What is Functional Medicine Nurse Coaching?

Functional medicine is a patient-centered approach to healthcare that focuses on identifying and addressing the root causes of diseases and health issues. As a Registered Nurse with a coaching certification in functional health, I can review your history and symptoms and order relevant lab testing under a provider's license to gain insight into what your body is trying to tell you and begin the path to healing. This approach aims to promote optimal health and wellness by providing personalized treatment plans, which may include nutrition, exercise, stress management, and other lifestyle changes. I look forward to working with you to help you achieve positive long-term health outcomes!

About Me

Hi! My name is Kelly and I am an RN, Board Certified Functional Nurse Health Coach residing in Southern California. My experience includes 8 years of bedside nursing in a large county hospital as well as 8 years in the fitness industry as a former CrossFit gym owner and CF-L1 trainer.

My experiences have led me to see first-hand the differences between relying on pharmaceuticals vs. lifestyle changes in areas of metabolic health. While modern medicine is absolutely essential for many important services, there are many disease processes that can be fully reversed through lifestyle changes.

My specific interests are monitoring and reversing metabolic disease (blood sugar dysfunction, cardiovascular disease, nutrient deficiencies and more) as well as women's health and hormones. However, I am always up for a challenge and ready for a deep dive into getting to the root cause of any mysterious symptoms!

If your medical condition requires specific dietary guidance, please consult the services of a dietician.

I encourage anyone with insurance to investigate what is covered and what is not in conjunction with their primary care provider's services.
