Welcome to In Full Bloom

PERSONALIZED APPROACH

Discover your unique needs with a client centered, personalized approach using your values and strengths. Together we tailor a plan that fits with your health goals and bridge the gap from where you are to where you want to be.

HOLISTIC WELLNESS

Explore how the interconnectedness of your body systems and your environment can contribute to lasting health. Instead of focusing solely on isolated symptoms or diseases, I look at the whole person. I will consider your physical, emotional, and social aspects of health to help you develop a comprehensive plan. We will seek to uncover the underlying causes of your health issues, which could be related to factors like nutrition, stress, sleep, relationships or environmental influences.

NUTRITION GUIDANCE

Learn how to nourish your body with the right foods to support your health and well-being.

MIND-BODY CONNECTION

Learn techniques to enhance your physical, mental and emotional health, through breathwork and mind-body practices and gain physical and mental clarity.

LIFESTYLE ADJUSTMENTS

Learn how stress, sleep and physical activity impact you physically and emotionally. We work together to set specific, realistic, measurable goals that will allow you to make sustainable lifestyle changes necessary to support your health. This could involve dietary modifications, exercise routines, stress management techniques, and sleep improvement strategies. 

BREATHWORK

Learn breathwork practices to help you reduce stress and anxiety and regulate your nervous system. Some of the benefits of breathwork may include improved sleep, improved digestion and metabolism, lowered blood pressure, improved mood and emotions, balanced energy and mental focus and nervous system balancing. 

HEARTMATH TECHNIQUE FOR STRESS, RESILIENCY AND SELF-REGULATION

Tuning into your heart’s wisdom creates a profound shift within that helps you approach situations with more emotional balance, compassion, clarity and personal confidence. Learn about the different types of heart-centered breathing that may promote physical and emotional awareness  and overall health.

COLLABORATION

I can work alongside other healthcare professionals, such as doctors, nutritionists, and therapists to create a comprehensive and coordinated approach to your health. 

ONGOING SUPPORT

We work together to determine what type of support would be most helpful to you based on your specific needs and desires.

What Sets Me Apart?

In addition to being a certified Functional Medicine Health Coach, I am a certified Breathwork Coach and a Certified HeartMath Practitioner for Stress, Anxiety and Self-regulation. I will guide you through practices that may provide a balancing effect for your nervous system. Imbalances or dysregulation of the nervous system can contribute to various health issues, including chronic stress, anxiety, sleep disorders, and cardiovascular problems. Practices such as breathwork and stress management techniques can help promote nervous system regulation and contribute to overall health and resilience. 

Perhaps some of my story resonates with you; juggling work, a family, a busy household, and autoimmune disease affecting myself and my two boys. I didn't realize that I was living in my "fight or flight" (stress) nervous system for so long and how prolonged, low level stress propagates unhealth. When I found Functional Medicine and began to apply the principles to my life and my family's life, the healing journey began. Managing stress is the foundation for health.  Even low levels of prolonged stress can contribute to disease and not allow our bodies to heal emotionally or physically, regardless of how well we eat and how much we exercise. When I discovered the power that breathwork has on regulating the nervous system, changing our physiology and biochemistry and reducing stress, it changed my life for the better. Let me support you in creating the foundation for your health through the principles of breathwork and other stress reduction techniques. Let's lay the foundation for your health together. 

How is a Health Coach Different from a Nutritionist or Functional Medicine Practitioner?

A nutritionist specializes in the field of nutrition, providing expertise in dietary assessment, planning, and education. A functional medicine health coach takes a broader, more holistic approach to health, considering various lifestyle factors. I work with you to find the foods and ways of eating that work best for your body and lifestyle. I will also help you with movement and exercise, sleep optimization, stress management and relationship building.  Coaching is more like counseling than medical treatment. We work together to clarify your health goals. I don’t diagnose, prescribe, or treat any medical condition as a physician would. I will work together with your physician or any of your health care practitioners. I partner with YOU in a collaborative and supportive manner to help you achieve your health and wellness goals. 

Functional Medicine looks at the "HOW" and the "WHY" disease occurs. Rather than just treating an isolated set of symptoms, Functional Medicine addresses the root cause of disease. It looks at the interconnectedness of the body as a whole taking into the account the mind, body and spirit.

The Functional Medicine Coaching Academy is the ONLY Program Designed in Collaboration with The Institute for Functional Medicine.
