"Amber took the time to really listen to me and help me take steps to better care for myself. I never realized taking time to eat was a form of self-care."

“My son has been a picky eater since he was 2 and I was worried. I asked my son’s pediatrician if his behavior was normal. She gave me a referral to see Amber, and I feel so much less anxious. I’m involving him in the kitchen more, and even took him to the grocery store with me, which was big for us.”

“I had so many fears and questions about my health, lab work, and how nutrition could help me. Amber was so patient with me and answering my many questions. I’m excited about the progress I’ve already made.”

“When I was diagnosed with prediabetes I didn’t know what to do. A friend recommended I contact Amber, and I’m glad I did. I never realized how helpful the topics and ideas we covered would be for me, and my health insurance has paid 100% for all of my visits so far. I’m so grateful.”

“Food is a topic that I’ve struggled with for as long as I can remember. During my first visit I was hesitant as I’ve tried so many things over the years, but I was willing to keep trying. I’ve felt myself become lighter and open up to trying something new. Although I haven’t reached my dream weight, I feel more confident and relaxed around food than I’ve felt in years.”
