Functional Wellness for the Whole Family
When was the last time you:
I am here to help.
Do You Experience Any of the Following Symptoms?
If you said YES to 2 or more of these, it is likely you are experiencing some level of Metabolic ChaosⓇ.
Are you aware that underlying these common issues are things like hormonal imbalances, gut, dysbiosis, pathogen presence, liver congestion, oxidative stress, heavy metal toxicity, leaky gut, and more that can be causing this chaos?
Let Me Be Your Last Stop.
I use functional lab testing to end the cycles of trial and error. Your lab results reveal healing opportunities. When correlated with your extensive medical history and symptomatology, I can create a customized protocol that, when followed, will correct your imbalances and coach up your body’s innate ability to heal.
The Result?
Feeling like the best version of yourself again – or perhaps for the first time.
Elimination of symptpoms
Loving how you look and feel
Health, vitality, energy, and immune strength are all possible.
It’s not too late. You just have to be ready.
Meet April
Despite being in the nutrition and wellness space for over 20 years, I started to develop multiple symptoms like weight gain, skin issues, fatigue, disordered sleep, lowered libido, headaches, worsening PMS symptoms, bloating, muscle aches, heart palpitations, and moodiness. And that's not even the complete symptom list!
I constantly thought "how can I be so knowledgeable about how eat and live healthily but somehow be regressing in my own health?"
I even ended up in the ER. Twice. The first time I thought I was having a heart attack (clammy, dizzy, shallow breathing, pain) and the second time was with extreme heart palpitations and labored breathing.
I knew my heart was healthy, which was confirmed by cardiac follow ups, so I then asked if perhaps my thyroid was off. I was told it was likely stress because all my lab-work was "within normal limits.” But my gut told me something was wrong. And I was right.
I am not a stranger to functional medicine. I had seen a few functional docs over the years to identify food sensitivities and hormonal imbalances – but never was I given a protocol with follow up labs to make sure I had fully restored function. In the end, these imbalances, while less symptomatic, were brewing. And over time, the symptoms and underlying causes snuck back with a vengeance.
So instead of seeking random functional health practitioners to piece together their different perspectives of what was ailing me, I decided to become a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner myself.
Since then, I have run a full battery of labs on myself and identified MULTIPLE issues and imbalances that had contributed to my declining health and Metabolic Chaos®.
Having this information is powerful, but knowing what to do to correct it is life-changing.
Now I am bringing this service to my clients.
Who Can I Help?
THE ENTIRE FAMILY
WOMEN
While I specialize in
the
over-40-busy-mom-and/or-professional with a one-way ticket on the HOT MESS EXPRESS, I have a passion to help full families achieve wellness. The truth is, if I can help a woman achieve her ideal weight and optimize her health, she will pay it forward to everyone in her sphere.
MEN
Is your energy, focus or vitality lower? Do you have a harder time gaining muscle, even if you work out?
We joke that you men can seem like you're on your deathbed when you have a “man-cold,” but the truth is that most of you work hard yet don't take preventative care of yourselves. The result is your declining health and level of fitness.
Hormone imbalances and gut dysbiosis can accelerate your aging and put you at higher risk for cancers, diabetes, autoimmune issues and heart disease. But these things are also the main contributors to excess body fat, low energy levels, waning libido, and less productivity.
My goal is to prevent or reverse these conditions. By identifying specific areas that need support you can feel like a stronger, healthier, and younger version of yourself - symptom-free.
KIDS
We will do anything to help them be safe, happy and healthy yet how many kids do you know who experience anxiety, depression, ADHD, weight gain, early maturation, eczema, psoriasis, acne, autoimmune issues, allergies, asthma, and diabetes?
If caught young, their health challenges can be corrected so they can be put on a trajectory of great health now and in their future. So many times, I see kids being only prescribed meds when targeted therapies to balance their gut and simple diet changes can create incredible improvements.
Your body also has the innate ability to heal itself if given the right environment.
Using functional lab testing to find healing opportunities, I create comprehensive customized protocols to help your body find balance.
I can work with you independently, or alongside any traditional health professional, to find solutions for you and your family so you can experience a level of wellness you may never have thought possible.

Functional Lab Testing
Functional lab testing helps evaluate how well your body is (or isn't) functioning on a spectrum of health rather than just diagnosing a disease. It is empowering to gain this knowledge, but it is life-changing when you know how to take action to correct it.
That's what I do.
Our medical community often fails us, but it isn’t their fault.
Most traditional doctors or healthcare providers receive only 6 hours of nutrition in school. They are trained in diagnosing disease states and using a toolbox or surgery and medication to address the disease states they find.
Very often, you may not be sick enough for them to identify what is wrong with you. But why wait until you have cancer, diabetes, or other diseases before you focus on getting well?
The absence of sickness does not mean you are well.
Recipe Favorites
From energy-packed breakfasts to lunches and dinners that keep you burning fat, there's plenty of options to satisfy everyone's palate.
While I customize meal plans for all my clients that may include animal products, you will find these favorites to be predominantly plant-based.
High Quality Supplements
After years of being frustrated with over-priced supplements that lacked quality ingredients, I invested time researching top quality ingredients, manufacturers, and supplements that truly work. I utilize FullScript and Wellevate for brands for my targeted therapies. I use other manufacturers for complimentary nutraceuticals.
Though supplementation should be customized, I've created a list of my TOP PICKS based on their superior quality and results that can be seen.
