I received my training to practice Health Counseling at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition, which is the only nutrition school integrating all the different dietary theories—combining the knowledge of traditional philosophies with modern concepts like the USDA food pyramid, the glycemic index, the Zone and raw foods. I am certified through the American Association of Drugless Practitioners. I am also a licensed esthetician and am currently studying for my bachelor's degree in Holistic Nutrition from Clayton College of Natural Health.
My interest in holistic nutrition, food and cooking stemmed from my own experience with a health concern. Back in May 1990 I visited the dentist for a routine cleaning and had a general x-ray taken since I was a new patient. The dentist noticed a dark spot on the x-ray and wanted to take another x-ray to be clear on what he thought he saw. Long story short, I had a tumor the size of a quarter on my lower right jaw that needed removal immediately. After several reconstructive surgeries and the removal of several teeth as well as damaged nerve tissue, I had to re-learn how to chew and swallow. This was a blessing in disguise because this taught me to not only understand what foods would nourish my body, but I also learned that a happy mind creates a healthy body.

Testimonials
"I recently utilized Tracy's services. I find it
tremendously helpful and actually quite enlightening. I could not believe
how easy AND tasty incorporating greens into my daily routine could be.
Their entire approach to understanding my personality, current
food/nutrition choices and my goals are really great. Tracy takes the time
to figure me out and how to navigate the obstacles I thought were present
and offers me practical solutions."

"I am currently working with Tracy and have learned so much in such a short amount of time. Being a yoga instructor and massage therapist, I have always been interested and inspired to be as healthy as I can in my life. Tracy makes being healthy easy, fun, and so interesting. I noticed a difference in the way I feel immediately. I’m now enjoying so much more energy, so many new ideas and recipes, so many tools to explore with. Being healthy is much less daunting when you have the support that you get from this program. She meets you where you are, and focuses on getting you where you want to be. I tell you the truth, I feel like a super hero when I follow her gentle suggestions. Tracy reminds you the way you can feel, the way you want to feel, and gives you the tools to feel that way and be that way every day. I encourage everyone I know to give Nourish and Flourish Healthy Living a call. You’ll be amazed at what you learn."-Shea K.,Orlando, FL "I have been working with Tracy for 3 months now. I was a
bit skeptical when my daughter introduced me to the idea of counseling with a
nutrition expert. I really did not want to have a "teacher" having an
opinion about what I ate or when I ate it. However, I have been pleasantly
surprised, refreshed and educated with Tracy Neely. Considering myself well read on nutrition
facts , I really felt I knew "what
not" to eat. But what I did not realize is I wasn't so versed on NEW
and WONDERFUL foods to add to my day!
Tracy has introduced me to foods that actually have an effect on how I feel! Tracy is a gentle spirit, with an encouraging
and edifying mode of communicating vital facts. She has so many useful hints
and amazing recipes for better choices.
Somehow, new healthy habits have quietly, yet securely made their way
into my diet. This is my favorite thing
about this program. I have never felt guilty, I continue to feel supported, and
I continue to grow in knowledge that will sustain a more vibrant life for
myself and my family. I feel more optimistic about my health and see a brighter
future for my body because of this excellent program."
