I’m Sam and it’s so nice to meet you! I’m a Registered Dietitian (RD) and integrative and functional nutrition certified practitioner (IFNCP). I work with women with IBS, SIBO, endometriosis, PCOS, perimenopause, and menopause. I also support those who simply want to feel better day-to-day, increase energy, improve nutrition habits, and optimize their health. In addition, I’m well versed in fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, and MCAS as a result of 4 years working in the Complex Chronic Disease program at BC Women’s Hospital. I’m based in Vancouver, but my office is virtual so I’m able to work with clients all across British Columbia. My approach is holistic, because I recognize that your health is one big interconnected web. The unfortunate truth is many people suffer from multiple conditions, but our healthcare system often treats each one individually. Did you know that 10 to 52% of women with endometriosis also battle

Chronic, low-grade inflammation can quietly drive symptoms like fatigue, cravings, digestive discomfort, pain, and hormone imbalance. It plays a role in many common conditions, including endometriosis, PCOS, IBS, IBD, chronic fatigue syndrome, eczema, psoriasis, heart disease, obesity, and autoimmune conditions. Anti-Inflammatory April: The 21-Day Reset is a structured, dietitian-led program focused on teaching you how to eat to reduce inflammation through balanced, nourishing meals. Using a clear, supportive structure, the reset temporarily limits key inflammatory triggers while prioritizing foods that stabilize blood sugar, support digestion, and keep energy steady throughout the day. Sam heavily focuses on what to eat vs what to avoid, so you feel confident you can stick to the plan. In previous runs of this program, participants commonly reported improved energy, reduced joint pain, reduced pelvic pain, better sleep, less bloating, and more.
