I am a certified plant-based health coach who helps adults, especially those over 50, lose weight, improve their health, and feel better in their bodies without complicated diets or unrealistic routines.

I bring over 40 years of experience in education to my work, including the past 10 years working one-on-one with individuals and families. While my earlier career was in a different field, it gave me deep experience in guiding behavior change, building trust, and breaking complex challenges into simple, manageable steps, skills I now bring directly into my health coaching practice.

I have completed training through the T. Colin Campbell Center for Nutrition Studies Plant-Based Nutrition Certificate program, Dr. Fuhrman’s Nutritarian Program, Main Street Vegan Academy, Food Revolution Network Health Coach Certification, and Rouxbe Forks Over Knives cooking course.

In my coaching, I focus on helping clients simplify healthy eating, build confidence, and create habits that truly fit into their lives. Whether the goal is weight loss, increased energy, or long-term health, I support clients in making sustainable changes that last.

By reflecting on your life so far, and unleashing your innate natural healing powers, you aim to achieve the best possible state of health and happiness (well-being) that suits your lifestyle. This is a clinic that walks with you and helps you achieve that goal. Our prescription is to understand the connection between food, body, and mind, and to rethink your lifestyle with a focus on food. You will receive medical treatment from a doctor and registered dietician advice on diet.
We also work to make society healthier by fusing medicine and agriculture from a global perspective.

I am a licensed Naturopathic Physician, practicing in Kent, WA., with over 20 years of experience in lifestyle medicine and plant-based nutrition.

“Food is your Best Medicine” and I have 50 years of experience in healing with plants. After receiving my Doctor of Medicine degree in 1984, I began using my expertise in Holistic Healing to a sound scientific evidence-based Integrative Medicine practice. I am also a certified Zumba and MixxedFit instructor. I truly believe that true health must be a balance of the Body, Emotion and Spirit equally and every treatment has to take all into account. Epigenetics is also an important part of the process. My passion is Chronic Diseases – especially when a patient is told that they will have to take a medication for the rest of their life. This is a journey that is educational, easy and fun. Every treatment is individual. I am the author of “Miracle Self-Healing” available on Amazon.

My passion is people experiencing PRISTINE health! I am a native New Yorker, now a North Carolinian :) Raised on Long Island, a Harvard University graduate, with a background in schizophrenia research. I am a traditionally trained Medical Doctor obtaining my medical degree from Wake Forest University School of Medicine. I have been in the field of medicine for 20 years in the areas of primary care and mental health. I co-own a mental health practice with my husband, called The Neil Group, where we offer individual, family & group therapy as well as medication management – in office and via telehealth for all things mental health.

I have always been intrigued by our amazingly designed bodies. Over 10 years ago, I had an epiphany and I asked myself, “why am I eating animals?”. Then I researched the health benefits of not consuming animal flesh, and I stopped eating animals immediately and completely and haven’t turned back ;) I am an energetic and motivating physician, and my patients endearingly refer to me as “Dr. Joyful”. I understand clearly that the way our bodies are designed to operate is impeded by many of the lifestyle choices that are made. I became certified in plant-based nutrition from Cornell University because, while I thoroughly enjoyed medical school, there was minimal training in nutrition. Now, I am better able to help my patients see the benefits of a plant-powered way of eating. We offer Wellness at our practice in order to provide patients another way of addressing their general health and mental health concerns. We offer one-on-one wellness consultations, as well as groups to help hold people accountable to their goals. We offer very individualized care and are optimistic about the journey towards achieving Pristine Health.
