Hello + Welcome!
My mission is to help women thrive and feel like themselves again. As a Functional Medicine & Nutrition practitioner, I combine integrative, traditional women’s wisdom with the best reviewed scientific evidence for the prevention and treatment of common health concerns. I’ll show you how to regain health, vitality, and joy!
As an Functional Medicine Nutrition practitioner, I’m here to show you how to resolve your fatigue, hormone, gut, and weight issues using food, herbs, and targeted supplements as medicine.
We’ll assess the root cause factors that cause fatigue, depression, autoimmune conditions, hormone imbalances, gut health, weight gain, infertility, and disruptive peri- and menopause symptoms that are lowering your quality of life.
No matter where you are on your life’s path, I can assure you it’s possible to reach your health goals and live a vibrant, energetic life.
I'll help you discover pleasure in the midst of taking better care of yourself. Life requires balance—so let's eat the chia and savor the chocolate!
Hello there! I’m Stephanie, and I specialize in women's health and wellness.

I aim to inspire you to improve your health using the most effective and supportive nutrition and health counseling you'll ever receive, blending part evidence based nutrition, part traditional women’s wisdom, and part life coaching—all wrapped up in a collaborative approach, so you can feel like your best self again.

“Stephanie helped bring me from sleeping 15 hours a day to being able to teach fitness classes! I so appreciate her supportive listening and digging in deep to figure out what was actually happening.”
—Lyn Lyndbergh
“I feel amazing, which has caused a ripple effect in my personal and professional life. Stephanie gave me the tools I needed to look and feel my very best (I've lost 30 lbs!), which as I've learned, starts from the inside. Thank you Stephanie, really truly!”
—Sherry
“Working with Stephanie has been miraculous. I have had trouble with my digestive system for many years – nausea, diarrhea, almost instant allergic type symptoms that caused great distress, shaking that would go on for hours. One of my worried daughters suggested I speak to Stephanie. Now I’ve not only changed my diet, I've changed my attitude toward the food I eat. I feel healthier, more confident, and rarely have any of my previous symptoms and can sleep without sleeping pills. A sincere and heartfelt thank you for taking on my deeply entrenched food issues, and my psychological issues around food, and helping me overcome them. A gift beyond price."
-Leslie
"I've lost weight, I have won my battle with acid reflux disease, my stomach issues are gone (no dairy anymore!) and believe it or not-my vision has improved! Since I'm the "cook" in my family, my whole family has seen the benefits-especially my husband who has lost weight and whose cholesterol levels have lowered. Stephanie has worked so closely with me to help me develop an individualized food plan that works for me and my family. I highly recommend her!”
—Lisa
“All of my many results include: a healthy digestive system, a stronger and leaner body, steady energy without ups and downs, and losing 7 pounds. And the most important result: I feel great.
It's the best investment in my health and wellbeing I have ever made. Thank you, Stephanie.”
—Elizabeth
“My body feels free of aches and my joints are free of pain. Often when I would sit and then get up my joints would be stiff and painful. This is gone. I feel lighter and lithe. I can pick my grandsons up and throw them around. I feel clear headed and more in touch with my intuition. I have lost the fat around my middle. I weighed 135.5 before and I am at 125.5 now. In the past I have had some IBS symptoms but those are all clear. In short I simply feel better and happier."
—Lydia
“I have never been a fan of the "quick fix" - You have given me real tools that I can use to change myself and my family. I am your huge fan!”
—Erin
If you've been following me for awhile you know I love me some seeds. Why?
Where do I begin?
First, I love them for your hormones: flaxseeds, sesame seeds, and pumpkin seeds contain compounds known as lignans and phytoestrogens help modulate estrogen in your body by binding to estrogen receptors and exerting either estrogenic or anti-estrogenic effects depending on the body's hormonal needs.
Rather than chasing a goal, what if you decide to chase the feeling you want to help you attain that goal!?
When you understand how you want to feel, your external goals can shift into a more comfortable place in your psyche, and you will likely feel much more integrated. The pursuit itself becomes much more satisfying.
Perimenopause is the transitional phase leading up to menopause, during which a woman's body undergoes significant hormonal changes. One of the hormones that fluctuates during perimenopause is estrogen. These hormonal fluctuations can have various effects on the body, including the cardiovascular system, which can contribute to a racing heart.
