Clients Wins & Testimonials
“Working with Vanessa has truly enhanced my daily life. Before working with Vanessa I had worked with different types of professionals, tried so many different "IBS" related programs and protocols, and read so many books to find aide for my painful stomach aches and PMS symptoms.
I couldn't go out with my friends without knowing there was an exit route in case I had to go home and lay down because of stomach pain. I truly feel the best I've ever felt since I was a teenager. Vanessa listened to my chronic challenges and created an individual plan of care for me. Previously, I would get stomach pains that felt like knives in my stomach at a frequency of 1-5 times a week. I now haven't had a painful stomach ache in over a month! We also worked to expand my diet and work through my anxiety over food due to the fear of getting a painful stomach ache. She is thoughtful and incredibly caring of her patients. I can't stop recommending her to everyone I know.”
-Natalie, client with IBS
“Since working with Vanessa, I have had more symptomatic free days than I have ever had. I no longer have emergency bathroom runs or quick moving bowels with no trigger or reason why. I now have very regular bowel movements (twice a day!) and am living with no stomach pains or pangs. Through supplement use and guidance from Vanessa, I have also eliminated my daily nausea and acid reflux. I have loved every moment I have gotten to work with Vanessa. Every meeting feels very personal and educational. I am moving on from working with Vanessa with a whole new idea about what nutrition is and how food is so much more than just what we eat. I appreciate how natural all the supplements she prescribed were and how easy she made taking supplements with a guided schedule. Vanessa is so understanding and really listens to your symptoms and trepidations you may have with supplements and protocols. I truly feel that she has changed my life and made me see that there is a possibility for a symptom free life.”
-Grace, client with GERD and gut issues
“Vanessa has been so great, kind, and personable. I had several blood labs come back with less than optimal results, I was feeling constantly fatigued, having GI issues, and general confusion around what to eat to make me feel better. After about 6 months working with Vanessa, my labs have dramatically improved, I have more energy, my GI issues have resolved, and I feel so much more confidence around my food choices!”
-Leenie, client with inflammation and gut issues
“Before attending my first year of college, I considered myself to be in great health and was extremely happy with my quality of life. However, with the major lifestyle changes that occurred during that first year, I left school facing issues I had never experienced before, such as constant bloating and inflammation, frequent acne breakouts, as well as mental health issues such as anxiety and insomnia. I was referred to Vanessa through a family friend, and began working with her in hope of finding a solution that could return me to my previous health. After completing various tests and labs to understand what was going on within my body, we were able to address my issues with lifestyle changes and supplements which ultimately were successful. In addition to resolving my initial concerns, I was also able to experience things I would have never thought I could do, such as eating dairy again after years of living without it.
Working with Vanessa actually changed my life, and I am so incredibly grateful that I had the opportunity to work with her to get my health back on track. I can not recommend her enough and highly encourage people to work with her to understand the root cause of their health issues.”
-Ethan, client with bloating, inflammation, and acne
“Vanessa was the only practitioner I spoke with who took my concerns and thoughts about my eczema seriously, and she was also the only one who seemed interested in understanding what might be causing it. She worked with me to address it from a number of angles--nutrition, functional testing, elimination diet, and supplement protocols. We shifted strategies depending on my budget and what was or wasn't working. The whole time, Vanessa explained WHY we were doing what we were doing. As someone who needs to understand the "why" and "how," this was so important for me to be motivated. The process has been long and really challenging, but I've healed and learned so much in the two-ish years I've been working with Vanessa. I'm really grateful to be working with someone who is both incredibly smart and kind.”
-Julia, client with eczema
“A friend recommended Vanessa as a nutritionist. At first I negated the idea thinking I was in pretty good health. However, wanting to be proactive, I thought it would not hurt so I decided to work with her. Well to say it has been life changing is an understatement. I think I never really knew what feeling really good was until after the blood tests and analysis she did on those for me. I feel, like the old phrase says, a million dollars. I highly recommend her. She is very knowledgeable, easy to get in touch with and is genuinely concerned about her patients. I can not thank her enough for her time and awareness of what my body required and didn't require.”
-Carole, client who wanted to optimize her health
“Vanessa is smart and willing to put the time in to help your health. She listens to what you are experiencing, makes a plan for you, and through trials she fine tunes the protocol. In my case she reviewed my testing from my doctor and ordered additional testing (not through my doctor). That was the best thing I could have done! She was able to have the tools needed to help me fix my leaky gut and improve my health overall. My immune system is back to where it was, my brain fog is gone, my stomach is doing great. Total 180 from where I was! I appreciate her wisdom, and will always recommend her to anyone who may be experiencing some health problems.”
-Nicholas, client with gut issues
“Vanessa's expertise as a nutritionist has been life-changing for me. Suffering from acid reflux, bloating, and cramping, I felt hopeless until I got guidance from her! She not only pinpointed the root causes of my discomfort, debunking a misdiagnosed avocado allergy, but also taught me invaluable lessons about healthy eating and fostered a positive mindset towards food. Thanks to her guidance, I've not only alleviated my symptoms but have also developed a healthier relationship with food. I couldn't recommend Vanessa more highly.”
-Bianca, client with GERD and food sensitivities
“We managed my cortisol to a point where I feel that I have much more control over my stress levels and the way it has impacted my day-to-day! Constipation and bowel irregularity is ALL BETTER! Such a relief and helps me feel so normal. My periods are back on a consistent cycle and each period is back to the way it was years ago before taking birth control. Inflammation and body composition has improved tremendously. I finally feel like my body is looking, moving, and feeling the way it really should. It has been a long time since I have felt this way and I feel so happy to finally be at a place where I feel healthy and happy!
Vanessa is extremely helpful, personable, kind, and knowledgeable. I always felt comfortable and confident with her supplement prescriptions and recommendations. Vanessa was always willing to make sure I felt comfortable with the methods we were using to test and improve my symptoms versus and "all or nothing" approach. I have recommended Vanessa to many of my friends and I will continue to speak highly of her amazing work!”
-Ali, client with constipation, high cortisol, and inflammation
“Before working with Vanessa, I had never consulted a nutritionist, so I approached the experience with caution and curiosity. Still, I was eager to begin.
I struggled with fatigue, digestive issues, and food sensitivities, and I wanted to understand what was happening in my body. We started with foundational changes, but when I needed deeper insights, we ran tests—and I’m so glad we did! The results revealed specifics that, despite months of clean eating, I never would have discovered on my own.
Thanks to Vanessa’s guidance, I now feel more in tune with my body and understand what triggers my symptoms. I no longer feel anxious when something feels off; instead, I have the tools to restore balance and feel my best again.”
-Kathie, client with fatigue, digestive issues, and food sensitivities
