She develops individualized plans for clients which are designed to promote wellness, prevent disease and rebalance underlying nutritional impairments.

She lectures frequently, both locally and nationally, on topics such as autism, special diets for food allergies and intolerances, healthy pregnancy planning and choosing appropriate nutritional supplementation. She has appeared on television and video.
