Nutritional Therapy Tailored To Your Condition

You are not your condition. Labels such as depression, ADHD, and OCD are merely terms that describe underlying imbalances. Your emotions and mood have more to do with biology than you think!

I invite you to learn about a different approach to healing that looks at your genes, digestion, and inflammation as the root causes of your pain and suffering. Functional nutrition can help you where medication can’t, and Samantha will become an encouraging partner on your health journey.

Functional nutrition can help alleviate depression by identifying and addressing underlying nutrient imbalances and inflammation that may contribute to mood disturbances, offering a holistic approach to mental well-being.

In the case of OCD, functional nutrition focuses on optimizing gut health and neurotransmitter balance, potentially reducing obsessive-compulsive symptoms and promoting emotional equilibrium through targeted dietary adjustments.

For eating disorders, functional nutrition seeks to restore physical and mental health by addressing nutritional deficiencies, healing the gut, and providing tailored nutritional guidance, assisting individuals in their recovery journey.

Every year, research is making the connection between autism and gut health. Functional nutrition for autism centers on personalized dietary strategies that reduce inflammation, support neurodevelopment, and improve gastrointestinal health, potentially alleviating some of the behavioral and cognitive challenges associated with autism spectrum disorders.

Testimonials from Happy (and Healthy) Clients

Healing stories are powerful. Read some of the ways I’ve helped people over the years.

Ever since I met Sami I look and feel better than I have in years. I did her 90-day program and much of what I learned has changed what I eat and crave.
