Your gut is the foundation of your health and impacts every part of your body. Healing your gut issues is like putting together a complicated puzzle. You will get help sorting through different puzzle pieces and joining them in the right order. This will bring you more clarity about your bigger health picture.
“My biggest fear was to feel uncomfortable talking about my body issues and being judged. Elizabeth took away all fears from the beginning. She was very empathetic and understanding and I always had the feeling of being taken seriously.” - V.W.
My approach blends my knowledge in three critical areas: health at every size philosophy, functional nutrition, and health coaching. Clients have said that sessions can feel like “food therapy” because there can be a lot to unpack about food. Once we are able to understand what is going on below the surface, mentally and physically, we can create a path forward to help you thrive.

...What I thought were unbreakable patterns in my life actually had deeper roots underneath, which could be identified and reconstructed...[This work] was about rediscovering my relationship not only to food but to myself, and being open to new insights that could come from this type of deliberate mindfulness.”

You may have been told you have “normal labs” and nothing is wrong with you by your health provider, yet you feel fatigue, have digestive issues or a slew of other symptoms that you know is “not normal.” “Normal range” does not always mean “optimal health.” You need a more comprehensive assessment of your health and nutrition to help you get to the root cause of your issues. Here are tests I offer to help you better understand your body’s needs:
Functional Stool and Microbiome Analysis: This level of stool testing allows us to assess your digestive capacity, the balance of your good and bad bacteria in your gut, and if there are pathogens in your gut, all which can impact inflammation and disease risk. Learn more about these tests: GutZoomer, GI Effects.
Micronutrient Testing: Micronutrients include vitamins and minerals which are key to supporting metabolism and overall well-being. Typically your doctor’s office only checks a couple markers in your blood, but knowing the balance of vitamins, minerals and fatty acids in your blood and cells give us a more holistic picture of your nutrition status. Learn more here: Vibrant Micronutrients.
Food Sensitivity Testing: Certain foods can trigger a delayed immune response in the body which can lead to different symptoms. Testing can be helpful to identify foods that may be contributing to inflammation in your body. Learn more here: Vibrant Food Zoomers.
Nutritional Genomic Testing: Our genetics impact our metabolism, inflammation, detoxification, fitness, weight, hormones, and cognition. Having this unique information allows us to make personalized lifestyle recommendations that will help improve your health. Learn more about this test: 3x4 Genetics.
