As a trauma-informed integrative and functional dietitian, I do not treat weight issues in isolation since gut health and chronic stress levels are commonly root causes of inflammation, which contributors to weight change resistance. There is no quick fix especially if you’ve struggled with your weight (and/or digestive issues) for years.
Holistic weight management requires looking at the full picture, which includes:
I will help you identify root causes, make sense of your symptoms, and take steps toward your health goals. You are welcome to work with me if you are seeking highly personalized nutrition and lifestyle care.
Not at all! While many clients come to ALIGN with weight-specific issues, my approach of root-cause analysis and providing compassionate coaching to support healing is the same, whether it's addressing IBS, fatigue, anxiety, and metabolic disruptions like elevated blood sugar, and cholesterol. I take a whole-person approach when working with clients and investigate how your nutrition, stress, sleep, and lifestyle all impact your wellbeing. I will leave no stone unturned until you get answers!
No medical diagnosis or lab results are not required to join Attuned & Thriving. If you’re interested in my ALIGN program, please note the following:
ALIGN includes functional lab testing, targeted medical nutrition therapy for specific health conditions, and one-on-one holistic support. In order to participate in ALIGN and receive the full range of these services, you must reside in California, Georgia, or Florida, due to state licensure laws for Registered Dietitians.
If you live in California, you are also required to obtain a referral from a licensed healthcare provider (such as an MD, DO, NP, or psychiatrist) before we begin. Once you’ve completed a Resilience Strategy Session and decide to move forward, I’ll provide the referral form for your provider to complete and return—it's a quick and simple step to get started.
If you are unsure, simply book a Resilience Strategy Session so we can review what your needs are.
Start by asking yourself what kind of support you’re looking for. If you want a highly personalized, in-depth experience that includes lab testing, supplement guidance, and private health coaching tailored to your individual needs, ALIGN is the best fit.
If you’re looking for a structured, community-based program that helps you build habits to improve your energy, manage stress, and feel more grounded in daily life—and you identify as an AAPI woman trying to balance career and motherhood—then Attuned & Thriving would be the better match.
