offer specific support to help them achieve their wellness goals.
As a Holistic Nutritionist these are some of the things I am able to help with:
● Acne/skin conditions
● Cravings
● Depression/Anxiety
● Detoxification
● Dietary changes/food sensitivities
● Digestive Issues
● Hormonal Imbalances
● Low energy / fatigue
● Meal Planning
● Prenatal, Pregnancy & Postpartum Nutrition
● Sleep Disturbances
● Weight-loss
I look forward to connecting with you and helping you achieve your health goals!
