Amanda practices from a functional medicine perspective. This is an exciting way to approach health!

Amanda works closely with her clients to find remedies to their health issues and identify problems before they become a problem! This means in most cases your symptoms will disappear for good! Amanda sees fewer clients daily to provide longer visits with each client.
Amanda is also a certified BodyTalk practitioner and a certificated Enneagram coach. Amanda has had her own healing journey that included healing past emotional trauma. She believes that these emotional traumas lead to her physical body's poor health, including auto-immune disease. For Amanda it was the combination of functional medicine, BodyTalk, and coaching that restored her to health (including complete remission of her auto-immune condition!). It was important to Amanda to offer these same services to her clients.
Amanda began her life in California and lived in many parts of the country growing up. As an adult she ended up in Kansas City where she practiced from an office in her home and homeschooled her children. After several years of the suburbia lifestyle Amanda and her husband caught the travel bug and traveled the country with their kids in an RV! They settled here in 2015 and love life at the lake!
