About Heather

I'm a Registered & Licensed Dietitian, Certified Personal Trainer and Integrative & Functional Medicine Practitioner. I've been in practice for 25 years! I take a very integrative & holistic approach to health & nutrition to get to the root cause of your health issues. I'm also a mom of 2 boys and I live on a farm where we have chickens, turkeys, ducks, geese and 2 dogs. I've had my own struggles with different health issues but through proper nutrition, exercise, stress management and lifestyle changes, I feel like I got my life back and I'm passionate about helping others do the same!

Approach to care

My approach to care is: 1.) to listen to my patients first. I find in this day in age, people tend to not feel heard from their health care practitioners so I really try to listen. 2.) to meet people where they are currently. My intention is not to take away all of your favorite foods and make you be on a restrictive diet because I've found too often that doesn't work long-term. We will work together to make small changes and those changes may be even adding certain foods instead of taking them away. 3.) Making small changes. Making that change a habit, then once you've made that change a habit, making another small change. Making small changes leads to a big change and success.

Your first session with Heather

In the first session, there will be an assessment with lots of questions on your current routines/lifestyle and eating habits. I like to get to know the people I'm working with and look at the whole picture: nutrition, exercise, sleep, stress, emotions, mindset, lab work, supplements/medications etc. in order for me to help you the best I can. After the assessment is complete, we will develop a plan together based on your needs and goals and there will be education on how to implement the plan.
