FAQs
Got Questions? I’ve Got You.
Whether you’re still exploring or ready to dive in, it’s normal to have questions. Here’s what I get asked most—and the honest answers that will help you make the right next step for you.
“What is holistic nutrition, and how is it different from standard nutrition or medical care?”
Holistic nutrition looks at the full picture and how your gut, hormones, nervous system, and lifestyle all interact. I use functional lab testing, personalized guidance, and a whole-body lens to help you understand why you’re not feeling well and what to do about it. It’s about root causes, not quick fixes.
“What kinds of issues do you help with?”
I specialize in gut and hormone-related challenges, especially when symptoms are confusing, cycling, or dismissed by others. This includes fatigue, mood swings, digestion problems, irregular cycles, food reactivity, and also sleep struggles like insomnia or waking through the night.
“I’ve seen so many providers and still don’t have answers. How do I know this will be different?”
That’s exactly why I do things differently. I don’t hand you a template or tell you everything looks fine. I listen, test, and tailor every step. Most of my clients come to me after years of frustration—and finally find clarity and progress they haven’t had before.
“Do I have to follow a strict diet?”
No. We’ll use testing and your history to make intentional, manageable shifts. My goal is to help you feel confident around food—not restricted or overwhelmed.
“What happens on the Root Cause Clarity Call?”
This free call is where I listen to your story, understand your goals, and recommend the best level of support. It’s not a sales pitch, it’s about getting you clarity and the right fit, whether that’s a short consult series or a longer coaching package.
“What do your services cost?”
I offer several options depending on the level of support you’re looking for.
Personalized 1:1 coaching packages start at $699/month, with deeper programs and extended support available.
If you’re looking for a shorter-term or more focused option, consultation + testing packages start at $499/month.
For a more budget-friendly way to get started, my group coaching membership—The Sovereign Wellness Collective—starts at just $127/month.
We’ll walk through the best path for you (and your budget!) during your free Root Cause Clarity Call and we’ll ensure it feels like an aligned fit for you.
“Do you take insurance?”
No, my services are not covered by insurance. However, many clients use HSA/FSA funds for consultations and lab testing, depending on their provider. While I cannot guarantee my services are covered by all HSAs or FSAs, it’s worth talking to your provider to see if you can use your funds for my services.
“Do I have to do lab testing?”
Not always. While I do find testing is needed for about 90% of my clients, it might not be the case for you.
If we need deeper insight, I’ll walk you through which labs are helpful and why. I never recommend testing just to test—it’s always purposeful and personalized, helping us get to the root cause so we can tailor your healing plan.
“Will I be working with you directly?”
Yes, always. I don’t outsource or hand off your care. You’ll be working with me, Susan, from start to finish.
“How long will it take to feel better?”
Everyone is different. Some feel a shift in weeks, maybe even days, while others need more time to unwind deeper imbalances.
What I can promise: we’ll follow a clear plan, track progress together, and adjust as your body responds. And generally, most people do notice improvements in their energy and symptom relief in the first few weeks.
“What if I’m already working with a doctor or therapist?”
That’s great! My work is designed to complement other providers. I often collaborate with clients’ existing care teams and stay in my lane while supporting your healing from a root-cause, nutrition-based lens.
“What if I don’t want to commit to a long program?”
You don’t have to. After our Root Cause Clarity Call, we’ll explore the best option for you, which might be a 3-session consult package or even joining the group coaching container for a little bit. I build the plan around you and we’ll make sure you’re comfortable with your level of commitment!
“Do you offer support between sessions?”
In most cases, yes! Depending on the package or program you choose, you’ll have access to secure messaging support between sessions for questions, accountability, or adjustments. I generally offer this to my monthly coaching clients.
“Are your programs virtual or in-person?”
All of my work is virtual—so you can get care from the comfort of your own space, no matter where you live.
