Virtual Consultations

Why rush to appointments when you can open up your computer and settle in at home?

In this ever changing world so much can be done virtually. We can schedule a free 20 minute consult by phone, then continue our journey via secure video calls or by phone.

It is my experience that clients are much more relaxed in their home environment. More energy can be put into nutrition changes, when there is no need to haul your kids to an appointment, rush to be on time and find decent parking. Common foods your family eats, nutrition labels & supplements are on hand and any questions can be answered during the appointment. 

Children even love video chats. They are comfortable at home with familiar surroundings. Picky eaters begin to learn that it's up to them to experience food in their own way. Lots of fun, play and discussion can take place with food during online nutrition coaching.
