Tailored to each client.
This provides the best possible results for each client willing to do the work involved in restoring their own health.
The functional approach requires a commitment to finding underlying contributors to symptoms, which are unique in each case. I work tirelessly, spending countless hours on research to connect the dots.
Support is continuous.
While completing my Ph.D. at Yale University, I went from a being a healthy, athletic individual to someone who was physically disabled. I developed neuropathy and muscle spasms. During that time, I went through 4 elbow surgeries. This led to claw hand deformity, a condition where blocked nerves cause so much muscle loss that one can't move the fingers at all. A former athlete and avid cross-country runner, I had to take the disabilities shuttle to go even a few blocks on campus. I also started to have cognitive issues from reactive hypoglycemia and severe blood sugar drops, which resulted in hospital visits. Through a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition® approach, I discovered that mold, my lifelong vegetarian diet, and failed medical interventions were major contributors to my health problems. I changed every aspect of my home, lifestyle, mentality, and nutrition and regained physical strength, and mobility in the hands and arms. I also self-corrected lordosis and scoliosis and grew .5 inches in my 40s. I worked with an FDN practitioner twice and then became a practitioner myself so others will not have to suffer as badly as I did. I am also Dr. Goodenowe Certified and I am a Certified Functional Medicine Health Consultant (Kharrazian Institute). I work with many diverse cases, but I have a special passion for brain wellness.
After helping myself, I helped my mother with Alzheimer’s restore cognitive function, and beat a resistant MRSA infection inside her prosthetic knee. Using functional lab work and intensive research, we were able to avoid an amputation after 4 surgeries did not work.
For those dealing with neurodegenerative disease, I want everyone to know that it is possible to keep your loved one out of facility and improve their cognitive function and quality of life. I know firsthand the exhaustion and isolation that neurodegenerative diseases bring upon families. My goal is to identify healing opportunities through functional lab work and restore the body to optimal function without having to “diagnose” or “treat”.
I am also Dr. Goodenowe certified and can combine plasmalogen therapy with a functional, FDN® approach. I work with all kinds of cases, not just neurodegeneration. One should not have to spend a decade or more struggling to find answers about how to reclaim health!
FDN practitioners uncover dysfunction and imbalances in the body. Rather than simply chasing symptoms, an FDN-P will help you to understand why those symptoms are happening in the first place. I work tirelessly, spending hours of research to connect your functional labs, health timeline, and symptom history.
Many people come to me as a last resort. They have “tried everything” including strict diets and exercise regimens, and they are not making progress. They have also been to many doctors and have not had success. These people usually have several layers of hidden imbalances or stressors contributing to an unwanted condition or symptoms.
Nutrition and exercise are important, but they are only one part of a larger holistic picture. It is impossible to live without symptoms if hidden stressors -- like gut infections, mitochondrial dysfunction, toxic metals or other toxin exposures -- remain hidden from view. Guessing which supplements to take and what changes to make only goes so far.
This is an opportunity for me to learn more about you and your health goals and current complaints. My main priority is only working with clients who are a perfect fit. Prior to the meeting, please respond to all questions.
