Nutritional Therapy Practitioner

Maggie brings together years of experience working with children and families, a deep background in education, and extensive training in nutrition, wellness, and mind-body practices.. As a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner and Bio-Individual Nutrition Practitioner, she takes a whole-person approach, considering each individual’s unique needs, history, environment, and daily life.

25+ Years in Education

For more than 25 years, Maggie has worked alongside children, families, and educators—as a classroom teacher, homeschool educator, small-group and individualized instructor, and coach to teachers and parents. She currently works part-time as a learning specialist and math specialist. Her work alongside occupational therapists, learning specialists, and other professionals shaped her understanding of the many factors that can influence how a child feels, learns, and functions.

Working closely with occupational therapists, learning specialists, and other professionals has given Maggie a firsthand understanding of how interconnected the body, brain, emotions, environment, and learning can be. She learned early on that when something isn’t working, the answer isn’t always found by looking at just one piece.

Today, she brings that same whole-system perspective to nutrition and wellness—looking for the underlying foundations that may be influencing how someone feels, learns, regulates, and functions.

Integrative Perspective & MIND-BODY PRACTICES

Maggie’s interest in holistic health began in her early twenties and has continued through decades of study, professional training, and personal experience. Her family’s own health journey deepened her appreciation for the complexity of health and reinforced her belief that meaningful change often begins with understanding the individual and supporting foundational needs.

Her work incorporates a longstanding mind-body perspective. With a background in dance and nearly 30 years of yoga practice, Maggie is a 500-hour certified yoga and mindfulness instructor. She enjoys teaching children breathing, mindfulness, movement, and relaxation practices that can support regulation and resilience.

Collaborative and Practical

Maggie believes nutrition should be about more than a list of foods to eat or avoid. Her goal is to make the body’s needs easier to understand and turn complex health information into practical, sustainable steps that work in real life.

She works collaboratively with individuals and families, honoring that every person is different. Rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach, Maggie helps clients explore their unique nutritional foundations and create personalized strategies that support greater balance, nourishment, and well-being.
