Aisling C.
Sally has helped me gain energy and motivation in my every day life. She has been incredibly supportive in helping me with my mental health, which has been a lifelong struggle. On top of this, she is really conscious of and understanding about lingering triggers from an eating disorder I have recovered from. Sally listens, hears, and truly helps. Thank you so much Sally!
Response from the owner:Thank you Aisling! It has been so amazing to be your companion on this healthy journey. Excited for what is ahead!!

I was in a downhill spiral with my nutrition, when my God-Daughter told me about seeing Joan. I was skepital at first, because I had never seen a nutritionist, but after my first meeting with Joan I was convienced I was on the right track. Joan has a great amount of knowledge, and her ability to dive in and figure out the issue is top notch. I was feeling better within a month of seeing her. I love her approach, and her adaptability. It even helped my mood, along with learning self care.

Sally has truly transformed the way I think about health, diet, and nutrition. She's equipped me with the tools to make informed food choices and inspired me to take care of myself. She's flexible and creative yet keeps me grounded on routine and science-based facts that help me live a healthy life! Thanks Sally!

Sally is THE BEST. I’d never seen a nutritionist before (“I don’t need someone to tell me to eat more kale,” I thought for years) but Sally’s ability to understand, synthesize, explain, and troubleshoot what’s going on inside of our bodies is something I think everyone could benefit from. She is a resource I’ll always cherish when it comes to taking care of myself. Talk to Sally y’all!
Response from the owner:Thank you Elizabeth!! It makes me so happy to hear you were able to understand your unique health needs after working together. That greater knowledge of self is the core of why I love nutrition and functional medicine.

As a client of Sally’s, I’ve seen positive changes in my health that are putting me back in control of my life. I’ve been working with her for about six months now, and felt an immediate connection and sense of trust after our first session.

Her dedication, attention to detail and extensive knowledge of nutrition and functional medicine is extremely impressive, and the level of her work is comparable to that of an MD. Thanks to Sally’s guidance and support, I have gone from helpless to hopeful as I continue to see positive changes in my overall health – both emotionally and physically.

My case is very complex, and before I started seeing a functional medicine doctor in conjunction with my Nourished Roots sessions, Sally had started me on a protocol that was almost identical to what my doctor would have recommended. Sally is much more than your average RD; she offers ongoing support in ways you can’t obtain from a monthly doctor’s visit. What I value most is her commitment to her clients, and the fact that her work doesn’t start a few days leading up to your session, nor does it conclude a couple of days after. Sally’s brain is working around the clock – whether she’s researching your case, analyzing blood work, or sharing a new recipe she stumbled across, she has provided me with such a strong foundation and is constantly giving me the tools needed to continue trending positive in my health journey.

Through Sally’s guidance, I have gained a tremendous amount of knowledge, and most importantly, I’m finally beginning to feel better, and have been properly equipped to take charge of my health.

Joan is very knowledgeable and not judgmental at all, which is a great trait in a nutritionist. She has created a plan for me that is built on incremental, manageable steps and milestones that have helped me achieve both non-scale victories and weight loss. By keeping the day-to-day and week-to-week changes to a manageable size, I've been able to adapt more easily and incorporate these changes into my everyday life more effectively. After six months, I'm feeling much better and I feel like I've incorporated these changes into my life for sustainable benefits.

The Nourished Roots Nutrition Approach

Nourish Holistically

Support Through Goal Coaching

Real change doesn’t happen overnight. Along your wellness journey I will be there to help you identify goals for health and wellness and keep you accountable along the way. We’ll move at a pace that is right for you and keeps you motivated.

Plan Individually

Every person has unique needs and goals. There is no such thing as a one-size-fits-all plan to health. We will work together to find your individualized plan.

Emotional & Behavioral Problem Solving

Find nutrition solutions that beat to your own drum.

Look at the Roots

The human body is complex and in constant communication with itself. A functional approach to nutrition knows every sign or symptom has a root cause. I look to find and bring balance to this root cause though nourishment, not just relieving the symptoms. For example, if you had a tack in your foot, would rather look to remove the tack or take a pill for the pain?

Gain Hands-On Skills

Knowing what you need to do is important but knowing how is what creates change. I can tell you that your body might need more Vitamin A so you should eat more carrots and sweet potato, but if you don’t know how to incorporate or prepare those foods into a meal, it can be hard (if not impossible) to make the necessary changes. That’s why I make sure to offer services that can help you gain the skills needed to implement nutritional shifts.

Testimonials

I always considered myself to be a healthy person, then I received my lab results for my annual physical and was shocked to see I had high cholesterol and my A1C blood sugar was way off! I didn’t know what to do. The doctor was ready to prescribe medication and I knew I wasn’t ready for that. I didn’t just want a “band-aid,” I wanted to know what was throwing my numbers off. A friend suggested I talk with Sally. After a few months of working with Sally, my health is even better, I understand what I am eating and my lab results are Normal! What a difference it made to work with Sally!”

Susan E.

I’m so lucky to have found Sally to help me with my health problems! Sally has been extremely generous with her time, expertise and good old common sense. She has helped me to learn to manage diabetes and understand all the influences that cause and control the disease as well. In a thoroughly professional manner, Sally knows her stuff and has been a tremendous help with these many life style changes that I’ve had to make.

Brenda B.

Maryland, USA

It may sound extreme, but I know Sally saved my life! Dozens of doctors and specialists didn’t think to test for a genetic SNP that Sally felt was likely based on my symptoms. After working with Sally for several months, I’ve never felt better. I’ve recommended family and friends to her because of her incredible expertise, empathy and passion for nutrition and wellness. My healthcare bar is very high, and Sally surpassed all of my expectations.”
