My mission is to empower every family I meet with the tools to be successful in managing their children’s nutritional wellness to combat PICKY EATING. I have created my programs because I know what it is like to struggle with your child's health and feel like the treatment options are just not working.​

 

I am a nutrition specialist with over 25 years of experience as well as a Functional Consultant Certification working with children and their families. I know what it is like to follow the recommendations from your child's healthcare team and feel like nothing is improving. You have probably stayed up at night searching the internet or Facebook to find guidance and solutions from other families with similar experiences and see words like Autism, ADHD, ODD, MTHFR Gene, Methylation, Sensory, Dyspraxia, and the list goes on. Each one of these terms you see takes you down a rabbit hole with no answers that leaves you feeling frustrated and helpless in finding help.​

 

I have created The NuTRISHA Nexus which is a 6-month program working with me 1:1 that focuses on how nutrition affects our children with picky eating, foodsensitivities, reflux, and constipation.  You may be thinking 6 months is a long time and would like a solution now, but every child is different, and it is important to accurately identify what is causing the symptoms we can see, the symptoms we can’t see and individualize an intentional plan specific to your child and your family.  It also then allows for time to implement the strategies specific to your child so you feel confident that we have addressed these concerns and feel confident when the 6 months ends.

 

​I know what you are thinking…. “I don’t want to have blood tests to look at foodsensitivities/ irritants that may be causing some of these.  They might be helpful, but I just don’t want to put my child through that.”  As a mom, I totally understand!  While you will have the option of blood testing that I can set up if you are comfortable with that, we will also be able to identify a large majority of these items from stool, urine, saliva, and hair testing… bet you haven’t heard that from your other health care providers before.
