Bronte Grooms

About Bronte

Hey there, I’m Brontë, a West Coast dietitian, functional medicine nerd, and proud dog mom to a 12-year-old fur monster who sheds enough hair to clothe a small village. I’ve spent the last decade studying how food, stress, and genes all work together (and sometimes against us) to shape our health. Before functional medicine, I worked in sales, which included long hours, high pressure, and way too much caffeine. My anxiety spiked, my gut rebelled, and sleep became optional. I was chasing success, but my body was begging me to slow down. That’s when I realized “hustle” isn’t a personality trait; it’s a stress response. That crash course in burnout taught me this: if your wellness plan doesn’t fit your real life, it won’t stick. I know the struggle of trying to “eat healthy” while your body runs on fumes. Healing isn’t about perfection but rather progress, curiosity, and showing up for yourself, one small step at a time.

Approach to care

I don’t do rigid diets or one-size-fits-all plans. I do real life. If your mornings start with coffee and chaos, we’ll work with that. If you’ve got a schedule that changes every week, I’ll help you build habits that bend without breaking. My work blends the best of nutritional science, functional medicine, and common sense. I help you untangle the root causes behind stress, gut issues, hormone imbalances, and energy crashes. Because you don’t need another rulebook, you need a roadmap that fits who you are and where you’re at. Whether you’re an overworked professional, a tired mom, or someone who just wants to feel normal again, I’ll meet you exactly where you are and we’ll move forward from there.

Your first session with Bronte

Our first session is all about you — your story, your habits, your stress, your sleep, and all the little details that make your health yours. I listen deeply (with zero judgment) and help you connect the dots between your symptoms and what’s really driving them. From there, we’ll build a plan that’s actually doable and fits your life, not the other way around. Expect honesty, strategy, and a little humor when you need it. No detox teas. No “shoulds.” Just science, support, and small steps that add up to big change. Because health isn’t about doing everything perfectly, it’s about doing something consistently that makes you a better human than you were yesterday.

Hobbies

When I’m not helping clients hack their health, you’ll usually find me in the gym lifting weights or in my kitchen experimenting with herbs, plants, and whatever I can turn into a meal or tincture. I’m a big believer that food is medicine — sometimes literally. My 12-year-old dog keeps me company (and keeps my vacuum busy), and I love picking up new hobbies depending on the season — whether that’s hiking in the summer, drying herbs in the fall, or just learning something new to keep life interesting.
