Nutrition Counseling

For Optimal Living

We have tried dieting, but as soon as we stop, the weight comes back on. We decided to try a different approach and found Sally Hammer online. After working...
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.
Sally is the best nutritionist that I have ever visited. She has certainly saved my families health. She listens and has a vast knowledge of food and nutrition. She recognized signs of mold exposure in my family and in fact we did have hidden mold in our home and did not know it. My children's health is completely better and mine is on its way there. If I could give her more than five stars I would. She is truly a gem and a blessing to us.
Response from the owner:Thank you Heather! I am so glad we were able to get your whole family on the mend by identifying a major root issue. I am looking forward to continuing our work together. It has been so wonderful working with your and your family!
Sally came into my life when I so needed a health advocate. She's incredibly caring, her expertise is unrivaled and she always thinks outside of the box (not easy to come by). Sally's advice has given me better sleep, less stomach aches, and hope that I will heal fully. She has undoubtedly made my life much better. Would 1,000/10 recommend Sally.
Response from the owner:Thank you Annie for the kind words. It has been such a pleasure working with and getting to know you! I am excited to continue to support you as we address the root of your health concerns.
Sally’s expertise is astounding, her knowledge and listening ability is unmatched. As soon as I voiced my concerns, she began to tackle them. I’ve talked to other people with my condition and for some, it took years for their practitioners to diagnose them. After my first appointment, Sally knew exactly what to test and I was diagnosed soon afterward. In addition to her guidance through protocols and diet, Sally has supported me throughout. Sally truly cares and provides the resources necessary to succeed, including recipes and positive encouragement. She goes above and beyond for her clients. I appreciate that the next step is always explained in technical terms then described in practical day to day actions. Thanks Sally!
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!
I have absolutely loved working with Joan. I was just telling my mom today that Joan has become my "PCP" of sorts. She's reviewed my blood work, helped me prepare for an international trip, discover an autoimmune disease I didn't realize I had, so many things. Whenever something comes-up in my health, she's the person I work with to figure out a plan to support my health.

Since working with Joan, I have been able to slowly shift my relationship with my health and feel more empowered/connected to myself. Additionally, I have more energy, balance, and my mental health has improved. I didn't even realize before I started working with Joan that my long term anxiety could be lessened by diet & life choices.

When it comes to food, Joan has helped me find a rhythm that feels easeful and I am excited to eat. 🙂

I literally recommend Joan to everyone I know!
Joan at Nourished Roots has been an incredible support to me. She’s helped me to tackle some significant challenges with my relationship to food. I’ll be forever grateful. She’s a strong educator and an amazing support system.
I have been working with Joan Vye for 1 year and I have seen so much progress in my healing journey with food. Joan takes an approach that is fact-based, empathetic, and is centered on my needs as a patient. In the past year I have experienced relief in a variety of my prior symptoms and could not be happier with the results. I came to Joan with a desire to heal my relationship with food and also find out why I had been feeling so crummy for so many years. She immediately helped me with actionable steps and guidance on ways to heal my body and has been my biggest advocate on this journey. If you’re thinking about finding a nutritionist then I highly recommend Joan!
Sally has helped me so much, without all her knowledge support I would not be taking these steps to correct my health nor would I have even known how to go about changing my diet in the easiest way possible. She will work with your lifestyle to help you comfortably change your health for the better!

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!”

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.”
