AIP CERTIFIED COACH DIRECTORY

Hi, I’m Elke, NTP (Nutritional Therapy Practitioner) From Lima, Peru.

My goal is to look at my client’s health and accompany them on their path to healing.

With my background as a Radical Forgiveness and Infinite Possibilities coach, I work to find those emotional aspects that do not allow us to move forward in our path for healing.
With my NTP and AIP coach certification, I can complement the emotional side and address the physical and functional side encompassing all the aspects that are needed to know your body and be able to reach healing.
On my path to healing, I have been fortunate to educate myself to help others.
My approach is to balance every aspect of life, experiencing joy with no pain, gratitude and health.

Please let me know if you have any questions about my practice.

I’m Kate Jay, a Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioner, Restorative Wellness Practitioner, and qualified chef. I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism in 1997 and lived with symptoms, despite medication, for years. The death of my brother in 2008 triggered a downward spiral in my health, leaving me with a wide range of issues such as crippling anxiety, panic attacks, heart palpitations and symmetrical joint swelling. Despite having a strong family history of Rheumatoid Arthritis and elevated markers for the disease, I was dismissed by my doctor. So I decided to advocate for myself and eventually found the Autoimmune Protocol. There weren’t many resources in 2014 so it took a while to find but, once I immersed myself into the protocol, the results were astonishing. Over time my symptoms reversed, along with my inflammatory markers, and I got my life back. Being an AIP Certified Coach gives me a lot of pleasure, as I know first hand how powerful the Autoimmune Protocol is. My Restorative Wellness certification allows me to run and interpret certain lab tests for gut health and hormonal imbalances, and these are often highly complimentary to the protocol. When I work with clients I see us as a team – you could say I’m in the passenger seat with the road map, and you are the driver! Rather than putting a band-aid on symptoms, I peel away the layers of them and dig deep to find the root cause. When you work with me you’ll receive a protocol that removes overwhelm, and brings you back into balance. And at every step of the way I’ll give you guidance, support, motivation and accountability. You will learn how to take control and enjoy happy, energetic and lasting health. I take a holistic approach to health, using a nutrient dense, whole food diet and always respect bio-individuality. And as a total foodie, my passion is helping you to love the food that your body craves, at the same time as helping you heal.

Hello! I’m Sarah. After several years of struggling with fibromyalgia, food allergies and more, I first studied Holistic Nutrition at Bauman College in Berkley, CA. I have since received further education and certification from American Fitness Professionals & Associates (AFPA). My current work is as a Certified Holistic Nutritionist and clean beauty Consultant, centering holistic lifestyle changes and connection through food and community. I am passionate about building equity in the food and beauty industries and making both accessible to everyone. I practice privately, host online workshops, and provide education through classes with The Holistic Cultural Education and Wellness Center in Fresno, CA. I am also the full-time advocate and caregiver for my grandpa, who has late-stage Alzheimer’s disease and Stage 1 prostate cancer. This labor of love inspires my work and has opened me up to the practice of radical self-care as a family caregiver living with autoimmunity.

My own wellness journey led me to understand that we truly must care for our Selves FIRST in order to be present for others. This allows me to serve my clients with the highest level of understanding and empathy.

More about me… I am a gardener, a storyteller, a healer, a crystal worshipper, a kitchen witch, a rich auntie, a friend, a provider, a lover, an activist, a bully-breed mama and an ever-evolving human.

Hi there. As a Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioner, I see clients with a wide range of wellness goals.

I was diagnosed with Graves Disease in 2009 and used the Autoimmune Paleo (AIP) protocol to first put the disease in remission and now to manage symptoms. This personal experience inspires my daily work.

Digging deeper into healing through nutrition as an AIP Certified Coach allows me to be your guide as you seek relief of the nagging symptoms of an autoimmune condition. As a valuable member of your wellness team, my goal is to personalize your AIP experience and help you meet your wellness goals.

Hello, I am Katie Burford, a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner (NTP) certified through the Nutritional Therapy Association, and an AIP Certified Coach.

I endured over 15 years of experiencing mysterious symptoms, some of which were completely debilitating, before I finally received a diagnosis of Mixed Connective Tissue Disease in 2016. I have multiple autoimmune diseases which consist of Celiac, Dermatomyositis, Lupus, and Raynaud’s. At my worst, I was so crippled by my symptoms, both mentally and physically, I had to resign from my job. I spent my days rotating from lying on my couch to napping in bed; a stark contrast from the collegiate athlete and marathon runner I once identified as.

I tried the pharmaceutical route, but the side effects were just as debilitating as my actual symptoms. I began to research alternative ways to live well with autoimmune disease, which led me to AIP. I was desperate to find relief, and for the first time in years I felt hopeful and inspired to take charge of my health. In January of 2017, I began AIP and experienced improvements I never thought possible.

I am living and thriving despite having 5 autoimmune diseases, and it’s my mission to help you do the same.

I desire to provide a source of hope and support for anyone who struggles with autoimmunity. Most importantly, I want you to know that YOU ARE NOT ALONE. I know first-hand how isolating living with autoimmune conditions can be and how difficult navigating the medical world is. I am here for you! I will help you build a collaborative medical team to ensure you receive the best of both conventional medicine and alternative approaches.

I will empower you with the knowledge and skills necessary to help you make critical dietary and lifestyle changes that will lead you back towards health.
