My Story…

Hello! I'm Cecily - a functional nutritionist who specializes in root-cause healing, gut health, hormone imbalances and metabolic conditions.

My passion for digestive health, hormonal, and metabolic conditions stems from my experience with chronic health issues years ago. 

How it started…

I found myself in my early twenties experiencing a long list of health issues - fatigue, thyroid issues, digestive distress, PMS, poor sleep, skin issues, brain fog, and migraines. After hearing the same thing from doctors over and over, “your lab results came back normal” and “you appear to be in perfect health” I knew I had to take matters into my own hands which is how I found my way to functional medicine.

My turning point…

Through functional lab testing and other functional healing methods, I was able to reverse all of my symptoms and truly find freedom and happiness within my body. Seeing the power functional medicine had on my body and learning through the process made me realize this is what I was put on this earth to do, empower women and support women through functional medicine. 

I now serve people like you who are struggling to find answers to their health and find freedom in their bodies once and for all. I encourage you to tackle your health struggles from a functional perspective utilizing the right labs and techniques to help heal and support your body. It will be the best investment you will make in your life!

“I know firsthand what it’s like to not feel well and know that something’s not right and to be told, “Your labs are perfect, everything’s fine!”

  • “This has been a wonderful experience of self discovery. When I first started my journey I was frustrated because I felt bloated, sick and everything I was eating including all the good veggies and grains would hurt my stomach and lead to diarrhea. It was super helpful to have someone take charge and ask you the questions that get you in tune with how your body feels after eating certain foods. She is not judgemental or pushy, but will help you celebrate even the small wins. I am thankful that I found Cecily and I can move forward and not have food control me. This has been life changing!!!”

  • “Within a month of working with Cecily, my hormonal issues resolved, my bloating and stomach pains decreased, and my overall well being significantly improved. Something that stood out about Cecily was her dedication to get to the root of the problem. She spent time to understand when and why I had spikes in symptoms. Her nutrition plan was easy to understand, included recommended recipes, and aligned with things I already had in my kitchen. If you are considering discussing your situation with a health professional, Cecily is your woman!”

    Kelsey W.

  • “I absolutely loved working with Cecily. I did her 6 month program and it helped SO much with my energy, bloating and PMS. She did lab testing and talked me through all the imbalances I’ve been struggling with for years and how to best address each of them. I’ve been feeling more energetic, my skin is clearer and my periods are less painful. She is also super kind and supportive, and was really thoughtful about coming up with a plan that worked for me and met my needs. Can’t recommend her enough!”

    Arianne M.

  • “I cannot speak more highly of the positive impact Cecily has had on my overall health! I had tried everything for my stomach issues, and started to think I would have to live with them forever. I am so glad I gave her coaching a shot! Not only have my stomach issues resolved, but my overall energy is amazing. I can't remember a time feeling this great both physically and mentally!! Thank you SO much Cecily!!”

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Functional nutrition is a science-based, holistic approach which seeks to identify the root causes of symptoms and addresses underlying imbalances so that the client can achieve and maintain optimal health. Rooted in bio-individuality and understanding that every body is unique, all protocols are customized for the client’s current needs and include diet, mindset and lifestyle recommendations in order to promote optimal wellness. This is not a quick fix! True healing takes time.

  • To start to understand your symptoms at the root, we’ll start with an in-depth interview of your health and lifestyle habits, as well as incorporate functional lab testing to understand the full picture. Through these initial steps, we’ll get some amazingly helpful markers to determine where your body is. My goal is to get the full picture of your health as it is, right now. It’s about more than just the food you eat. We’ll talk about nutrition, habits, movement, exercise, sleep, stress-relieving activities, and more!

  • I take a bio-individualized, holistic approach with each client I see – there is no one-size fits all approach when it comes to this type of work. I work to restore clients’ health with a food-first approach while we work on bringing all areas of the body back into balance, along with functional lab testing. I believe that food IS medicine, and by eating nutrient-dense whole foods, making lifestyle changes and getting to the root cause of chronic health concerns, we can provide the nutrients and support our bodies are deeply craving to function optimally!

  • It all depends on the individual as everyone is very different. I work with clients for a minimum of 4 months. For many clients, 4-6 months is enough time to make long-term progress, but it can take longer depending on the individual which is why I offer my 6-month program, along with options to extend our time together for more chronic health concerns.

  • I accept HSAs and FSAs but I do not accept insurance. In some cases I can provide a superbill upon request for you to submit to insurance. In order for me to provide you with a superbill, you would need a referral from your primary physician.

  • Functional lab testing can provide us with a very deep understanding as to why dysfunction in the body is occurring, and is extremely effective in coming up with targeted strategies to restore balance and improve symptoms. Functional testing may include blood, stool, urine, saliva or hair samples (most of which can be completed in the privacy of your home) to provide information about a variety of systems including hormonal, gastrointestinal, metabolic, nutritional, immune, genetic, detoxification, and others.

  • Yes! I offer payment plans on both my 4-month and 6-month programs. Pricing starts at $633/month.

  • We will meet virtually through my HIPAA-compliant client portal called Practice Better.
