Welcome
Health Coaching is a unique, exciting innovation in health and nutrition. As a Health Coach, I have studied all the major dietary theories and will help you discover what approach works best for you at this point in your life.
While most dietitians dwell on calories, carbs, fats, proteins, restrictions and lists of good and bad foods, I work with my clients to create a happy, healthy life in a way that is flexible, fun and free of denial and discipline.
No one diet works for everyone
. I will guide you to find the food and lifestyle choices that best support you. I will also help you to make gradual, lifelong changes that enable you to reach your current and future health goals.
"In three months, Shayna has been able to do what no family member or nutritionist could do." -Michael*
Getting Started
When was the last time you talked with someone about your health and received the personal attention you deserve?
It’s rare for anyone to get an hour to work on their nutrition and goals with a trained professional. As a health coach, I am here to create a supportive environment while we explore what really works for you.
Could one conversation change your life?
"Before I started seeing Shayna, food and being sick controlled me and now I control them. It is something I never thought would happen. I was sick every day for 9 years!!!" -Michelle*

Food allergies are often
misdiagnosed and can be debilitating. I can tell you from my own
experience that they do not need to be! I offer food allergy testing
that is especially good for children because it uses a blood test rather
than torturous skin tests or elimination diets. Dietary changes can
make all the difference with a variety of physiological, cognitive,
behavioral, and emotional symptoms.
