Online Health Coaching
that treats the cause, not the symptom
Have you ever left the doctor's office feeling unheard or frustrated that your symptoms were treated with a quick prescription, only to leave you with no answers as to why your symptoms occurred in the first place? As an Integrative Health Practitioner, I offer so much more than a quick fix. I offer space for you to feel heard, get to the root cause through at-home functional medicine lab testing, and empower and educate you to reach your health goals.
Our bodies are complex and products that make promises to fix a myriad of problems simply do not exist. In my online health coaching practice, I get to the root cause, and create a customized plan specifically for you and your health concerns so that you can experience true vitality - both on and off your plate.

My Approach
to Online Health Coaching
Use food as medicine
Food is much more powerful than we give it credit for and my health coaching centers on unlocking the
power of proper nutrition and allowing it to activate your body's natural healing process. Allowing food to be your medicine will get to the root of the problem and solve it permanently rather than simply putting a
bandaid on the symptom.
Designed and tailored to you
When it comes to your body, there is no one size fits all. Your lifestyle, diet, stressors, and microbiome all play a role in your individual health. This is why I believe so strongly that one diet or one miracle product that promises to have your solution can only fix a small part of the problem temporarily. While respecting the bio-individuality of your body, I will create a plan built on my expertise that is designed for you and is continually tailored to you along the way.
Not just a program but a life change
I am incredibly passionate about my clients, which is why I do not want to simply fix your problems, but also educate and empower you to continue making healthy choices well after you complete my program. I teach my clients to make sustainable choices that fit their lifestyle, how to listen to their body and understand it intuitively, and help them discover what ultimately works for them and their health.

Testimonials
Katie changed my life. I feel better about myself, my home and work life. I’m finally sleeping better for the first time in my adult life. Katie truly cares about her clients. In my time with Katie, I never felt pressured to do anything I didn’t feel comfortable with and she never made me feel ashamed if I made a mistake or had an off day. I can’t recommend Katie enough!
- Whitney
Katie is remarkable! I would recommend her to anyone who is ready to pursue an improvement in their health journey, and anyone who needs a coach to come alongside them to provide wisdom, trusted information, and a vast amount of skill. Thank you a million times over for the impact that you had on me!!! From all that you helped me with from a health and food perspective, to getting my period back after 8 years, I cannot thank you enough!!
- Madison
This was the first time I have ever been treated as a whole person- mentally, emotionally, and physically. My experience working with you has changed my life, and has also changed my perspective of self-care and longevity. I feel better inside and out-- no more inflammation, no pain, and so much more energy. Thank you.
- Susan
Anyone who wants to better understand their body and refine their approach to health should work with Katie. She’s understanding, sympathetic and helped me understand what my body needs, and how to minimize my cravings. -Robyn
Katie is an amazing coach. She is incredibly knowledgeable and also kind, caring and empathetic. Katie helped me work through this by teaching me how to honor my hunger, and build a plate of nutrient rich foods that leave me full and fuel my body. She helped me choose exercise that feels good and doesn’t just make me feel exhausted or overworked. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone who is looking to improve their physical health and relationship with food and exercise.
-Kelley
Before working with Katie, I was struggling to get back into a healthy routine post-partum, struggled with gut issues, and also was dealing with the aftermath of historic eating issues. I had tried dieting, intense workouts, and a range of unsustainable meausres to weight loss, gut health & post-partum recovery. With her guidance, I no longer feel deprived or panicked about food. I have started to get closer to where I was physically before baby, which has included losing weight, gaining muscle & feeling more empowered about what I eat. I would recommend Katie to anyone struggling with gut issues, post-partum recovery, or disorded eating. She will truly show up for you.

Together, we will get to the root cause and ...
Heal your gut naturally
Gut issues are symptoms of a more significant problem. Rather than taking another supplement or trying another diet that leads to nowhere, we will dig deep to uncover the root of the problem through functional lab testing, and build a plan to permanently heal your gut naturally.
Minimize food cravings
The three biggest culprits when it comes to food cravings are sugar, salt, and caffeine. An intense craving is usually a signal that your body is sending when something is out of balance. Together we will restore that balance and put an end to being controlled by your cravings.
Reduce chronic stress and burnout
Stress is a normal part of life. But when you are struggling from too much stress you will begin to feel the residual effects which can possibly lead to feeling completely burnt out. A customized plan focused on nutrient-dense foods will repair the cells that were damaged by stress and provide you with the extra energy your body needs to manage stress properly. You will also learn a holistic approach to managing your stress that you can carry through life.
Say goodbye to brain fog
You are most likely suffering from high levels of inflammation and hormone changes which are now affecting your mood, energy levels, and focus throughout the day. With the right foods at my guidance, we will decrease inflammation and give you the right fuel to have enough energy to keep your brain fog spells away.
Heal SIBO naturally
If you are struggling with SIBO, it means that your small intestine has far too much bacteria than normal. The excess of bacteria is eating up the nutrients that your body needs and damaging the lining in your intestine. Through whole foods, supplementation, and proper nutrition, I will set you up on the path to bring down the excess bacteria in your small intestine, repair the damage, relieve your body from painful symptoms, and restore your health.
Say goodbye to the mid-day energy crash
We all have days when we are a little extra tired than normal. But it becomes a problem when every day feels impossible without a nap, or you need caffeine in order to get through your afternoon. Low energy is typically a result of nutrient deficiencies, and rather than chugging down another cup of coffee, we will pinpoint exactly what nutrients you are lacking and work them back into your diet.
Address stubborn weight gain
We live in a diet-crazed culture that pushes us to choose appearance over health. Instead, I choose to place my focus on empowering women to appreciate their bodies in all its stages. The weight that you lose is just a benefit. When you focus on nourishing your body with nutrient- dense, whole foods, your body will realign and consequently drop the unnecessary weight it's holding onto.
Say goodbye to troubled sleep
Most of my clients who are having trouble with sleep are also struggling with stress. Instead of taking a heavy drug to knock you into unconsciousness, I treat the core issue and target my efforts on lowering your stress, making dietary changes, and teaching you holistic techniques to guide you into deep, natural sleep.
Heal IBS naturally
Believe it or not, but IBS is not a real diagnosis. It is simply stating that there is digestive distress that needs attention.With my expertise in digestive issues, I will create an achievable and realistic plan created specifically for you that will determine your triggers, and get you back to enjoying your food without the pain.
Balance your hormones naturally
There could be many reasons why you don't have a period. The most common I see in the women I help are they have recently stopped taking their birth control, are underweight, or are overstressed. My program includes an at-home hormone test that will outline exactly where the imbalance lies. Together, through diet, lifestyle & activity changes, we will balance your hormones naturally and get you back to a regular, healthy menstrual cycle void of pesky PMS symptoms.
Have a PMS free period
Your estrogen and progesterone ratio becomes disproportionate, which worsens your PMS symptoms. I will create a plan specific to you and the needs of your body that will regulate your hormones and make it possible to live free of fear from your painful symptoms.
Improve your relationship with food
We starve ourselves and then overindulge. We withhold our favorites until we feel like we deserve them. We commit to a strict diet that only accomplishes placing us in the mindset of self-loathing. This cycle can end. As someone who has personal experience with an eating disorder, I provide you with the tools you need to facilitate your change in mindset and get you to a place where you embrace food without guilt and fear. Let's break free of dieting and get back to healthy and happy lives where we enjoy the food we eat.
