My Story

Welcome to my digital world of creating healthy and happy families. I am a Christian, chiropractor, functional medicine practitioner, author, and crusader for families with chronic health problems and Autism Spectrum Disorders. I am passionate about YOU AND YOUR FAMILY, helping you build the healthy and happy balanced life that you desire.

This is the place where I share my deepest experiences and knowledge about how to overcome chronic health and ASD problems so you can begin to embrace a happy life!

I will transform you into a healthy person who is confident in overcoming nutritional, leaky gut and health challenges.

I must pause and say that nothing prepared me for having a beautiful son with Autism Spectrum Disorders. Shortly after he was born, I suddenly became a person without the answers on how to help him and our family. I painfully watched my son struggle with severe sensory, attention, motor, social and behavioral issues within our home and at school.

I cried myself to sleep every night, argued with just about everyone, and desperately tried to create harmony and peace for my family until one day I realized I had to BE THE CHANGE. I utilized my knowledge as a chiropractor and having a functional medicine practic and living a healthy lifestyle and intertwined the implementation of creative adaptive strategies within the home and classroom. I jumped headfirst into being a crusader for families like ours and 25 years later, I am on fire! Best thing ever…

In fact, it was the very first news of how gluten may be linked to Autism that caught my eye and started my journey to discovering the answer goes well beyond gluten. As nutritional research improved, I learned a leaky gut can create health, behavior, and mood problems, quite often triggered by foods such as gluten, dairy, and many more! 

This is when my functional medicine practice began to explode.

Being a mother of a gorgeous boy with Autism Spectrum Disorders has created a world blessed with many children just like him. Our home is filled with similar friends and families, and my practice is always expanding with families just like ours. Motherhood entwined with the world of Autism Spectrum Disorders has changed me beautifully, entirely, and amazingly. I have become more compassionate and patient. I no longer am quick to judge another person. Instead, I have learned to be very mindful of my thoughts, words, and actions toward others. My son has taught me to embrace every opportunity to lean in and help others who are OVERTILTED, overwhelmed, and simply, lost.

God has provided our family with a journey that although very tough, taught us humility, unconditional love, and how to help others. I have learned to help my son over the years through functional medicine, nutrition, chiropractic, and adaptive strategies both at home and in school (and an enormous amount of prayer and surrender). However, I found the main answer to helping him was addressing his leaky gut issues and vitamin and mineral deficiencies, and other body imbalances.

I appreciate your inviting me into your digital world as well. I know we can build a great team together to start your “let’s get healthy journey”. The best part of my story is I have been there so I honestly can say two things- I know what you are going through and I have solutions to help you be illness-free, active and happy again!
