Welcome to My Journey of Healing &Transformation

Welcome! I'm thrilled to share my journey with you because it's a story of transformation, hope, and the power of balanced nutrition and healing.

Explore the World of Well-Being

Throughout my journey, I've encountered persistent challenges that have shaped my relationship with food and self-perception. Despite voicing concerns about weight gain, consistent pain, and a pervasive feeling of unease, I've often found that medical professionals were not receptive to my struggles. This lack of acknowledgment left me feeling unheard and further compounded my sense of frustration. Yet, amid these obstacles, I have persisted, seeking avenues for understanding and solutions to my health concerns.

My Turning Point

In 2013, a pivotal moment arose as I embraced motherhood. Confronted with the daunting reality of weighing 210 pounds post-pregnancy, I recognized the imperative for transformation. The burden of shedding the postpartum weight compounded by the responsibility to set a healthy example for my son, Job, weighed heavily on me. This struggle to reclaim my pre-pregnancy physique not only posed a physical challenge but also precipitated a profound emotional toll, plunging me into a state of depression. Driven by a fervent desire to safeguard my child from inheriting my struggles, I embarked upon a meticulous journey of self-exploration and research, fervently pursuing the elusive balance between nutrition, well-being, and maternal responsibilities.

Around the age of 7 or 8, a significant revelation emerged in our journey as I learned that my son, Job, grappled with challenges beyond the ordinary spectrum. His diagnosis of debilitating anxiety and PTSD,, unveiled a new dimension to our narrative. Faced with this revelation, I embarked on an earnest quest for understanding and solutions, seeking guidance from a distinguished developmental pediatrician.

Under the expert counsel, I delved into the intricate interplay between natural supplements, essential oils, and the profound influence of chemicals and dyes on children's behavioral and emotional well-being. Initially overwhelmed by the complexity of these insights, my primary concern remained preserving Job's childhood innocence amidst the rigors of therapeutic interventions. The juxtaposition of his diagnosis with the desire for familial normalcy, encompassing celebratory occasions and communal outings, prompted introspection.

Nevertheless, the pediatrician's reassurance regarding the importance of equilibrium resonated profoundly. It dawned on me that achieving balance was paramount, not just for Job's well-being but also for my own enduring struggle with dietary restrictions and the perpetual oscillation between living fully and imposing limits. This epiphany marked a transformative juncture, illuminating a path towards holistic living characterized by harmony and fulfillment

A New Passion Forms from an Unexpected Turn…

My Mission

This profound realization kindled within me a fervent dedication to harness the healing power of nutrition, enriching lives while preserving the joys of indulgence. Motivated by this conviction, I embarked on a resolute journey of professional growth. At the age of 41, I made the courageous choice to pursue further education, equipping myself with the expertise to extend support not only to children but also to individuals across diverse age groups and familial dynamics.

With a steadfast commitment to holistic wellness, my aspiration as a naturopathic practitioner transcends conventional boundaries. I am driven by the imperative to empower parents, particularly those navigating the intricate terrain of raising children with special needs, with actionable insights and transformative interventions. Through a comprehensive approach rooted in nutritional science, I endeavor to foster resilience, vitality, and well-being among individuals of all ages, heralding a paradigm shift towards sustained health and vitality.


My purpose became unequivocally defined: to facilitate the healing, education, and guidance of individuals and families in their pursuit of balance across all dimensions of life. I maintain a steadfast conviction in the efficacy of appropriate nutrition and targeted supplementation as formidable tools in the realm of medicine, capable of remedying bodily ailments and addressing the multifaceted facets of our well-being.
