The Nurse Coach | Your Nurse Coach

At The Nurse Coach, we believe that true healing begins with understanding the whole person—you. Your health is more than just a set of symptoms; it’s a dynamic story of your lifestyle, environment, and unique experiences.

As a Registered Nurse specializing in Nurse Coaching & Consulting, I offer a personalized, client-centered approach that integrates Lifestyle Medicine and Functional Medicine practices. My goal is to support you in achieving sustainable health and well-being by addressing the root causes of imbalance, rather than just managing symptoms.

What You’ll Find Here:

✨ Compassionate, evidence-based nursing care tailored to your needs

✨ Holistic coaching that empowers you to take control of your health

✨ Functional and lifestyle medicine strategies that fit within the RN scope of practice

✨ A collaborative approach—because you deserve to be an active participant in your health journey

Whether you’re seeking support for stress management, gut health, hormone balance, metabolic health, chronic disease prevention, or overall wellness, I’m here to help you

navigate your path with clarity, confidence, and care.

Let’s work together to create a plan that aligns with your values and goals. Your journey to better health starts here.
