Meet Elissa

As a licensed therapist who became a Certified Nutrition Specialist candidate (CNS-c), I help individuals seeking to resolve the root causes of their mental health struggles through an integrative lens. I combine supportive coping skills with functional medicine and holistic nutrition to foster lasting healing across mind, body, and spirit. If you desire comprehensive, root-cause changes that bring freedom and vitality, I would love to partner with you on your wellness journey.

I have researched the connection between nutrition and mental wellness since 2015. I hold an MA in Professional Counseling from Liberty University since 2013. I hold an MS in Human Nutrition and Functional Medicine from the University of Western States (2025) and am currently completing supervision for my Certified Nutrition Specialist (CNS) designation.

My practice focuses on the physiological roots of mental wellness, specializing in nutrition and functional medicine to optimize mood and sleep. I operate as an adjunctive specialist, designed to complement your primary psychotherapy by focusing on the somatic and biochemical foundations of your healing journey.
