Where I can help most

Focused support, not generic wellness advice.

Coaching can touch almost any part of daily life, but these are the three areas most of my clients come to me for.

Autoimmune & chronic conditions

Practical, compassionate support for people living with autoimmune or other long-term conditions — always working alongside your medical team, never in place of it.

Lifestyle & behavior change

The everyday foundations — sleep, movement, food, stress, and community — rebuilt in small steps that actually fit your life, alongside what adds meaning to it, so change sticks instead of stalling out after week two.

Stress, anxiety & resilience

Sustainable ways to steady your nervous system in daily life and through the harder stretches — so you can meet uncertainty with more capacity and a little more calm.

The Approach

Coaching that starts with you.

Health coaching is a partnership. You're the expert on your own life; my job is to listen closely, ask good questions, and help you find the small, doable changes that add up to lasting wellbeing.

Led by you

I help you reach your own answers and goals, rather than handing you a plan to follow. It's a partnership, not a prescription — and it's a big part of why the changes tend to last.

The whole picture

I look at your world through the lens of the five functional medicine pillars — sleep, nutrition, movement, stress, and relationships — to see how everything connects and what's really driving how you feel.

Warm and unhurried

Sessions are supportive and unhurried, following a gentle, step-by-step process — from exploring what matters most, to choosing a next step, to a simple way to keep track.

About your coach

Hi, I'm Tanya.

I was born with autoimmunity, and a lifetime of debilitating symptoms — from IBS to Hashimoto's — followed me from an early age. A love of learning, and a drive to understand the "why" behind what my body was doing, led me to study natural, root-cause approaches to health. Little by little, that shifted not just my own care, but my family's, and now the people I coach.

My love of life, and desire to be active, engaged, and present, has always motivated me to be my best. When my two children also began showing signs of autoimmunity, it further solidified my passion to dig deeper, landing me on the doorstep of Functional Medicine, which has been a guiding light in our health journey, and my own education, ever since. I'm now a Functional Medicine Certified Health Coach (FMCHC) through the Functional Medicine Coaching Academy, in partnership with the Institute for Functional Medicine.

I give back through community outreach, online Virtual Groups, and 1:1 coaching — helping others understand the beauty of epigenetics, and how they have real power to change the way their body expresses itself. I currently lead group series at senior recreation centers throughout the county, and I'm building out resources for families too.

Right-fit coaching for every budget, and every season of life.

Functional medicine seeks to ask a broader question: “What are the underlying causes?” And it embraces the plurality of the dysfunction—the plurality of causes—in order to find a more effective solution.
