FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Pricing for my comprehensive, package-based care varies depending on the specific program and whether you're using insurance or opting for direct pay. Here’s what you should know: Tailored Packages: I offer structured care packages that deliver the best results through an integrated approach. Each package is designed to provide comprehensive, ongoing support rather than single appointments. Insurance Flexibility: I am in-network with many insurance companies and can also bill out-of-network for others. This allows flexibility based on your individual coverage. Personalized Consultation: I invite you to schedule a free call where we can discuss your specific needs, review the available packages, and explore your insurance options. This consultation helps ensure you find the right fit for your journey toward hormonal and overall wellness. Please contact me directly to discuss pricing details or to clarify any questions you may have about insurance options. I'm here to help you make informed decisions for your health, ensuring transparency and support every step of the way.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
When you work with me, you’re not just another appointment on the calendar—you’re a unique individual with your own story, concerns, and goals. I begin every new relationship by truly listening to you. Here’s what a typical nutrition appointment involves: Comprehensive Intake: We start with a detailed medical history, including your diet history and a review of your daily food intake. I also evaluate your lifestyle, covering aspects like sleep, movement, and stress, to get a full picture of your well-being. Active Listening: I prioritize understanding your specific needs and concerns, ensuring that every recommendation is tailored to the results you’re looking for. Personalized Recommendations: Based on our thorough discussion, I develop customized, science-based strategies to help balance your hormones and improve your overall health. Ongoing Support: My process isn’t a one-time fix. I’m committed to walking alongside you through each step of your journey, ensuring that you have the tools and guidance needed for lasting change. This patient-centered approach is designed to empower you, ensuring that your care is as unique and dynamic as you are.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I earned my Bachelor of Science in Nutrition with a pre-med focus from Bastyr University, where I initially intended to pursue a career as a Naturopathic Doctor. However, I soon discovered my true passion: using food as a powerful tool to manage health. This revelation led me to continue my studies at Bastyr, where I obtained my Master of Science in Nutrition/Didactic Program in Dietetics, specializing in Herbal Science and Culinary Arts. In addition, I expanded my expertise by becoming an Ayurvedic Wellness Consultant through training at the Kerala Ayurvedic Academy. Ayurveda, the ancient medical system from India, remains a vital part of my holistic approach today. I am committed to staying at the forefront of my field through continuous research, live trainings, and webinars, ensuring that I provide the most current, science-based guidance to my clients.
