My work combines education in functional nutrition, ancient sciences such as Traditional Chinese Medicine and Ayurveda, health coaching, and integrative practices to view you as a whole person and develop a strategy that makes sense for your life.
In practice, my work includes:
Listening and Investigation
We begin by understanding your history, daily routine, symptoms, and goals, while also taking into account your emotions, conflicts, relationships, and the environment in which you live.
A Tailored Strategy
Based on what we heard, we worked together to develop a plan that includes sustainable changes to lifestyle habits.
Nutrition Education
You'll learn to understand how food affects your body and to make more mindful choices, without restrictive diets or ready-made formulas.
Habits that Promote Good Health
Sleep, exercise, stress management, and relaxation techniques, introduced gradually and at your own pace.
Close monitoring
Regular meetings to assess progress, celebrate achievements, and adjust the strategy as needed.
Networking
I work in partnership with doctors, nutritionists, dentists, and therapists to ensure that your care is comprehensive and safe.
Autonomy for a Lifetime
The ultimate goal is for you to gain the independence to take care of your own health, long after our time together has ended.
Because, often, you already know what you need to change. My job is to help you figure out how to make that happen.
Transparency Regarding My Work
My work complements medical care; it does not replace it. I do not make diagnoses, prescribe medications, or advise you to stop treatments prescribed by your doctor. When necessary, I will refer you to partner healthcare professionals. If you are taking medications, please talk to your doctor before starting any treatment.
Customers in the U.S.
I am not a licensed physician. The services I offer are in the field of functional and integrative health. They are complementary to licensed healthcare services and are not licensed by the State of California. Before we begin, you will receive a document with information about my background and my approach to practice.
Customers in Brazil
I do not prescribe medications or diets. When appropriate, I may suggest over-the-counter dietary supplements as part of your strategy, always advising you to inform your doctor. For other needs, I refer you to partner doctors, nutritionists, or therapists.
