Work with me!
I recognize that everyone is unique and has a story that needs to be heard to find deep healing and optimal health. Together, we will cultivate a therapeutic partnership based in trust and collaboration. I always work through the lens of two fundamental truths. The first is that you are completely unique. Your body and your symptoms are the way they are because of a culmination of factors that are unique to you. You do not fit into a fixed formula, nor are you a simple statistic. I will consider your personal history, body and physiology, lifestyle, and goals. The second fundamental truth is that your symptoms tell a story and is likely leading to many root causes. There are so many factors that contribute to your suffering, and they all need to be addressed. We often are prescribed a medication to treat the symptoms or theories behind a diagnosis, but we aren't actually treating the roots causes. Therefore, we continue to fight illness, weight gain, disease and other ailments. We will create a therapeutic plan that addresses all areas of concerns, so you can finally feel your best!
Nutrition counseling
Find your ideal weight
It’s incredibly common for the body to hold on to excess body fat when it is in a state of inflammation or unexplained illnesses. This can be very frustrating for many people who may be doing “all the right things” in order to shed the weight. In fact, this can often be one of the main reasons individuals reach out to work with me. There is a reason the scale isn’t moving!
On the flip side, many people struggle to gain and maintain a healthy weight due to underlying health conditions of physiological dysfunction. Nutrition and lifestyle counseling will uncover the root causes behind the symptoms, signs and diagnosis.
Food as medicine
If allergies, illness, or sensitivities have complicated your relationship with food, halted your weight loss efforts or even compromised your health, it’s time to talk.
Try new recipes
If you need try find inspiration in the kitchen, try any of my recipes! Each recipe is easy, simple, delicious and nutritious. I promise, your whole family will love them!
a functional health approach
I have a deep respect for client education and empowerment. I take the time to break down the fundamentals of human biology, physiology, nutrition science and lifestyle intervention. I truly believe that when an individual is ready to find optimal health and healing, they need to know the WHY behind the therapeutic strategies we set in motion. I will guide you through the process as you set a pace that keeps you comfortable and confident.
the role of the client
I understand that the work of healing is entirely in the hands of you! You are the one doing the work at home. Do not let this create a sense of anxiety or fear. Instead, be hopeful because we will work together with your comfort and abilities in mind. You will never feel lost in the process. You will feel confident in knowing that I am right by your side as your guide through your healing.
the role of the practitioner
I’ll ask you high-mileage questions in order to identify factors that have contributed to suffering. We will clear the “muddy waters”, gather data, assess and build a customized plan together. I will educate, nurture, and listen to you because it’s your ever-changing story that dictates our treatment plan, and ultimately, your outcome.
merging functional nutrition with holistic health
Your healing starts with a simple conversation in which Kelsey refers to as a “Strategy Session.” Through this conversation, you are welcome to share your story according to your comfort level. Kelsey will share how the process of nutrition and health counseling works to make sure you feel it’s a good fit!
When working with Kelsey, she will take the first steps to establish a deep and intimate understanding of what makes you so unique. The two of you will work together to clear the “muddy waters” by reducing systemic inflammation (the cause of many symptoms) in order to see a clearer picture and determining the first steps in your care. The next process is all about listening and gathering data as Kelsey works to identify possible lifestyle and nutrient deficiencies. She will work with you to build a customized plan unique to your story, health history. and current life demands. This plan will continue to evolve as you progress through your healing journey.
