why white birch?

Rooted in resilience. Guided by clarity. Designed for women.

The name White Birch Wellness comes from one of nature’s most symbolic trees — a tree known for its strength, gentleness, and ability to renew what has been worn down or overwhelmed.

Birch trees are the first to grow after a forest fire. They restore balance, rebuild the environment, and signal the start of healing. Their white bark reflects light, bringing clarity to the landscape even in darker seasons. And their graceful flexibility mirrors the resilience women often don’t realize they already carry.

This is exactly what our work represents:

  • Renewal — beginning again with evidence-based tools that actually support your body

  • Resilience — building strength and balance in your hormones, digestion, energy, and metabolism

  • Clarity — learning what your symptoms are really telling you

  • Gentle guidance — without extremes, shame, or confusion

White Birch Wellness is more than a name.

It’s a promise:
A place where women can rebuild their health with clarity, compassion, and confidence — rooted in science and guided by the seasons of their lives.

My story: a nurse’s journey to root-cause healing

Helping women feel better in their bodies —with clarity, compassion, and simple changes that actually make sense.

Most women spend years trying to push through symptoms they can’t explain — fatigue that hits out of nowhere, bloating that seems unpredictable, cravings that feel impossible to control, disrupted sleep, mood shifts that don’t match their life. You chalk it up to stress, age, or being “busy”… but deep down, you know something is off.

After two decades in healthcare, I learned something powerful: your symptoms aren’t random — they’re signals. And when we can interpret those signals correctly, everything begins to make sense. You’re not “overreacting,” and you’re not imagining what you feel. Your body is asking for support in a language no one ever taught you to understand.

My work is grounded in understanding, not judgment. You’ll never be told to push harder or ignore your instincts. Instead, you’ll receive clear, evidence-based guidance that honors what you’re experiencing — emotionally, physically, and in the context of your real life. I help you connect the dots between your symptoms and the systems driving them, so you can feel more regulated, more supported, and more at home in your body again.

If you’re tired of feeling unheard, dismissed, or confused by what’s happening inside you…
you’re exactly who I’m here to help.

My journey

  • Early Years: Learning What Compassionate Care Really Looks Like

    I became a nurse because of the woman who cared for me when I delivered my first son. I was scared, overwhelmed, and unsure of what was happening in my own body — and she met me with compassion, knowledge, and calm. I wanted to be that kind of nurse for other women.

  • 2002–2017: Understanding the Real Gaps in Women’s Health

    Over the next decades, I cared for cardiac and neuro patients recovering from strokes and heart attacks and later, new moms, newborns, and high-risk pregnancies.
    What struck me most was how much of what I was seeing — the blood pressure issues, the diabetes, the stress-related symptoms — was preventable.
    And yet, the women I cared for were rarely taught how to support their bodies in a way that felt realistic or sustainable.

  • 2018: Recognizing the Patterns No One Was Talking About

    Across all ages and backgrounds, I kept seeing the same symptoms return again and again: fatigue, bloating, cravings, sleep disruptions, inflammation, mood shifts.
    Different women, same patterns — and the same feeling of being dismissed or told “everything looks normal.”
    It wasn’t enough for me anymore. Something deeper needed attention.

  • 2019–2020: Expanding Into Women-Centered Nutrition & Movement

    I began studying evidence-based nutrition and became certified through Precision Nutrition.
    I also earned my NASM Women’s Fitness Specialist certification so I could better support women’s bodies through all life phases — not with intense workouts, but with movement that respects hormones, stress, and recovery.

  • 2023–Present: Stepping Into Functional Medicine & Lifestyle Healing

    I entered training through the Institute for Functional Medicine, where I’ve been learning how lifestyle, inflammation, gut health, nervous system function, and metabolic patterns shape the symptoms women struggle with every day.
    This training helped me bridge my clinical nursing experience with a more complete, root-cause understanding of women’s health.

  • Today: White Birch Wellness

    White Birch Wellness is the result of years spent blending my nursing background with functional nutrition, women’s fitness, and evidence-based lifestyle medicine. My goal is simple: help women interpret their symptoms with clarity, reduce overwhelm, and create lasting change through sustainable habits. 

My approach

Simple, steady, evidence-based approach

I don’t believe women need more rules or restriction. Most simply need a clearer understanding of what their symptoms mean — and a plan that finally fits their real life and their real hormonal landscape.

My approach blends my nursing background, advanced nutrition training, women’s fitness expertise, and functional health principles to help you connect the dots between what you feel and the systems driving those symptoms — digestion, hormones, stress, sleep, metabolism, and inflammation. No extremes. No guessing. No one-size-fits-all plans. Just grounded, evidence-informed guidance that explains why your body feels the way it does and what actually helps.

Inside my group programs and membership, we focus on the foundations that create real change: how you nourish your body, how you digest, how you sleep, how you move, and how your nervous system recovers. And when deeper clarity is needed, you can access optional functional lab testing with a private interpretation session to personalize your next steps.

This structured, systems-based approach helps women feel more grounded, more energized, and more connected to their bodies — often sooner than they expect.

You don’t need perfection.
You need a method that finally makes sense.
