You will be asked to fill out several intake forms prior to working together. This is an important step in learning about your health story, symptoms, history, and lifestyle. Some of the forms will be revisited periodically to measure your progress. 

This is the foundation of what I do and how I work. The lab testing I offer allows me to get a full picture of your health so that I can create the most powerful healing protocol, unique to you. I’ve partnered with some of the most cutting-edge labs in North America to bring you quality labs to measure hormone function, immune health, detoxification ability, digestive capacity, energy production, and oxidative stress. The lab screenings include stool testing, blood testing, urine testing, saliva testing, mucosal barrier permeability, food sensitivities, gut pathogens, DNA cell damage, and much more. Most labs will be collected at home while others may require you to visit your local blood lab. These will help me pinpoint your personal healing opportunities and customize your individualized plan for the best results. Lab results are always correlated with your personal presentation as we are ultimately concerned with helping you feel better, not just improving the numbers on the paper.

We will work together twice a month over a period of 3-6 months (depending on the program you choose) via video chat or phone call. Every client gets a customized D.R.E.S.S. for Health Success ® protocol based on detailed history collection, unique symptoms, lab results and clinical correlation your body needs in the five pillars of health; Diet, Rest, Exercise, Stress Reduction, and Supplementation. This is our way of restoring your body’s function by bringing energy back to every cell, tissue, organ, and system. I will be here to guide you each step of the way. I’ll gradually add all these components in as you’re ready and based on your case. For the best results, all five of these components need to be optimized. You’ll have all the resources you need to be set up for health success.

There is always time for questions during sessions. The most important question in functional medicine is “why?” And you should know “why” too. It is your body, health, and life after all. When you truly understand how things work, your success rate increases. I want to make sure you understand why the different aspects of your personal plan are helpful. We’ll talk about how the body functions and what it means for you personally.

I am invested in your health and want to see you reach your goals. I will offer my best support during our work together as your coach, teacher, and encourager. In addition, I encourage you to find support from family, friends, and other health practitioners as needed. Accountability is key to every healing journey. We will meet twice a month during our time together to check in and do any protocol tweaking if necessary.

Sometimes you can’t feel the positive changes in the body, and it’s difficult to quantify something that’s otherwise a very subjective experience. So I am able to accurately monitor your improvement using health scorecards. This allows me to see where your protocol needs tweaking to keep your healing momentum going. I commit to you by providing the support, education, and assessment tools needed. You commit to self-testing, self-care, and the hard work involved to get well. We all want quick fixes, but in reality, health doesn’t work that way. A heartfelt commitment to yourself and the healing process is the bedrock of your success and a lifelong mission. Your health is your most important asset and you are worth it! We make time for the things that are most important to us. Gaining knowledge and awareness is both an investment now and in the future for living your best life.
