"I worked with Amy on and off for about a year. My primary goals were to lower my cholesterol, improve my A1c score, decrease heartburn, and learn healthy, scientifically sound lifestyle habits. Amy is kind and non-judgmental, gives realistic advice, and supports small, sequential changes. I appreciated all her help and support and recommend her expertise to anyone wanting to learn about the science and connections between eating, movement, and sleep."

Is Your GUT HEALTH Telling You Something?
Did you know these symptoms may be connected to what’s happening in your gut?
Your gut microbiome communicates with your immune system, hormones, brain and metabolism. This means your gut health may be at the center of some much bigger health issues like insulin resistance, inflammation and metabolic syndrome.
Personalized nutritional counseling can help connect the dots. It’s not just your diet but a bigger picture. This includes your symptoms, health history, nutrition, lifestyle and goals.
Nutritional counseling and your registered dietitian nutritionist are there to optimize your gut health so you can enjoy:
Better Digestion
Find out exactly what your body needs to thrive! Plus, feel more comfortable after eating a nutritionally optimal diet and ditch the post-meal bathroom rush.
Steadier Energy
Build a stronger nutritional foundation to support consistent energy throughout your day. No more mid-afternoon crashes.
Optimal Metabolic Health
Balanced Hormonal Health
Explore the connection between nutrition, gut health and hormone related symptoms like heavy or painful periods.
Clearer Thinking
Changing habits and attaining optimal health is hard—and even harder alone.
Whether you’re trying to lose weight, eat healthier, or achieve other related health goals, it can feel like there’s an infinite amount of advice out there.
Some of it is conflicting, and it’s hard to know what’s trustworthy nutritional counseling in the first place.
Maybe you’ve subscribed to a diet plan or followed a particular guru or fitness program, but you’re always wondering: does this even apply to me?
And when it’s time to follow through with a plan…there’s no one holding you accountable. You end up feeling aimless, alone, and wondering what’s the point of continuing.

Nutritional Counseling & Health Coaching
The initial consultation will include a deep dive into a patient’s specific health and lifestyle assessment, a discussion of their barriers to change, and nutrition recommendations to help the patient reach their goals.
Follow-up visits will hold the patient accountable for their goals and continue nutrition education.
Initial consultation (50- minutes) $120
Follow-up (30-minutes) $65
Group sessions (1 hour weekly) are a chance for patients to share wins and challenges from the week in a group setting, ask the registered dietitian additional questions, and gain feedback from peers that have similar health goals.

Frequently Asked Questions
A registered dietitian nutritionist (RDN), also known as a registered dietitian (RD), is a credentialed healthcare professional who applies evidence-based information about nutrition and diet to contribute to the health and wellness of individuals, groups, and communities.
All dietitians are nutritionists, but not all nutritionists are dietitians. The difference between these two professions is the type of training each receives and their scope of practice.
In addition to the RD training, a registered dietitian who holds the Integrative and Functional Nutrition Certified Practitioner (IFNCP) credential has completed five tracks (over 24 months) of functional and integrative nutrition training on a wide array of topics (including gastrointestinal disorders, cardiovascular disease, obesity and weight management, metabolic detoxification, and more), passed the IFNCP exam, and kept up with ongoing education to maintain the certification.
Due to their education and licensure, it is within a registered dietitian’s scope of practice to provide Medical Nutrition Therapy for specific health conditions and chronic illnesses. With these combined certifications, an RD with a functional background will not only focus on your particular health condition but help you to find and address the root cause.
Yes! At Synergy Integrative Health & Wellness, our registered dietitian nutritionist (RDN) holds advanced certification in Integrative and Functional Nutrition, which means she looks beyond calorie counts and meal plans to address the whole person—mind, body, and lifestyle.
Because of this specialized training, she is uniquely qualified to provide health coaching that helps clients turn nutrition knowledge into lasting change. Her approach blends science-based nutrition therapy with supportive coaching strategies to help you:
Understand and overcome barriers to healthy habits
Build sustainable routines for nutrition, movement, sleep, and stress management
Identify root causes of fatigue, cravings, or metabolic imbalance
Feel empowered to make changes that support your long-term well-being
In other words, she doesn’t just tell you what to eat—she helps you understand why and how to make it work in real life.
Yes! Weight loss is not as simple as “calories in–calories out.” It involves optimizing the functioning of your entire body. Your registered dietitian will look at the types of food and beverages you’re consuming along with your meal timing, sleep patterns, exercise patterns, stress level, and more to help you achieve your weight loss goals. If you have stubborn weight loss, your team can help look at the root cause, which may involve poor gut health, blood sugar imbalance, and/or hormonal shifts.
Not necessarily. RDNs can also help individuals with goals such as longevity, exercise performance, food allergies, and intolerances, increasing energy levels, improving sleep, and more. RDNs can also help individuals improve their relationship with food through intuitive eating principles if desired.
Yes! Research shows that your microbiome provides over 90% of our total body serotonin, a hormone that creates a long-lasting feeling of happiness or well-being. For this reason and many others, what we eat is directly linked to mental health.
Absolutely. Just as in Western medicine, integrative and functional nutrition is evidence-based and makes recommendations based on the outcomes of randomized controlled trials.
