Gut Health Support for Women
If you’ve been following a low FODMAP diet with no relief, and you feel like your life is ruled by your digestion, there is a better way.
Individual
The Calm Gut Program
12 weeks of structured, personalized gut health care — for women who are done trying to figure this out alone
If bloating, unpredictable digestion, or years of elimination diets have taken over your life, you don’t need another protocol to white-knuckle your way through. You need someone to actually look at your picture — your symptoms, your history, your labs — and help you build a path forward that makes sense for your real life.
That’s what this is.
This is for you if:
- You’ve built your whole day around your digestion — and you’re exhausted by it
- You’ve been low FODMAP for months and you still don’t feel well
- Your tests keep coming back ‘normal’ — but nothing about this feels normal
- You’re done chasing supplements and ready for real answers
In 12 weeks, we will:
- Get clear on what’s actually driving your symptoms — not just manage them
- Strategically expand what you can eat, so food feels less like a minefield
- Reduce bloating, urgency, and the anxiety that comes with unpredictable digestion
- Build the skills you need to handle future flares without starting from scratch
This is physiology-informed, weight-neutral digestive care — structured enough to calm your symptoms, and flexible enough to expand what you can eat — not shrink it further.
What’s included:
- Comprehensive intake and symptom assessment
- Lab review when applicable
- Six 55-minute virtual sessions over 12 weeks
- HIPAA-compliant messaging between appointments
- An individualized plan built around your actual life
- Optional advanced testing when clinically appropriate

A note on investment
My services are cash-pay and out-of-network. I know that’s worth addressing directly.
Insurance reimburses for face-to-face appointment time — and that’s it. What it doesn’t cover is the time I spend reviewing your labs before we meet, reading through your food and symptom logs between sessions, researching what’s specific to your case, or being available to you via messaging when something comes up between appointments. That work is real, and it’s a significant part of what makes this program different from a once-a-month check-in.
When you invest in this program, you’re paying for that full picture of care — not just the hour on the calendar.
That said, I do provide a superbill after each session, and many clients are able to recoup a meaningful portion of their investment through out-of-network reimbursement. I’m happy to give you language you can use when you call your insurer to ask about your benefits. I also accept HSA and FSA cards.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you take insurance?
I've tried everything for my digestion. How is working with you different?
Most of the women I work with have already tried elimination diets, cut out gluten or dairy, taken handfuls of supplements, and maybe even done a round of low FODMAP. Some got temporary relief. Most are still struggling.
The difference in my approach is that we look at the full picture — not just what you’re eating, but your hormonal shifts, your nervous system, your history with food, your sleep, your stress, and your labs. In perimenopause and menopause, digestive symptoms rarely have a single cause. When we address the underlying patterns rather than just the symptoms, women tend to get lasting relief instead of temporary fixes.
I also bring 25 years of clinical experience, a menopause certification (MSCP), and specialized gut health training to this work — so you’re not getting a generic protocol. You’re getting an assessment and a plan built around your specific body and history.
What if I have a complicated history with dieting or an eating disorder?
This is actually one of my areas of deepest expertise. My clinical background is rooted in intuitive eating and eating disorder recovery, and I bring that foundation to all of my work with midlife women. I understand that years of restriction, food rules, and diet cycling complicate everything — including how your body responds to nutrition advice now.
I will never tell you to cut out foods or use approaches that could activate old patterns. Everything I do is weight-neutral and grounded in rebuilding trust with your body — while also addressing the real physiological changes occurring. These two things are not in conflict. In fact, your history is important clinical information that shapes how we work together.
If you have an active eating disorder or are in early recovery, please reach out directly before booking so we can make sure the timing and approach are right for you.
What is a Menopause Society Certified Practitioner (MSCP)?
How do I know which program is right for me?
The honest answer is that the free 20-minute conversation is the best way to figure this out — and that’s exactly what it’s designed for. But here’s a general guide:
The 12-Week Digestive & Metabolic Support Program tends to be the right fit if your digestive symptoms are significantly affecting your daily life — you’re planning around your gut, you’ve been on elimination diets, or you want a structured, clinically-guided process with a clear beginning and end.
Ongoing Monthly Support tends to be the right fit if your needs are more layered or evolving — you’re dealing with several things at once, your symptoms are shifting as your hormones shift, or you want a consistent clinical partner rather than a fixed program. This is also a good fit if body image, your relationship with food, or a history of dieting is part of what you want to work through alongside the physical symptoms.
The Midlife Nutrition Intensive is a good starting point if you’re not sure where to begin, want clarity before committing to a longer program, or simply want one focused session with an expert who can look at your full picture and tell you honestly what she sees.
When in doubt — book the free call. There’s no pressure and no pitch. Just a conversation.
Do I need to be in menopause to work with you? What if I'm still in perimenopause?
Perimenopause is exactly where I want to meet you — and honestly, the earlier the better. The hormonal shifts that affect your digestion, metabolism, hunger, and body composition begin years before your final period, often in your early to mid-40s. Many women I work with are in the thick of perimenopause and haven’t even connected their symptoms to hormonal changes yet.
You don’t need a formal menopause diagnosis to work with me. If your body has started feeling different — digestion, energy, hunger, body composition — and you’re in your 40s or 50s, you’re in the right place.
Can I work with you if I have PCOS, prediabetes, insulin resistance, or other metabolic concerns?
Yes — and this is actually an area where a non-diet, weight-neutral approach has strong research support. Many women with these conditions have been told to restrict, cut carbs, or lose weight — advice that can create more stress on an already stressed system and often backfires long-term.
I help women with metabolic concerns address their health through consistent nourishment, blood sugar stability, muscle preservation, and nervous system support — without elimination diets or calorie restriction. If you have specific labs you’re trying to improve, bring them to our conversation. That’s exactly the kind of thing we work through together.
Reimbursement can vary significantly based on the insurer and plan, so I recommend contacting your insurance company to inquire about reimbursement. Contact me for a list of questions you should ask your insurer to see what’s covered for you.
