For me, serving as a health coach means being a devoted advocate for your soul.
Whether you’ve been diagnosed with an autoimmune disease or have symptoms of chronic illness, these are outcomes of metabolic and cellular dysfunction and of the ongoing strain of our capitalist culture. Together, we will find ways to counterbalance the pressures and the drain that living in modern society has had on your body and your authentic being. I support individuals in navigating trauma, uncovering profound insight, reconnecting to their body’s inherent intelligence and revealing the beauty of their existence.
The aim of my work is all about helping you return to and reclaim wholeness, delight and feeling deeply nourished by your life. Together, we embrace a soulful approach to health, empowering clients to live fully alive, with peace and authenticity.
I am redefining health as soul work- as coming back to ourselves and to a sense of wholeness and deep presence no matter what the circumstances.
We will cook together and talk about nutrition and other practical self-care practices. I will help you design a unique and customized pathway back to health so that your body can feel like an ally in creating a fulfilling life. Approaching your healing from a soul perspective will truly make everything else you might want support with that much easier. When you shift your paradigm and learn to feed your body and heart from a soul- nourishing place that truly honors who you are, you basically can’t get it wrong.
If you feel drawn, please book an initial session where we will begin to map out your customized pathway back to health. This first session is half off. ($111)
Current pricing:
$225 per session
5 session package for $1,100.00
10 session package for $2,000.00 (comes out to $200 per session)
NOTE: All sessions are via Zoom or phone call.
What I share with my clients is my own personal empowerment experience through transcending my health struggles as well as the culmination of 20+ years of study, research, and ongoing training.
What I have discovered is that the gateway to healing your body is nourishing your soul.
I have learned in my own journey of transcending trauma that triggers and struggles are opportunities. This realization is an ongoing inspiration throughout my work, both with myself and others. I’ve also experienced that transcending trauma looks different for everyone.
My deep desire is to be a safe companion, to act as your champion, and support you through your process of healing. I am here as your trusted guide to help you recover the innate wisdom of your body. One thing I know for sure is this path of growth and transformation is infinitely better when shared.
Rescuing our spiritual well-being and humanity is now more important than ever in this fast-paced capitalist society that values material prosperity, external achievements, and physical appearance.
If you sense a tug, please book an initial session so we can start recovering your body’s innate wisdom. This first session is half off. ($111) I look forward to marveling at your brilliance.

My approach
I LOVE food, like no one you’ve ever met loves food. Eating and cooking are acts of sacred self-love. I love to eat well, and I am confident I never have to sacrifice eating with pleasure, nor do you, especially when it comes to the beauty of nourishing your body with healing food. Being able to relate powerfully to food, your bodies, and health will lead to transforming and revolutionizing your whole life.
I help clients identify their own resources, get clear on what works for them as a unique individual, make their own choices and health goals that align with their values, and navigate challenges that arise in the process of them reaching their goals.
I do this by working in service to you, using my health coaching skills, and background in holistic nutrition and culinary arts.
My backstory is that I’ve had a lot of experience learning about self-care and health through my own health struggles and have been involved with nutrition, healing, health, and using food as medicine my whole life. I’ve gone through many cycles of health transformation.
My personal story of healing and health, through forgiveness, permission, claiming my power, humor, self-acceptance, progress not perfection, embracing my imperfections, and compassionate awareness deeply influences my unique coaching style.
I will guide you in integrating a healthful diet and lifestyle through the intentional approach of playfulness, creativity, presence, compassionate self-talk, flexibility, and a light-hearted attitude.
Through our work together, you will build the skills to have more freedom, enjoyment, power and ease with your relationship to food and health.
Nutrition as Cooking in Action, Creativity as Healing in Action
Health Coaching
I'm deeply passionate about health coaching, it’s a game changer for life.
What's special about health coaching is that it's a collaborative partnership between you and me.
I will meet you exactly where you are. Step by step, we implement the science of behavior change, mindfulness, and habits to support you to live the life you envision for yourself.
I believe it’s not just what we eat but how we feed ourselves, our mindsets around health, and the relationships to our own bodies, minds, and diets that carry the seeds to transformation.
If you're curious as to whether we're the right fit for each other, please book a discovery session. Get a taste of the coaching process, and decide for yourself what you think!
What is health coaching?
You may have heard of health coaching— it’s one of the fastest growing professions in the United States, and prestigious medical institutions like the Cleveland and Mayo Clinics include health coaches on their care teams.
Health coaches..
EMPOWER you to discover your own wisdom and strength
HELP you create your own solutions to problems
SUPPORT you without judgment
HOLD you accountable to your goals
As an A-CFHC (ADAPT-Certified Functional Health Coach), my in-depth education from Kresser Institute covered the many science-based practices that improve both our health and how we grow and change as humans. It’s been incredibly moving to witness the deep transformations I have seen with every client I’ve worked with so far. Coaching clients interested in improving their own health and well-being is now an undeniable life mission and purpose, and I’d love to work with you. I invite you to help me to feed this healthy addiction. =)
Here are just a few of the benefits to you:
Making real, lasting lifestyle and behavior changes isn’t a switch you can simply flip. It takes ongoing effort and support. I’m there to support you every step of the way.
Health coaching assists you in improving your self-knowledge and awareness, setting personal goals, creating and maintaining new habits, and becoming your best self.
I’ll help you get clear on what you want, who you want to be, and where you want to go. Then we can develop a plan and schedule that aligns with your values and vision.
Packages are the way to go. Deep transformation requires commitment, resolve, and regular consistency, especially at first. Current pricing is as follows:
$225 per session
5 session package for $1,100.00
10 session package for $2,000.00 (comes out to $200 per session)
I’m ready to partner together with you as you work to improve your health.
Nutrition Consultations
Whether you are beginning a healing diet or working to maintain one, there is no question that it can feel overwhelming and isolating.
Regular cooking takes time and effort, but when you add in the additional prep and ingredient requirements of a special diet, things can get exhausting pretty quickly. And typically you’re already tired from having health struggles. That’s why you chose to embark on a special diet to begin with!
Not to mention that it can be boring to cook the same things over and over.
I would like to help you feel understood, supported, and celebrated in all your efforts to heal yourself with diet and lifestyle.
In our consultations, we will talk about all the specifics of your diet and how you feel about where you are at.
As a nutritionist, I want to make sure we are optimizing nutrient density and listening to how your body is digesting, processing, and absorbing the food you eat. We’ll go into your diet in detail and discuss goals for your health and how we can work together to achieve those goals.
As a chef, I’ll give you customized, scrumptious kitchen tips and a variety dishes for you to add to your healing culinary repertoire.
As your healing foods coach, I can give you personalized strategies and new ways to make your dedication to health more fun.

Testimonials
Chef Angela is truly gifted in her kind, gentle, informative approach. She is a master at putting nutritional puzzle pieces together.
She has worked with my family and I on gathering information and assessing where we could make some gradual dietary changes that are beneficial but not too overwhelming. She takes the shame out of recognizing eating habits and is understanding of "real life" diets. As a mom to 4 children, I want the best for all of them but my 4 year old son began having severe reactions to mosquito bites and also deep emotional peaks and valleys. Chef Angela has walked me through identifying which foods might be triggering a histamine reaction and also recognized that he needed much more healthy fat in his diet to feed his brain. Once I started offering more of those things to him, his behavior changed that very same day. It was incredible. I cannot thank Angela enough. My mother's intuition knew something was "off" with my son and Angela is helping us to see the sweet boy come back through changes in his diet. I had tried to find the answer searching online and was completely overwhelmed and discouraged trying to do it on my own. I'm so thankful to have Chef Angela guiding me on this journey. Her expertise is priceless.
— Jessica Wilson, The Conscious Stepmom.
It is such a great experience to work with Angela. Having food restrictions can be so isolating at times; Angela creates a safe, accepting, and understanding environment to opening discuss anxieties and frustrations around this topic.
Her excitement, knowledge, passion, and personal experiences not only inspire you, but remind you of the healthy choice you have made and how great the food is that you can eat!
I just loved talking about the safe foods I can eat, how I can prepare them to spice up my meals, and learning helpful techniques in the kitchen.
