Hello!
I'm Alex, a Holistic Nutritionist and Functional Medicine Practitioner specializing in women's health.
For the past 10+ years, I've worked with women navigating hormones, burnout, digestion, pregnancy, postpartum, and menopause.
My approach blends nutrition, functional medicine, behavior change, and real-life needs to help women better understand their bodies and build sustainable habits that actually fit into their lives.
My Interest in Women’s Health is Also Personal
For years, I thought I was doing everything “right.” I was immersed in the fitness world, disciplined with my nutrition, and committed to my health but behind the scenes I was struggling with anxiety, body dysmorphia, gut issues, a missing menstrual cycle, and disordered eating that felt normal in that environment.
I kept looking for answers, but often left appointments with more questions than I came in with.
After coming off birth control, I lost my cycle for over two years. Even after restoring it and improving my gut health, I later experienced painful ovarian cysts that sent me to the hospital more than once.
All at the same time, I was studying nutrition, functional medicine, and behavior change, and started applying what I was learning directly to my own health.
This is where I learned how important simple, foundational habits are for our body to feel truly good.
My education, client work, and personal health experiences deepened my curiosity about the body and how interconnected everything is. It’s a big part of why I focus on helping women understand what’s happening beneath their symptoms and support their health in a more simple, foundational way.
How I Work
What I've learned, both personally and professionally, is that most women don't need more information.
We need help understanding our body and support applying it in a way that fits real life.
My approach focuses on simple, sustainable habits around nutrition, movement, sleep, and stress management.
No perfection. No extremes.
Just realistic support that helps you better understand your body and feel more like yourself again.
Experience
Over the past 10+ years, I've worked with hundreds of individuals across a wide range of health goals and life stages.
I've supported women navigating:
• Hormonal imbalances and cycle concerns
• PMS, PCOS, and fertility journeys
• Pregnancy and postpartum recovery
• Perimenopause and menopause
• Digestive issues and gut health like IBS, SIBO, constipation, etc…
• Burnout, stress, and low energy
• Sustainable weight loss and body composition goals
• Building healthier relationships with food and exercise
Do you want to feel like yourself again?
We can do it together.
Education
I believe in keeping health simple.
My goal is to make wellness feel more understandable, supportive, and sustainable for real women living real lives.
