Hi, I’m Kim. I am a Registered Dietitian with a masters degree in Nutrition from Boston University with extensive, advanced functional nutrition training. I am a Certified Gastrointestinal Nutritionist as well as a Healthy Gut Practitioner and Certified Microbiome Analyst through the Microbiome Restoration Center.

Approach

I take an evidence-based, gut-centered approach to health and wellness. I use a combination of lifestyle modifications and plant-forward nutrition along with targeted supplements and herbs to return good gut function, eliminate symptoms and strengthen your foundation for improving health.

As a Microbiome Analyst, I make use of advanced microbiome testing to help guide the path, target support systems and track progress.

Conditions Supported

I primarily work with IBS, however as a functional practitioner, I don’t settle for IBS as a diagnosis. GERD, dysmotility, poor digestion, constipation, diarrhea, gas and bloating are all symptoms of foundational issues that deserve investigation, not just management. Frequently these symptoms are rooted in bacterial overgrowth and dysbiosis, which we can work to correct.

I also work with patients interested in supporting good health through a gut-focused lens. The gut is connected to and modulates every system in your body from inflammation to immunity to brain, metabolic and cardiovascular health. Whether you have a chronic illness, a mystery illness needing investigation or are looking for disease prevention strategies and longevity, ensuring good gut health is key.
