Preteens / Tweens (11 to 13) Nutritionists and Dietitians near Des Peres, MO

As a wellness coach, I help clients navigating a path to the health changes they desire most. Some specific challenges I have helped clients overcome include weight loss, improved nutritional habits, improved fitness, and being able to reduce or eliminate need for medications. Research has shown that lasting change is a process which takes time, curiosity, patience, perseverance and a willingness to grow. Clients often come to me after spending months or even years "stuck in the muck", frustrated at being unable to outgrow old habits which are having a negative impact on their health and well-being.

Are you miserable? Are you finally ready for a change?

Finding foods that help you meet your health goals can be challenging. Hormonal imbalance, nutrient deficiencies, or autoimmune conditions can muddy the waters. With 80% of the body’s immune system residing in the gut, working with a practitioner that understands how food effects the microbiome and hormones, is essential to creating a practical path to wellness. Do you suffer from chronic health conditions such as lupus, IBD, fibromyalgia, RA, MS, or others? Do you have signs of poor digestion such as IBS, bloating, diarrhea, constipation, or struggle with stubborn weight? The type of food you are consuming could be to blame.
