Your doctor is handling the diagnosis.
Together we'll give your body the foundation to respond, recover, and rebuild.
Foundations First is a one-month intensive protocol for people navigating a diagnosis, a roadblock in their medical care, or a chronic condition that isn't responding to treatment alone.
I work alongside your medical team, not around them. While they address what's acute and immediate, I look at what your body needs to respond better, recover faster, and function from a stronger place.
This is for you if you've just received a diagnosis and have no idea what to eat.
You're on medications and you're scared to take anything else without knowing what it will do.
You've been managing a chronic condition for years, doing everything your doctor says, and something still isn't right.
You went looking for answers and got handed a prescription instead.
You don't need to figure out the herbs, the supplements, and the dietary protocol on your own while also processing a diagnosis. That's not your job. It's mine.
One month. Four weekly calls. Active, responsive support the entire time.
A comprehensive written intake before your first call, so we spend our time building your protocol, not gathering basic information.
A two-phase herbal protocol calibrated to your condition, your medications, and where your body is right now. I know the difference between when you need something as gentle as ginger and when you need something as targeted as Oil of Oregano. That call is never arbitrary.
A personalized one-month dietary protocol built around your specific situation with a possible mid-month update as your body responds and your needs shift.
A grocery guide and food list specific to your protocol so you're not standing in the store trying to remember what you can and can't have.
A symptom tracker we review together every week so neither of us loses sight of what was happening at the start or how far you've come.
A Session Summary and Support Recommendations delivered in writing within 24 hours of every call. Not a prescription. A clear, personal summary of what we discussed and what I'm recommending based on where you are right now. You'll always have it in writing.
A collaborative care summary at the end of the month if you'd like something to share with your doctor or specialist outlining the nutritional and herbal support you received.
Every recommendation I make is built around your specific condition, your specific medications, and your specific body. I hold certification in herb-drug interactions, which means before I suggest anything, I've already checked whether it's safe alongside what you're already taking.
Think of me as the doula model of nutrition coaching. A doula doesn't deliver the baby. The doctor does. But the doula prepares the body, holds the space, and improves outcomes in ways the clinical team simply doesn't have time for.
That's what I do here. I prepare the terrain so your body can meet your treatment with everything it has.
I don't hand you a generic plan and wish you luck.
Let me be clear about my role.
I am not your doctor. I don't diagnose, treat, or prescribe. I work within my scope as a certified functional nutrition coach with advanced training in herbal support and herb-drug interactions.
What I do is build the nutritional and herbal foundation that supports your body while your medical team handles the clinical side. These two things are not in conflict. They were always meant to work together.
The first step is a free discovery call. We'll talk about what you're dealing with, whether Foundations First is the right fit, and what working together would actually look like. No pressure and no obligation.
But if you've been waiting for someone who will actually look at the full picture, this might be it.
You've been managing this alone long enough.
