Maggie brings over 25 years of experience in education and holistic health to her work supporting individuals and families navigating autoimmune issues and neurodiversity. Her background spans classroom teaching (grades 1–7), small group and one-on-one instruction, homeschooling, and coaching teachers, and parents to meet each child’s unique needs.
Throughout her career, Maggie has worked closely with occupational therapists, learning specialists, and other practitioners to problem-solve behavioral, learning, and regulation challenges by looking at the whole child — environment, nervous system, learning style, and family context. This systems-based approach now forms the foundation of her nutrition and lifestyle work.
As a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner and Bio-Individual Nutrition Practitioner, Maggie helps bring the core foundations of digestion, nutrient density, blood sugar regulation, stress, and sleep into balance. She is trained as an Integrative Nutrition Health Coach, an Epidemic Answers Health Coach, and is completing advanced pediatric training through the BioIndividual Nutrition Institute, with a focus on autism, ADHD, and other complex childhood conditions.
Maggie’s work is also deeply personal. A student of holistic health since her early twenties, she has spent decades researching and working alongside practitioners to support healing from autoimmune challenges within her own family. This lived experience informs her steady, compassionate, and realistic approach with clients.
With a background in dance, nearly 30 years of yoga practice, and certifications as a 500-hour yoga and mindfulness instructor, Maggie understands the intimate connection between mind, body, and nervous system regulation. She is also trained in Reiki, EFT, Quantum Touch, and Eden Energy Medicine. She enjoys teaching children yoga, mindfulness, breathing, and guided relaxation as supportive tools for regulation and resilience.
Maggie’s work is grounded, educational, and collaborative — helping clients make sense of complex health challenges through bio-individual nutrition and supportive lifestyle practices, without overwhelm.
Bio
What brought me to this work…
My sophmore year of college, my body fell apart. A dance major with classes and rehearsals around the clock, I suddenly found myself in constant pain, unable to walk more than a block and chronically fatigued. Not only my body, but my brain - cognitively and socially - was affected. I felt there was a film between me and the world. Language and memory which had always felt so dependable was slippery at times. I began flipping words, unable to follow a conversation and found it easier to read backwards(!) than forwards. I sought help from doctors around the country but to no avail, and became all too familiar with gaslighting. It was only when living in Spain that I found relief for the first time from an acupuncturist. This was my entry into the alternative and integrative world of medicine which helped me over the next decade address my imbalances and rebuilt my health - my body and brain. With various health interventions, these issues resolved but also led me into a lifetime of research and education to better understand how the health of our bodies impacts learning.
