I LOVE helping people live healthier. My style is highly comprehensive - looking at the many pieces that make up our nutritional health. I am skillful at helping people reach a healthier weight (especially those who have attempted other ways unsuccessfully). I am also passionate about topics like brain health, good mood foods, preteen/teen nutrition, ADHD/ADD, confidence and self- esteem, nutrient deficiencies, eating best for your DNA, food sensitivity and anti-inflammation recommendations (Leap MRT testing). I also have a significant clinical background so eating for healthy aging and disease prevention is also in my wheelhouse.

Are you sick and tired of being sick and tired? Are you wanting to make changes with your diet and lifestyle but don't know where to start? Navigating this complex food world can be daunting, it's my mission to provide a non-judgemental, caring space to help my clients get started. Through my work with hundreds of clients and through navigating my own health and healing journey, I have learned to embody a simple, approachable, non-diet, food-first philosophy.

I've experienced the healing power of nutrition firsthand, having struggled with insomnia, acne and regular migraines before I realized my diet was the culprit. I understand that an individualized approach is necessary to achieve the same kinds of results I experienced, which is why I am here to support, motivate and educate you the whole way so you too can experience the positive effects of nutrition. I find it extremely rewarding to see how nutrition can positively change people's lives. Let's get started on your success story.

What we put into our bodies ultimately affects how we feel and how healthy our body is... I often compare our bodies to an engine of a vehicle. When working well...all is good...when not working well, it can be a crisis! We can drive around in our vehicle when its making funny sounds or random lights are on telling us something isn't quite right, but... if we do this too long, our vehicles stop running and then we have a crisis! Our health and bodies are no different......

I provide Virtual Consultation by secure video or phone calls. If you’re looking to meet with a dietitian/nutritionist to help with your current state of health, you are in the right place! Working with a dietitian/nutritionist can help you see the connection between your symptoms and what you are eating (or not eating). It can open your eyes to a world of ways to nourish your body. And it can help bring you into a balanced and healthy state. The human body has an amazing ability to heal itself, when provided proper nourishment.

I strive to build confidence in your choices and become more in tune with your body's cues and needs. I seek to help my clients meet their wellness goals through an individualized approach. Whether you are looking for general nutrition education, improving your relationship with food, or other nutrition and health related challenges, I look forward to partnering with you on your journey.

I am not accepting new clients at this time. My goal is to walk beside you on your journey to feeling better about meeting your unique nutritional needs. My hope is to help you reconnect with your body by identifying hunger and fullness cues, helping to manage critical thoughts about food or checking in on your grocery list. We can partner together to address your concerns to allow you to feel better physically and mentally so you can rebuild, strengthen and enjoy your relationship with food. My approach includes prescriptive, intuitive and mindful eating.

My goal is to help people of all ages develop and maintain a peaceful relationship with food. Eating is meant to be enjoyed. However, eating can often become complex, confusing and stressful. I use a non-diet, Health at Every Size (HAES)-informed, "all foods fit" approach to help individuals build trust in themselves and their bodies. Let's optimize your nutrition while honoring hunger cues and cravings.

Flourish Nutrition Counseling offers individualized support for those who are struggling with eating disorders, disordered eating and those looking to end the cycle of chronic dieting. All of our Registered Dietitians are also Certified Intuitive Eating Counselors, meaning we are equipped to help you relearn your body's physical sensations of hunger and fullness to ensure you meet your biological and psychological needs. We practice from a Health At Every Size (HAES) informed lens, meaning we do not focus on the number on the scale but rather the behaviors that contribute to overall health. We believe all bodies deserve respect.

I specialize in evolutionary health - using a hunter-gatherer diet, primal exercise, and gut health to lose weight and heal disease. Our ancestors ate mostly meat, fruit, honey, eggs, raw dairy, and some root vegetables for 99% of our evolution and by adopting this historic human diet, we can not only lose weight but also heal autoimmune, digestive, and chronic diseases. I also specialize in gut health which includes killing harmful bacterial and fungal infections in the gut, introducing beneficial bacteria, and healing the gut lining. I am a Licensed Nutritionist, both nationally (CNS) and in the State of MN (LN).

Are you feeling overwhelmed by all the different messages in the media around nutrition and exercise? Does it feel like all the information you’re exposed to just leaves you feeling confused, defeated, or frustrated? Are you finding your thoughts around food and your body are taking up more space in your mind than you would like? Are you looking for guidance on how to nourish your body with nutrition and movement in a way that works individually for you, while taking into account all the factors that make you unique? If you relate to any of the above, I am happy you are here :)

At Cultivate, we are honored to hold space for clients who are finding life a little bit hard. We value client-centered care, creativity, continuous education (for ourselves and our clients), and feeling connected within our practice, the community, and ourselves. We have a particular passion for working with adolescents and young adults, and bridging the gap between higher levels of care and real-life experiences like sharing a living space, grocery shopping, and keeping a budget. We specialize in age-appropriate guidance for those balancing mental health concerns with their first steps into adulthood.

After more than 30 years in the field, my passion for nutrition continues. Seeing a client find relief from pain and exhaustion is a joy! Plus, I can relate to their desperation to get their life back. In 2005 I put my knowledge of nutrition to the test when, two weeks after invasive back surgery I was diagnosed with breast cancer. Shortly afterwards I discovered multiple food allergies. Once those were removed I stopped three prescription medications and feel better than I had in years. I absolutely love bringing that relief to clients!

As a registered dietitian, my goal is to help my clients develop a healthy and peaceful relationship with food.

My goal is to help un-complicate this information with an anti-diet and individualized approach to help you address your nutrition related concerns and make eating easier.
