Hi, I’m Sara — and my path to specializing in gut health began with a mother’s determination and a life-changing journey that reshaped my purpose.

In 2001, my son was diagnosed with autism. I was ready to support him with all the love and resources I could find. But two years later, he began experiencing debilitating gastrointestinal symptoms — relentless pain, inflammation, and no clear answers.

We pursued every medical avenue available: specialists, colonoscopies, endoscopies, allergy panels, blood work. Despite our efforts, we were left with uncertainty and no actionable diagnosis. Watching my child suffer without relief was heartbreaking — and deeply disempowering.

That moment became a turning point. I made the decision to bring him home from the hospital and took matters into my own hands. I began studying nutrition, elimination diets, and the intricate connection between the gut and the brain. With meticulous care, I tracked his reactions, identified triggers, and slowly helped his system begin to heal. It wasn’t easy — but it was powerful.

Through that experience, I came to understand something science now confirms: the gut is not just a digestive organ — it’s the foundation of physical, mental, and even emotional health. Over 70% of the immune system resides in the gut. The gut-brain axis directly influences mood, behavior, and cognitive function. And when the gut is inflamed or imbalanced, the entire body feels it.

I was driven to learn more — not just to help my son, but to empower others. I became certified through the Institute for Integrative Nutrition and the Functional Medicine Coaching Academy, where I deepened my knowledge of systems biology, functional lab testing, and root-cause healing. These tools gave me the scientific foundation to complement the lived wisdom I had gained through experience.

In the early years of my practice, I supported families with non-verbal children on the autism spectrum, many facing the same digestive struggles we had. Over time, my work expanded. Today, I specialize in gut health and integrative wellness, helping clients around the world unravel the complex web of symptoms that conventional medicine often overlooks — from SIBO and mold illness to food sensitivities, fatigue, hormonal imbalances, and more.

My approach is both science-led and soul-centered. I combine advanced testing and targeted protocols with deep listening, compassion, and collaboration. Healing isn’t just about reducing symptoms — it’s about rebuilding trust with your body, reclaiming your energy, and learning how to nourish yourself at every level.

If you’ve been dismissed, gaslit, or told your labs are “normal” even when you don’t feel well — I see you. I’ve been there. And I’m here to help.

Together, we’ll uncover what’s holding you back — and help you move forward with clarity, resilience, and renewed vitality.
