Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently asked questions

General

Do you accept insurance?

No, I do not accept insurance. I can provide you with a superbill, similar to an itemized receipt, so you can try to get reimbursement from your health insurance company, Healthcare Savings Account (HSA), or Flexible Spending Account (FSA). Please let me know if you need this before we start working together.

Do you work with clients that have an eating disorder?

If you have an active eating disorder or are newer in your healing journey, you would be best served by another provider who specializes in eating disorders. I do work with people who have experienced eating disorders in the past and are further along in their healing journey.

What is trauma-informed care?

A trauma-informed approach to care acknowledges how trauma impacts a person’s wellbeing while also aiming to avoid retraumatization. Some of the main principles of trauma-informed care include safety, collaboration, trustworthiness, empowerment, and humility. There is no other way to work with and connect with others, in my opinion! You can read more here.

What is integrative and functional nutrition?

Integrative nutrition focuses on the client’s story and works with other disciplines (e.g. therapists, physical medicine, acupuncture) to support optimal health. For example, I might recommend you connect with a mental health therapist to explore a pain point that shows up in our session. Functional nutrition aims to identify the underlying causes of health problems while providing personalized nutrition recommendations based on your lab work, lifestyle and health history. No more one-size-fits-all treatment plans!

Attuned and Thriving Program - Group Coaching

What if I cannot attend a session?

You're welcome to attend the other women’s group that same week. If you can’t make either class times, you will have access to group session recordings posted in your virtual community ideally within 2-3 days of live class.

How do I choose the right group for me?

When you register, you’ll choose the day and time that best fits your schedule. You’ll be assigned to that group as your “home” group for the full program. While occasional flexibility is available, you’ll be expected to attend your home group the majority of the time. This consistency helps build trust and connection within your cohort.

I’m not sure I’ll have time for this. How much time should I expect to commit?

The core time commitment is one 90-minute live session every other week, plus 30–60 minutes in between for personal practice, optional resources, and check-ins in the private community. You’re encouraged to engage at a pace that’s sustainable for you.

How long will I have access to the program content?

You’ll have access to all session recordings, handouts, and optional learning resources until January 31, 2026 at 11:59 PM PST. After that time, access to the virtual community and shared materials will close.

To make the most of your experience, you’re encouraged to download and save any handouts, worksheets, or resources you’d like to keep well before that date.

If you're looking for continued support after the program ends, there may be an opportunity to join an exclusive alumni membership called The Attuned & Thriving Community – Nourishing the Next Chapter. This offering is still in development, and details will be shared with participants once available.

Is this program therapy?

No. This is a health coaching and education program, not a substitute for therapy, mental health treatment, or medical care. However, it can be an excellent adjunct to those services. Because Attuned & Thriving is action-focused and grounded in practical tools, it complements therapy or clinical care by helping you apply insights through real-life behavior change, habit-building, and personalized self-care strategies.

I’m a parent—can this program help me support my child’s stress or well-being?

Attuned & Thriving is not a parenting or child-focused program. Instead, it’s designed to help you—as a parent—understand and manage your own stress, emotions, and health patterns with more clarity and compassion.

When you care for yourself in a sustainable and intentional way, you naturally expand your capacity to support others. The changes you make can positively influence your children, partner, and wider community.

If you're feeling overwhelmed or guilty for focusing on yourself, know this: caring for yourself isn't selfish. It's necessary. Your own well-being is the foundation for how you care for others, and it may be the missing piece if you've been struggling to support your child’s health and emotional needs.

Do I need to identify as AAPI to join?

This group program is intentionally designed to center the lived experiences of AAPI women balancing their career with motherhood. If you do not identify with this, ALIGN (LINK) would be a more appropriate and inclusive path for you to receive personalized support.

What if I need more personalized support or have multiple medical concerns I want to address?

Attuned & Thriving is a group health coaching program designed to help you build sustainable lifestyle habits and reduce stress within a supportive community.

If you're managing complex digestive symptoms, multiple medical concerns, or want individualized guidance, consider ALIGN, my signature private program that delivers a personalized experience that blends holistic health coaching with functional nutrition.

ALIGN is a 6-month, one-on-one program that includes functional lab testing, nutritional supplement guidance, personalized nutrition and lifestyle planning, and deep support through private sessions and messaging between visits. If you're unsure which path is right for you, feel free to reach out—I'd be happy to help you decide.

The ALIGN Program - Individual Personalized Care

Why do you only offer a 6 month package and not individual sessions?

This program was intentionally built this way because if you have dealt with years, even decades, of digestive issues and/or chronic stress, a couple sessions are not enough to get the long term relief and resilience you are looking for. It took years for you to get where you are, so it will take time to learn what your body needs, rebuild supportive habits, and create adaptive strategies so you feel confident moving through different challenges of life.

This sounds like exactly what I need, but I’m still on the fence about the commitment. What should I do?

Hope often intersects with fear, especially when you have been dealing with issues for a long time. That is totally normal! To ensure you feel confident about making this decision, I have a 30 day guarantee policy. If you decide that we are not a good fit working together in 30 days, then you will have the option to exit our working agreement. So, what are you waiting for?

Do you accept insurance?

No, I do not accept insurance. I can provide you with a superbill, similar to an itemized receipt, so you can try to get reimbursement from your health insurance company or Healthcare Savings Account (HSA). Please let me know if you need this before working with me.

Can I work with you if I do not live in the state of California, Georgia, or Florida?

I am only able to provide medical nutrition therapy to those living in California, Georgia, and Florida at this time. This involves providing tailored diet and nutrition supplement recommendations based on specific health conditions, and ordering and reviewing of lab work. If you live in a different state or out of the country and still want to work together to building foundational healthy practices around food habits, physical activity, stress management, and sleep, then please contact me directly via website.
