Being a Certified Health and Nutrition Coach (AADP) from the world-renown Institute for Integrative
Nutrition in NYC, I coach clients on how to make lifestyle changes from the inside out by addressing
the areas of belief systems, low-glycemic eating, nutritional supplementation and exercise. This combination allows me to create a unique program for anyone seeking a healthier life.
I began Health Coaching as a result of my husband’s diagnosis with a very rare from of cancer. My healthy
triathlete husband went in for what we thought was appendicitis and came out being diagnosed with a cancer that affects one in a million. He has received treatment and now is vibrant and healthy. However, the experience of witnessing poor health and the uncertainty of the outcome caused me to double my focus and teach others how to maintain optimal health. I have found that a combination of health matters such as faith and what you believe, a healthy diet consisting of low-glycemic foods, nutritional supplementation, and a proper exercise/training program are key components to success in health or any athletic endeavor.
Passionate about health coaching, nutrition, fitness and matters of the mind, I love to help my clients break through their barriers and overcome those obstacles that they have had difficulty conquering. I specialize in helping them to SEE (support, encourage and educate)how great life can be through the art of balanced living. My focus with each client is to find simple, sustainable lifestyle changes that work for them. Changes that help them to feel their best or seek their peak performance as an athlete. When you’ve shed those extra pounds, regained your energy, changed your mindset and rediscovered the joy of a good night’s sleep, you will be free to make healthy choices in every aspect of your life. I have partnered with USANA Health Sciences to bring you the highest quality and most effective health and wellness products the industry has to offer. Let me join you on your journey to health and freedom!
I personally struggled with my own weight issues, especially in my youth, and know what it feels like to always want to be a different size. I’m aware how the factors in our daily life, such as food, our environment, our emotional clarity, and exercise greatly impact our health. My focus will always be on you and improving the balance and happiness in your life that is achieved through optimal health.
One of my passions is being a life long learner and I am currently pursuing my Master in Human Nutrition and Functional Medicine degree, which I anticipate finishing in 2015. I have taken numerous courses on subjects including, Gastrointestinal Imbalances, Detoxification and Biotransformation, and the Psychology of Well-being, and incorporate this learning into each client’s unique plan and program. I truly look forward to meeting you and having the opportunity to work with you. * Institute for Functional Medicine.
Growing up thin and fit as Diane did doesn’t always mean you are healthy. Back in 2009 while searching for ways to help with weight issues in her immediate family, Diane learned about the impact that their daily choices and lifestyles were creating. She herself was tired all the time, had brain fog, slow creeping weight gain, and food cravings. Sound familiar? What she found had several components. She was not moving enough, their food choices were killing her energy levels, and her cells were not receiving optimum levels of nutrients to do their job efficiently. Obviously, as the main shopper and meal preparer, her family was being affected as well. Diane admitted she had gotten lazy with convenience and prepared foods, and in their case, their increasing weight gain was directly correlated to how they were eating. Her shopping cart had become less and less nutritious, and the faith she was putting in marketing and in companies to provide us with reliable, safe and nutritious products became more frustrating. Diane vowed to start looking at what they were (and weren’t) putting inside and onto their bodies.
Working with a health coach provided Diane the support and accountability she needed. Learning how to choose foods and products that will nutrient their bodies as well as their cells has helped release weight, control carb and sugar cravings, increase energy, decrease fatigue, as well as improve self-esteem and moods. Having someone who believes in you and your success is truly a blessing.
The more she discovered, the more she felt her conscience telling her to share these principles of healthy living. In 2012, Diane received her certification as a Holistic Health Coach through the Institute of Integrative Nutrition. Not only is she able to improve and help her family and clients, this also helps her continued health and personal growth. With a recent diagnosis of Hoshimoto’s Disease, an autoimmune hypothyroid disease, as well as gluten sensitivity and other food sensitivities, Diane has become focused on developing a protocol for good digestion and healing your gut through nutrition, high quality supplements and stress management.
Optimal health is a journey, with each step forward building health and not creating disease. Diane continues to learn and will continue to share what she learns. She looks forward to helping clients who would like a better and healthier way of living – maybe you are just sick and tired of feeling sick and tired, maybe you are looking for support and guidance with healthier food choices, maybe you want to detox, maybe you want to release some weight, maybe your body isn’t cooperating with you, or maybe you are like she was and just don’t know where to begin. Let her help you!
Let’s build health, not create disease!
