Unlike traditional dietitians and nutritionists, functional nutrition delves into the profound impact of food on the body, considering individual genetic composition, lifestyle choices, and health objectives. This approach emphasizes the utilization of food, supplements, and lifestyle adjustments as instruments to enhance well-being, shifting the focus from mere calorie consumption and symptom chasing to a holistic view of health improvement.

Through a 90-minute health history session, we gain insight into your entire story. We examine the links between life experiences and symptom onset, discuss what strategies have or havn’t worked for you in the past, and how to progress toward your goals in a sustainable, supported manner with manageable, realistic steps that yeild life long results.

Welcome! I’m so glad you’re here.

If you’re struggling with health issues that doctors dismiss with “It’s just a phase” or “That’s normal,” but you know deep down it’s not—I get it. I’ve been there, and I know how frustrating it can be.

Twelve years ago, I woke up unable to walk. Every step sent excruciating pain through my body. I was young, active, and raising toddlers, yet no one could tell me what was wrong. After countless appointments and years of searching, it took eight long years to finally get a diagnosis. The answer had been there all along—I just hadn’t found anyone who could truly listen and connect the dots.

Fast forward a few years to 2021, I was diagnosed with BRCA2+, a genetic mutation that increases certain cancer risks. When I asked about prevention, I was given only medical and surgical options—nothing about nutrition or supplement support. After investing time and money into expert advice, I was still left without the answers I needed. So, I took matters into my own hands.

I became a certified functional nutrition counselor so I could help others take control of their health—just like I did. My approach is holistic, science-backed, and tailored to your unique needs. Whether you’re looking to boost energy, improve digestion, or manage a chronic condition, I’m here to guide you with compassionate, personalized support.

Let’s take back your health—together!

Amanda’s non-judgmental and empathetic approach to my health concerns put me right at ease. She listened deeply and recommended changes that I could actually incorporate into my life. The health timeline and functional nutrition matrix that she created showed me connections in my health that I hadn’t realized were there – suddenly, so much made sense! After following her action plan for two months, much of my brain fog is gone, I have more energy and—bonus! – I lost a few pounds. I highly recommend her!
