Welcome,

If you've been searching for answers & still don't feel like yourself, you're in the right place. My mission is to help women uncover the root causes of their symptoms so they can regain their energy, restore their health, and embrace the abundant life God created them to live.

Start using my complimentary ALIGN Tool to begin restoring your mind, body, and spirit. 

What is Functional Medicine?

As noted by the Institute for Functional Medicine, “Functional medicine seeks to identify and address the root causes of disease, rather than just treating the symptoms.”  As a Functional Medicine Practitioner, my goal is to address the root causes of your challenges and provide personalized, effective care for your needs.  I offer an integrative approach highlighting the significance of nourishing the mind, body, and spirit.

“I cannot recommend Rachel enough! Her eagerness to improve my health is rare and her methods work! Rachel has guided me to miraculous results with my blood sugar. Having struggled with issues using insulin and weight gain for decades, I was at the end of my rope. Rachel listened carefully to determine a plan that addressed my health in body, mind and spirit. In 2 months I saw results I had never attained before. Thank you, Rachel! The results are improving every area of my health.”

Hi Friend,

I'm Rachel, a Registered Nurse, Board-Certified Functional Medicine Practitioner, wife, mom, and follower of Jesus. For over twenty years, I've cared for people in a variety of healthcare settings, but I often found myself wanting to offer something more than symptom management.

​​

Through my own health journey and years of caring for others, I discovered the power of looking beyond the symptoms to uncover the root causes of illness.  Today, I am passionate about helping women who are tired of being told everything is "normal" while they continue to struggle with fatigue, hormone imbalances, weight loss resistance, gut issues, mold and Lyme illness, and other chronic symptoms.

My approach combines functional medicine, lifestyle medicine, personalized wellness coaching, and faith-centered encouragement. It would be an honor to walk alongside you as you experience restored health, renewed hope, and the abundant life God created you to live.
