At Whole Story Health, we believe in taking an educative and personalized approach to your health. It's not just about treating symptoms but understanding the full picture of your health and well-being. Let's work together to uncover the whole story of your health journey.
About Whole Story Health
Welcome to Whole Story Health, an innovative and exclusive health consulting practice that is proudly nurse-led! Our mission is to provide you with not only more time but also a comprehensive education about your health. By gaining a deeper understanding of your body and health, you can take greater control over your health outcomes and truly embrace your healthiest self.
We believe that many individuals have a strong desire to understand their health better. Yet, they often find themselves lacking the necessary education and insight into the "why" behind their health journey. In today’s society, it’s all too common to rely on quick fixes, such as medications, for every issue. Our goal is to empower you to think about your health circumstances and make informed decisions.
With my extensive nursing experience and training in nutrition and functional medicine I am passionate about helping you uncover and understand your unique health story. My aim is to equip you with the essential tools and valuable insights you need to navigate your health story with confidence and clarity. Together, we can pave the way toward a healthier more vibrant you!
Whole Story's Philosophy
Root Cause Approach
Discovering the underlying cause of your concerns is what sets my approach apart. I've learned that health is rarely straightforward. Uncovering the root of the issue requires time, effort, and thoughtful analysis to piece together your whole story.
​
Whole Story specializes in metabolic syndromes like pre-diabetes, diabetes and high blood pressure. We also tackle weight loss resistance, balancing hormones, stress response management, HPA axis evaluation, gut health, auto-immune conditions and nutrition.
Detailed Intake Process
I conduct in-depth investigations of your history, symptoms, nutrition status, lifestyle and labwork to help us develop a blueprint of your whole story. Looking at labwork in a more detailed way is part of what makes my method unique. I am looking for clues related to all body systems and not a specific range for a medication target. Before we meet, you provide me with a detailed intake questionnaire so I can prepare for our appointment.
​
Functional lab testing such as GI Mapping, Dutch Hormone Testing, Organic Acids Test and Nutrient Evaluations are available.
Functional Medicine and Nutrition-Focused
Often referred to as "root cause medicine," functional medicine allows me to view you as a whole person rather than isolated systems. Your brain interacts with your nervous system, which connects to your heart, and so forth—each part influences the others. Therefore, it's crucial to evaluate you in your entirety, not just in parts.
