Functional Nutrition Counseling

Your health is influenced by more than food alone. Nutrition, sleep, stress, movement, environment, and daily habits all interact to shape how you feel and function.

The goal of functional nutrition counseling is not to create dependence on a practitioner, but to help you develop awareness, tools, and confidence to make informed choices about your own health.

At KiStones, I take a personalized, whole-person approach to nutrition counseling. Rather than starting with generic recommendations, we begin by understanding your unique history, current challenges, goals, and lifestyle. Together, we identify practical, sustainable strategies to support your wellness and help you build the foundations for lasting change.

The Foundational Wellness Assessment

Every new nutrition client begins with a Foundational Wellness Assessment - a comprehensive assessment designed to create a detailed picture of you! This in-depth process allows us to explore the many factors that influence your health and identify areas where nutrition and lifestyle strategies may support your goals.

The Foundational Wellness Assessment is a deep dive into the factors that may be influencing your current health and well-being, including:

• Nutrition patterns and dietary habits

• Health history and timeline

• Digestion and gut health

• Sleep and stress patterns

• Lifestyle factors

• Current goals

The process includes:

• Initial Consultation - Timeline Session (60 minutes)
  We discuss your health history, concerns, and current lifestyle to map out factors impacting your health. After your initial consultation, we will schedule your follow-up session together. 

• Personalized Review & Analysis (60-90 minutes)
  I carefully review your information, create a timeline of your health history, map out a functional matrix of all the factors at play and prepare individualized recommendations based on your needs.

• Follow-Up Consultation - Nutrition Counseling (60 minutes)
  We discuss findings, recommendations, and next steps to create an actionable plan.

This comprehensive process allows us to move beyond surface-level recommendations and create a thoughtful starting point for your wellness journey. 

After you book an appointment, I will send you forms to complete about your health history (if you do not want to fill them out digitally, please let me know and I can send you PDFs you can print, fill out and send in). As this is an in depth fact finding mission, there are multiple questionnaires that zoom in on different body systems. Please allow yourself a few hours to go through all the forms. Additionally, I will ask you to journal about your dietary habits for five days prior to our meeting so appointments cannot be made within five days of today's date.
