AIP CERTIFIED COACH DIRECTORY

Hello, I’m Christine Horley and I am a Holistic Nutrition Consultant, through Bauman College. In 2008, I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia. Initially I tried the conventional medicine route, but the bad side effects negated any benefit. So, I began a journey to find other ways to heal and manage my condition. Through a mix of nutrition, physical exercise, sleep, and stress management, I have reduced or eliminated the majority of my symptoms. Last year I was also diagnosed with Hashimoto’s and have followed a similar journey to find relief from the symptoms.

The majority of my symptom relief has come from dietary changes. Using a combination of elimination diets and testing, I identified the foods that cause my symptoms to increase and the foods that support better health. Wanting to learn more, I decided to take formal nutrition training at Bauman College. Their philosophy of whole foods first fit perfectly with the lifestyle I had found for myself.

My research, experimentation, and training have led me to helping others along their own journey. I use a personalized approach to help you uncover the food, lifestyle, and environmental factors keeping you from the path to better health. One size does not fit all when it comes to nourishing our bodies. Using a holistic, whole foods approach, I provide the support and knowledge you need to reach your goals and the tools to continue into a healthier future.

Hi, I’m Amelia, a full-time Occupational Therapist in Nashville, TN. With four years of clinical practice in acute care , I’ve treated patients with all kinds of conditions—heart disease, strokes, autoimmune disease, neurological disorders—you name it. Everyday, I see the suffering that comes with these conditions, and with one in two Americans having a chronic disease (and one in four having several), I continue to ask why. Yes, genetics and other non-modifiable factors play a significant part, but there’s also incontrovertible evidence pointing directly to modern lifestyle and diet. This realization, as well as my own experience navigating Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis, has inspired me to complete additional training in order to become a health coach myself.

My mission is to empower others to make informed, thoughtful choices when it comes to their health in order to improve quality of life. I help clients with autoimmune disease address the necessary lifestyle changes to decrease internal inflammation. I provide education on meal planning, resources and recipes that aid in restoring gut health. I work with clients to identify food sensitivities and triggers while simultaneously incorporating nutrient-dense, healing foods. I also focus on strategies to:

-Manage stress and mindset
-Improve sleep quality and hygiene
-Promote regular and intentional exercise
-Reduce environmental toxin exposure
-Effectively communicate with medical practitioners

Whether you are impacted by chronic autoimmune disease or just want to live well, I would love to connect. Find me at ameliabrownwellness.com

Hi I’m Cassie, Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioner, RWS Practitioner, Certified AIP Coach and owner of Verve Nutritional Therapy. My clinical focus is on gut health, painful digestive issues, IBS, Crohn’s disease, Ulcerative Colitis and women’s hormones.

As an FNTP, I take a foundational approach to nutrition and supporting the body’s own ability to rebalance and heal. In addition to my focus on nutrition, I utilize functional lab testing in my practice to discover the underlying imbalances that have lead to dysfunction in the body.

I believe that our body communicates with us through symptoms and I am passionate about helping my clients discover the root of their symptoms. When we understand the root cause or the “why” behind our symptoms, we can begin to support the body appropriately and in doing so the body can heal and our health can be restored.

I am Alison Meletta Kucich, a functional nutrition consultant, certified health supportive chef and mom to four boys and a giant lapdog. Although I work virtually with clients across the United States, Canada and the UK, I call the Northern NJ Shore my home. As a professional who has tackled personal autoimmune disorder for thirty years, I understand the balance necessary to achieve better health while still living a “real” life. For most of us, life cannot stop when we are diagnosed with a medical condition, and I feel that managing your chronic health concerns shouldn’t be your full-time job.

I truly believe that food is medicine. Helping clients see that nutrition and lifestyle are critical to both reversal of disease and overall health is my passion. I take a practical, compassionate and evidence-based approach to tackling clients’ nutritional needs, and feel strongly about honoring each client’s unique situation. I focus on client education, goal setting, accountability, support and collaboration with your medical professionals to ensure a seamless process. As a trained chef, I delight in offering solutions that help make the AIP Protocol both sustainable and enjoyable. (Spoiler alert: I want you to eat your way to awesome!)

I am an avid, lifelong learner with nutrition certification from Tufts University, as well as additional Full Body Systems functional nutrition coursework from Functional Nutrition Lab, and health-supportive culinary arts from the Natural Gourmet Institute for Food & Health. I have degrees from Franklin and Marshall College (BA), where I completed the pre-med track, and The London School of Economics (MSc). I am also a certified Kundalini yoga instructor, as well as the former owner of a NYC-based baby food delivery company. I am passionate about the work I do and give my clients 100%.

Hi! I’m Nina, a registered dietitian that chose not to work the classic way.

My personal quest to heal my body was what brought me here. I strongly believe that food is medicine, but also poison if you don’t know what to eat. The foods that were ‘healthy’ only made me sicker. My training didn’t help so I started doing my own research.

Over the years I eliminated inflammatory foods and my body was digesting as it should be. No more bloating, no other complaints that had bothered me my whole life.
It was only later I discovered AIP, which was basically what I had been doing. It is my goal to help people reclaim their health. Eating should be pleasant, not a punishment.

Hi, I’m Julie! I am an Integrative Nutrition Health Coach and Certified Coach for the 21 Day Sugar Detox. After being diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis in 2011, I learned that medication was not enough to improve the fatigue, numbness, and brain fog that I was experiencing. By removing gluten and sugars from my diet, I found relief from MS symptoms and migraines, and improvement in my overall health. As a coach, I work with motivated individuals to make changes to their diet and lifestyle to help them feel their best. My clients experience improvement in their autoimmune disease symptoms, migraines, inflammation, and digestive issues. I am passionate about the healing power of food, and my mission is to bring a sense of hope to others who are looking to regain control of their own health.

As a fellow AI sufferer, I have always been chasing the path to wellness and have HONESTLY found it for me and my body. I can also help you find it for yours.

As a Pilates Master Trainer, specializing in dysfunctional movement, a Bowenwork practitioner, and a ministry student – I bring new aspects of Mind. Body and God to the Autoimmune Wellness path.

As a Restorative Wellness Practitioner, I have the ability to test for underlying imbalances specific to you through food sensitivity/GI health/testing, Blood Chemistry panels – including nutritional deficiencies, kidneys, full thyroid, liver/gallbladder, cardiac markers and more, and adrenal/hormone panels and help coach you through diet and lifestyle changes, and natural approach/protocol to live your best life. It is possible to improve your quality of life. Don’t forget to practice self-care today – YOU ARE WORTH IT!!!

I have worked for over 20 years as a Licensed Massage Therapist and Certified Health Coach and am currently training to become a Functional Nutrition Counselor. Because every person has a unique history and life, I take a functional, systems-based approach to figuring out what’s going on at the root level in order to help shift the terrain so that everything can work together more harmoniously and optimally. My goal is to partner with you (and your healthcare team, as needed) to make attainable and sustainable diet and lifestyle changes that help you attain your goals for optimal health and happiness. In addition to private practice, I work at the VA Hospital with veterans in chronic pain, and have taught stress management and wellness workshops there and at various other organizations. I am also a Qigong and Reiki practitioner and teacher.

My professional path continues to be guided by my personal wellness journey, which includes 16+ years with Rheumatoid Arthritis and Sjogrens, as well as menopause, Lyme Disease, various musculoskeletal injuries, healing from trauma, and managing elder care for family members. I’ve experienced firsthand the many gaps in our healthcare system and understand that optimal wellness is a long game, not a quick fix. I am humbled by all I continue to learn about life and health, and honored to be able to do this work in the world.

Hello, my name is Adriana, I’m a nutritional therapy practitioner and now the ONLY qualified AIP coach in Romania. I became more interested in this protocol after experiencing personal success with AIP, therefore I have dedicated the last few years of my life to studying, grasping and applying all the useful information that helps us all keep our bodies as healthy as possible, whether you’re battling an autoimmune condition or simply unwanted kilograms.

My main focus is working with clients on managing their autoimmune related symptoms by successfully applying the AIP principles, teaching them how to prioritize the important factors in their lives, but also how to make up nutritious and delicious meals for themselves, all of this being tailored for the Romanian and the British market as well (having experiences with both).

Why should we start a collaboration? Because I love working with people towards improving their lives and setting them up for success, whether it’s teaching them about how their body works & learning healthy habits! If you want to manage your autoimmune disease, or want to lose weight in a paced and sustainable way or simply learn how to have healthy, nutritious eating habits, you’ve found the right person!

I am very much aware of the fact that knowledge is power, guidance is essential and support is very important – these are a few mindsets which contribute to my commitment of changing lives. The success one experiences after bettering different aspects of their life is what motives me day by day to be there for you, offer you all my knowledge & guidance in your way to a healthier mind(set) in a healthier body.

I am both Romanian and United Kingdom based, I work with clients in English, Romanian or Spanish, offering online consultations worldwide as well.

Working with my own Autoimmune Conditions, and not finding the answers I needed, my goal was to become as educated as possible on how to heal through nutrition and other life practices. It was not my intention to do this as a career but as I started talking about my personal journey, people began asking what I was doing. I found a love of helping others navigate this space sitting in the seat of compassion and knowledge. Two things I yearned for over the course of my 8 years of searching. My philosophy is to incorporate both food and lifestyle practices in order for whole body health and healing. I encourage you to visit my website and see if I am the person to sit with you through this journey.
