About Me
I am a Registered Nutritional Therapist who loves being in nature. It is my passion to help others feel good in simple and maintainable ways through nutrition and lifestyle changes. I believe in a holistic approach to health that considers the whole person - mind, body, and spirit. I believe that bodies have an incredible ability to heal when given the resources they need to do so. I believe in eating enough and fueling our bodies well.
I grew up in Valemount, a small mountain village and still live here with my family. I have 2 amazing daughters, an incredibly supportive husband and 2 dogs. I love backpacking, my garden, all things outdoors and food. Not many things make me happier than cooking for my family with food that I grew myself.
I’ve been an athlete in some way for most of my life, I was a national wrestling champion in high school, avid backpacker and have run 3 half marathons. I have also had years of my life where I did not feel well and did not do anything physical at all. I have struggled with exercise induced migraines, hypoglycemia, random nausea and feeling very unwell without being able to find answers.
I am also stubborn and found many of my own answers through food.
I no longer feel the need to carry Advil and peppermints at all times to deal with the random nausea or migraines. I manage my blood sugar well so that the spikes (and resulting crashes) don't require me to always have food with me. Fewer crashes also mean fewer cortisol spikes, more stable mood and improved energy allowing me to enjoy the things I love to do.
Not everyone has the ability or desire to sort things out for themselves and this was a driving force behind getting my diploma in holistic nutrition and becoming a Registered Nutritional Therapist. I absolutely love helping people to feel better in a way that is realistic and maintainable.
Now I am fortunate to work with clients to develop customized nutrition plans that are tailored to their individual needs and goals to ensure they have the lasting results they need. I offer group programs, one-on-one consultations with ongoing support, personalized nutrition plans, and athletic nutrition guidance.
You deserve to feel good. I can help you get there.
Love,
Amy
