Practitioner
Directory
A group of like-hearted practitioners with a shared holistic vision of wellness.
Nutrition is a key but not the only key to health. In different seasons of life, our health needs change and require different expertise and support.
I’m fortunate to be connected with some wonderful health practitioners who are compassionate and nuanced in their approach. The practitioners here are those I trust deeply. Consider reaching out to them if their specialities and services can meet your current health needs.

Mandy brings an unconventional but much needed approach to pre- and postnatal support.
