Hello,

I am Diana Tira, a Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioner (FNTP), AIP Certified Coach and RESTART Instructor. With a passion and focus in oral-systemic connection, the link between the health of your mouth and your overall health, I have an extensive knowledge in various dental concepts, Myofunctional Therapy, Buteyko breathing, holistic nutrition, homeopathy and aromatherapy.

With an emphasis on whole-body holistic nutrition as well as an integrative approach I use multidisciplinary concepts to look into a health condition. I strive on finding the root cause of a health concern rather than using a quick fix “band-aid” type of remedy. I work with clients to develop a personalized plan to support them in reaching their goals within their own lifestyle.

Vicky Ellenport is a Clinical Nutritionist who guides and motivates people towards better health.

She received her Bachelor of Health Science (Nutritional Medicine) from Endeavour College of Natural Health and works in private practice from her Brighton clinic as well as visiting businesses and individuals at their workplaces across Melbourne. She also practises globally, online through video conference and telephone.

Vicky left a successful career in the corporate sector to study nutrition. She was prompted by a lifelong interest in medicine and a belief that there was more she could be doing to manage the autoimmune disease that plagued her for decades.

Vicky started using AIP to manage her autoimmune condition and since completing her AIP accreditation she wants to help others to manage their conditions and improve their quality of life.

Please call me for a complementary discovery session and take the first steps in your healing journey.

Hello there👋🏽,

I am Nicole Orisich. I’m an empty nest Mom, Wife, Nutritional Therapy Practitioner, Certified Personal Trainer and a native New Yorker – living in Atlanta.

I used to own (Harlem’s 1st ) boutique strength training studio for women (Pretty Hard Body) and when my health began to decline, I closed my business and moved to Atlanta as a step in my healing journey.

It wasn’t until I was diagnosed with Hashimoto that I found the AIP, and successfully guided myself (and my kitchen) through the elimination phase.

In fact, it was the process of transforming my kitchen in support of my AIP lifestyle that formed the foundation of Keep it Cute Kitchen (K.I.C.K.).

Today, I’m here to help you prepare for your health journey by making your life in the kitchen, easy, healthy and cute. Yesss! 🌺

Hi, I am Annie and I am a Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioner, Restorative Wellness Practitioner, and a Registered Yoga Teacher. My mission is to empower individuals to take charge of their health by educating, motivating, and supporting them through their journey to a healthy way of life! I work with clients to address the root cause of digestive issues and help them to regain control of their health.

Kathleen Togneri is a health coach who supports individuals living with autoimmune disease to create their personal wellness program. Since being diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis in 1994, Kathleen knows the feelings and challenges facing any person with autoimmune disease—and it’s not one-size-fits-all. Kathleen’s methodology combines a defined, organized framework based on her diverse training, with a system of feedback and adaptation to attune this framework to individual needs; Discover. Create. Adapt.

Kathleen holds a BA from San Francisco State University, as well as a certificate in Holistic Nutrition from Bauman College. She is recognized by Dr. Sarah Ballantyne, PhD (aka The Paleo Mom) as an Autoimmune Paleo (AIP) Certified Coach, by Dr. Terry Wahls as a Wahls Protocol Health Practitioner, and by Yoga Alliance as a Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT).

Greetings from Nova Scotia, Canada! My name is Stephanie Lynch and I have been an educator for over 25 years. A passion for health and wellness led me to also pursue certifications as a Personal Trainer, Corrective Exercise Specialist and Nutrition Coach. I believe wholeheartedly that health is not a look, an age, a size, or a number. I am passionate about helping clients find joyful ways to appreciate, move and fuel their unique, amazing bodies. My own struggles with Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis led me to the Autoimmune Protocol (AIP) about 5 years ago. The incredible success I experienced, and continue to experience, on the Autoimmune Protocol inspired me to become a certified Autoimmune Protocol Coach.
My goal is to support as many people as I can who are coping with Autoimmune illness, or suspected autoimmune illness, by coaching them through all facets of AIP. My educational specialization is in the area of differentiation; the ability to customize one’s learning experiences. This is something I carry into my personal training and Nutrition Coaching as well as I create programs specific to each individual with whom I have the privilege to support. I do not believe that one size fits all; we all come to this journey with unique strengths and challenges. I will work diligently beside you, supporting you on YOUR healing journey, modifying as necessary, in ways that best fit your unique set of circumstances. With an extensive teaching background, my goal is to listen, support, educate and empower you with the knowledge and strategies that will help you to minimize your Autoimmune symptoms and maximize your health.

Hi my name is Danika Sicard and I began my career at the University of Ottawa completing an undergraduate degree in Human Kinetics. This was the beginning of my particular interest in nutrition and healthy living. I began to incorporate concepts I had been taught into my daily life and experienced profound improvements in my general health, energy and state of mind. I decided then that my vocation lay in helping others to reach their health goals, prevent disease and to heal themselves. I continued my studies and completed the four-year graduate degree at the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine in Toronto. I augmented my professional credentials with a Master of Science in Acupuncture granted by the University of Bridgeport in Connecticut. It wasn’t until my second child came along that I really became interested in autoimmune diseases. My daughter was diagnosed with Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis and even after extensive education in naturopathic medicine and acupuncture, I felt I needed to know more and that’s when I fell upon the Autoimmune Protocol and the teachings of Dr. Sarah Ballantyne. It was my mission to learn everything I could about her condition and other autoimmune conditions. So, here I am today able to help people living with autoimmune disease by offering them the direction and tools they need to achieve their optimal state of health.
