Kendra is a Certified Integrative Nutrition Health Coach specializing in assisting clients who seek to restore digestive health, explore a nutrition focused lifestyle, & discover new habits that lead to increased energy, improved state of mind, & overall healthful changes. Kendra graduated from the Institute of Integrative Nutrition in 2006. She has worked in the health & wellness field for over twenty years. Her career in the field began as a licensed massage therapist where she built a strong private practice. She taught massage therapy in Pennsylvania & Maryland for a period of time. Her passion has always revolved around digestive health. She noticed the connection between "food & mood" at a very young age. Having experienced digestive issues herself, she decided to focus on this area of health as it is so strongly connected to the overall health of the entire body. She completed a certification in Gut Health at the Institute of Integrative Nutrition. When she began working closely with clients with health concerns, she noticed a pattern- digestive health symptoms are often and easily overlooked by both patients and doctors until symptoms become intolerable & develop into more severe conditions. Kendra's approach to health coaching focuses on uncovering the layers of overall health including digestive concerns & working together with clients to address concerns in a way that supports them.
