Meet Alex.
Changing the story of chronic illness.
At the end of 2019, I went from completely healthy to barely functioning… in what felt like the blink of an eye.
Migraines that wouldn't quit.
Panic attacks out of nowhere.
Nausea and vomiting with no explanation.
Along with dizziness, debilitating fatigue and anxiety I'd never experienced before.
Then food sensitivities kept multiplying until I was afraid to eat.
I did what anyone would do… go to the doctor.
And one after another, I was told it was stress.
Anxiety. PPD. Pregnancy. Genetic. Or worse, all in my head.
But I knew my own body, and I knew something didn't add up.
The Shift
Around the same time everything fell apart, my family had just bought a 1970’s split level fixer-upper. It took 2 long years for someone to connect what was happening in my body to what was happening in my environment.
Eventually, the picture became impossible to ignore: mold toxicity, Lyme disease and its co-infections, and Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS), all stacked on top of each other, all feeding each other, all invisible to conventional testing.
By the time I had real answers, I was bedridden.
I couldn't function the way I used to.
And what I learned in that bed changed everything about how I practice today.
The Takeaway
I found out that a diagnosis is not the same thing as an answer.
I realized that labs can be "normal" while your body is screaming.
And I learned that healing doesn't happen by chasing one symptom and one label at a time.
True healing? Happens when you finally find the actual block keeping your body from doing what it already knows how to do: heal itself.
That's the lens I bring to every client I work with now. Not theory or something I read about. Something I lived, clawed my way out of, then rebuilt my life around.
Where I am now
After restoring my own health and welcoming our 4th baby girl into our family- I became a Certified Integrative Health Practitioner and Bioenergetic Practitioner.
Today, I work with women who recognize themselves in my story. Women who've done "all the things," who are done being dismissed, and who are ready to invest real time and resources into getting this right, once.
I use functional and bioenergetic testing to find the pattern your body has been holding onto, and we build a custom path to help you stabilize, drain, detox, then finally rebuild.
You don't have to become your own case study. That's what I'm here for.
