Learn More About Courtney

Courtney is a Registered Holistic Nutritionist Canada School of Natural Nutrition with a degree in Business Administration from Brock University, blending evidence-based insight with a passion for helping women feel vibrant, present, and empowered in their health journey. She specializes in the integration of holistic nutrition and breathwork, offering a powerful approach that aligns body, mind, and spirit.

Through her 1:1 Holistic Nutrition Sessions, Courtney focuses on gut health, understanding its deep connection to mood, stress, depression, and anxiety. By addressing root causes like inflammation, nutrient deficiencies, and digestive imbalances, she creates personalized nutrition strategies that support emotional well-being, balanced energy, and optimal digestion.

As a trauma-informed practitioner, Courtney also offers breathwork—a form of active meditation—to complement her nutritional support. This practice helps release stored emotions such as grief, anger, and sadness, allowing clients to access greater emotional resilience, intuition, and a deeper sense of inner calm.

Both nutrition and breathwork are rooted in science: Courtney uses dietary protocols to influence brain chemistry, hormone balance, and overall mental health, while her breathwork sessions regulate the autonomic nervous system, reduce stress hormones, and increase oxygenation—key factors in emotional healing and clarity.

Courtney’s integrative approach is ideal for women seeking to reduce stress, improve mood, and cultivate whole-body wellness. While services are not typically covered by insurance, clients are encouraged to check their individual coverage.
