AIP CERTIFIED COACH DIRECTORY

I am a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner, Registered Yoga Teacher, and ordained Zen Buddhist priest through San Francisco Zen Center. By day I direct a Body-Mind Education program at a local independent high school, teaching yoga, health, and wellness to adolescents, including nutrition classes based on “real food.” I added the the AIP Coach certification to my training repertoire because I believe in the healing power of food, and have been utterly dazzled by the transformation I have experienced in my own body through adopting a nutrient-dense traditional foods diet. The Autoimmune Paleo process is a powerful tool to support deep healing through food!

Hi! My name is Priscilla Sellers!

I am a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner (NTP), Board Certified in Holistic Nutrition (BCHN®) through the National Association of Nutritional Professionals (NANP®) and Holistic Nutrition Credentialing Board (HNCB®) and an AIP Certified Coach. Prior to becoming an NTP, I had spent years researching and educating myself in all aspects of health and nutrition trying to heal my own increasing health issues, especially those associated with autoimmune disease. Conventional medicine was treating my symptoms but not the underlying cause.

In the process of finding healing for myself, I developed a passion to share this knowledge and experience with individuals who may be finding themselves in the same situation. On your own journey to seeking health, not only will you discover healing and renewed vitality but, restoration. In recent years I have worked with many one on one clients, taught online and in-person RESTART classes, developed a course (Transitioning and Adapting After RESTART) and developed a number of short presentations addressing various health and nutrition topics. I am on a continuous quest to learn and educate myself on the latest breakthroughs in nutrition and health.

My past experience in education and management help to round out my skills in educating and guiding individuals to achieve optimal health through nutrition, movement and emotional wellness and by delving deep into the underlying cause of their health issues. I feel such joy each time I think about the privilege I have to partner with individuals on their unique health quest.

I am a soul deep, New Englander, who loves fall and winter, being outdoors, hiking, snowshoeing, and strength training. I love to cook, bake, and discover new and delicious recipes to serve and share because I love food! Life is good!

Hi, my name is Sharon Barrett, and I am a licensed nutritionist and certified health coach. My commitment to helping those with autoimmune illness started with my family. My great-grandmother had disfiguring rheumatoid arthritis and even at a young age, I wanted to know why this was happening to her and what could be done to ease her suffering.

I am deeply grateful for the training I have received on the Autoimmune Protocol. I know now how effective diet and lifestyle are as tools to calm the immune system. I will encourage you to trust your intuition at each decision point, and I will provide you with the knowledge you need to make the best-informed decisions. We will do this together!

Know there is much to be hopeful for as you get started on your autoimmune healing journey. You do not have to walk alone! I look forward to connecting with you and joining your team of practitioners!

Hi! I am Mollie Ressler and I have a great deal of compassion for people and their life stories. My road to becoming an AIP certified coach began with my own midlife panic attack that landed me in an ER while on vacation in gorgeous Banff, Canada and 11 months of thinking I was literally dying before being diagnosed with Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis and finding my way to AIP. I am a Physical Therapist and Functional Medicine Health Coach through the School of Applied Functional Medicine. My physical therapy practice is specialized around pelvic health and I treat Lichen Sclerosis, Vulvodynia, Endometriosis, PCOS, Interstitial Cystitis, IBS and Ulcerative Colitis. All of these autoimmune conditions can also present with debilitating musculoskeletal dysfunctions.

I am really thrilled and excited to add AIP certified to my tool kit because this protocol only helps strengthen the potential healing that this population of patients can experience. I was helping patients with conventional PT knowledge now I can knock it out of the park with the knowledge of AIP and healing foods!

I’m a mom of two boys who has gone through the autoimmune disease journey and was astonished by how much diet and lifestyle changes made such a difference for me. I have both Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis and Celiac Disease and I went from barely able to get off the couch and watching my life go by to feeling better in my 40’s than I did in my 20’s. This amazing change was fantastic, but I also watched so many others – loved ones, acquaintances, random people in line at the grocery store – all complaining about either specific symptoms of autoimmune disease or just being tired all the time. I realized one day that I really needed to help spread the word that feeling great wasn’t just a dream meant for someone else. So I became a Certified Health Coach to work 1:1 and in small groups with people on their specific needs. Because one thing I’ve learned? No one fits a cookie cutter approach. We all respond differently and helping people walk through this journey according to their own specific needs is what I love doing. People always say are my strengths are empathy, determination, and creativity. I use these in my health coaching practice to come up with a path custom tailored to your own specific needs and make sure you follow through! I’m so excited to help you finally feel that peace, quality of life, and vibrancy you’ve been searching for!
