As an Autoimmune Paleo Certified Health Coach, I am dedicated to helping individuals with autoimmune conditions regain control of their health and lead vibrant, fulfilling lives.

I spent 6 years going from Dr. to Dr. trying to get answers for my exhaustion & random symptoms only to be told by them all that I was healthy or it was all in my head. It wasn’t until my leaky gut entered the picture & started causing undeniable problems that they paid attention. This is despite 2 miscarriages & a stillborn son & testing ANA positive during that time (although showing no symptoms). I was told I had Microscopic Colitis, but I knew there was more, & continued to push for more testing. My ANA came back positive again, 19 years later. A visit to the Rheumatologist showed I had SIX autoimmune diseases, Fibromyalgia, POTS, Auto dystonia, Neuropathies & Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. I felt it was a death sentence! I was given meds & told these are chronic illnesses, so expect them to get worse. I was devastated, my Dr’s had let me down, how had things gotten SO out of control?

I came home & started researching, Autoimmune Protocol Diet (AIP) came up & it is not an exaggeration to say it has given me my life back. I went from barely being able to get out of bed after sleeping all night to working all day & then hiking & climbing mountains. As a licensed therapist of 25 years, I can help you nail down the stress, sleep & lifestyle piece, which is just as important as our diet. We will discuss baby steps to AIP & working smarter, not harder, to get you in a healthy life style where you are FULLY living life again. We will learn to have balance & feel at peace. I help you learn how to plan meals & batch cook, how to make AIP easy & how to set healthy boundaries to bring joy back into your life. My journey has taught me so much, & now I want to teach others how to reclaim their life & power. You can reach me at the email or phone number above, I look forward to hearing from you.

Hi I’m Linda I am a Complementary Therapist, AIP Certified Coach and Silent Counselling (Rapid Energy Release) Practitioner. I work with clients online and I can provide support in AIP Nutrition, Stress Management, Essential Oil education to enable you to use them alongside your healing journey and Silent Counselling, which is a rapid energy release therapy that helps me get to the root cause of what is going on within your body and mind energetically and guide you to release any stagnant energy that is present. My own healing journey started with me researching AIP, due to my own conditions.

As a clinical psychologist for the past twenty-five years, I have specialized in helping people make behavior changes to improve their health. I’m excited to add AIP coach certification to my qualifications so that I can assist those with autoimmune disorders make the dietary and lifestyle changes their doctors are recommending. I work either in person (Long Island, NY) or online to customize a plan that will help you live your best life.

I specialize in helping people find their motivation, guiding them to make changes, and problem solving when the change isn’t happening. I can also combine my skills as a psychologist with my skills as a coach, when needed, to help you investigate if depression, anxiety, or family stressors are getting in your way of success.

Cory Westby Loos Nutritional Therapy Practitioner (NTP)

Address:
Ashland, Oregon

*Also Practices Virtually Worldwide

Hello! My name is Cory Westby Loos and I am the mom of two wonderful grown kids and a fur baby. I have always been interested in nutrition and started off studying it at U. C. Davis but then decided to get my B.A. in Spanish and went on to get my M.A. in Speech-Language Pathology at C.S.U. Chico. I became a Soul Coaching® practitioner, an Integrative Nutrition Health Coach, a Kundalini yoga teacher, and a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner (NTP) among other things in trying to improve my own health issues through nutrition and lifestyle. I started listening to how my body was speaking to me, the only way it knew how, in symptoms. I know how much nutrition and lifestyle and working with the body, mind, and spirit connection have helped support me in my own life (improving my mood, pain, fatigue, inflammation, auto-immune-like symptoms, etc.).

I found Angie Alt, Mickey Trescott, and Sarah Ballantyne. I was diagnosed with eczema (what?!) and given a prescription but decided to do AIP on my own. The eczema went away within a month. Didn’t use the prescription. I didn’t really plunge into AIP until a couple months later when I went through Angie’s program SAD to AIP in SIX. I thought I was being very aware of my body during the program but I didn’t realize it until the program ended that my severe dips in energy had all but stopped(!!) and I decided to become an AIP Certified Coach.

What I want people to know is DO NOT GIVE UP. Keep moving forward. There is help, guidance and so much knowledge and compassion on your path. You can do it! Just keep going! xoxo

Mary Wilson Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioner

Address:
Seattle Washington

*Also Practices Virtually Worldwide

Hello! I’m Mary a Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioner and Board Certified in Holistic Nutrition. Like you or someone you know, I’m on the autoimmune disease spectrum. I co-founded Evergreen Wellness Academy with another Functional Nutritionist who is also on the autoimmune spectrum, and our experiences are what have driven us to create Evergreen Wellness Academy for you. Our goal is to provide you with the care and support that we, like so many autoimmune warriors, never received but absolutely deserve.

The power of diet and lifestyle first caught my attention when I was informed by my doctor that I was running full speed toward pre-diabetes. Unfortunately, I did not get much guidance from my doctor and ended up having to figure out how to help myself.

In the process of learning how to balance my blood sugar, my thyroid antibodies started to come down. Symptoms related to my under-performing thyroid also began to diminish. The power of nutrient-dense food and supportive lifestyle techniques was undeniable. I knew I had to spread the word far and wide about my experience in the hopes that it would inspire others to consider doing the same for themselves.

The experience of having to educate and advocate for myself is what led me to focus on supporting women challenged by autoimmune disease. I don’t want anyone to experience the loneliness, frustration, and overwhelm that I and too many others have experienced. I’m here for you, let’s work together!
