FAQ

  • What’s the difference between a Certified Nutrition Specialist (CNS) and a Registered Dietitian (RD)?

    Registered Dietitians (RDs) typically hold a bachelor’s or master’s degree in dietetics or nutrition and complete a dietetic internship. They are credentialed by the Commission on Dietetic Registration (CDR) and often work in clinical, hospital, or institutional settings.

    Certified Nutrition Specialists (CNS) must earn a master’s or doctoral degree in nutrition or a clinical health field, complete at least 1,000 hours of supervised practice, and pass a rigorous board exam administered by the American Nutrition Association (ANA).

    My credentials: I am a Certified Nutrition Specialist (CNS) and hold a Master of Science in Clinical Nutrition. I’ve completed over 1,000 supervised clinical hours and specialize in functional, root-cause nutrition approaches to women’s health — including hormone balance, gut health, and adrenal support. The CNS credential is a nationally recognized certification that qualifies me to provide personalized medical nutrition therapy in many states.

  • Do you only work with people who have PCOS or hormone imbalances?

    While I specialize in women’s hormonal health, I also support clients navigating gut health issues, adrenal dysfunction, skin problems (like acne or inflammation), blood sugar balance, and general wellness goals. If you're unsure whether we're a fit, feel free to book a discovery call.

  • Are your services virtual or in person?

    All services are 100% virtual. I work with clients across the U.S. via a secure, HIPAA-compliant platform, so you can get support from the comfort of your home.

  • What can I expect from working with you?

    I do not accept insurance at this time. However, many clients choose to use HSA/FSA funds. I can also provide superbills upon request for you to submit to your provider.

  • How long will it take to see results?

    Everyone’s body is different. Some clients begin to notice shifts in energy, digestion, or skin within a few weeks, while others with more complex imbalances may take several months. Healing is not linear — but we’ll track your progress every step of the way.

  • Can you help with lab testing?

    Yes. I can guide you in interpreting conventional lab work or recommend advanced functional testing (like GI-MAP, DUTCH, or hormone panels) when appropriate. Testing is not required but can provide helpful insight.

  • Do you work with teens or young adults?

    Yes — I work with women of all ages, including teens and young adults experiencing early hormonal imbalances, cycle irregularities, skin issues, or stress-related symptoms. A guardian may need to consent depending on age.
