Menopause Nutritionist
Manage Hot Flashes, Stabilize Your Weight, and Feel Strong and Clear in Your Body Again
Nutrition Support for Women in Menopause
Menopause begins once you’ve gone 12 consecutive months without a period. With estrogen and progesterone now at consistently low levels, your body needs a different kind of support than it did during the perimenopausal transition. As a menopause nutritionist, I help women in menopause and post-menopause feel strong, clear, and at home in their bodies again — through targeted, food-first strategies that address what’s actually changing.
Managing Hot Flashes Through Nutrition
Hot flashes and night sweats are among the most disruptive symptoms of menopause. I use targeted nutrition strategies — stabilizing blood sugar, reducing inflammatory triggers, supporting the liver, and incorporating phytoestrogen-rich foods — to help reduce both the frequency and intensity of vasomotor symptoms so you can get through your day (and your night) more comfortably.
Menopause Weight Gain & Body Composition
After menopause, many women notice weight settling around the midsection, even when nothing about their eating has changed. Lower estrogen, shifting insulin sensitivity, and natural muscle loss all play a role. I build a personalized plan focused on protein adequacy, blood sugar balance, strength-supportive nutrition, and sustainable habits — without restrictive dieting.
Sleep Issues After Menopause
Poor sleep in menopause is rarely just “in your head” — it’s often driven by hormonal changes, blood sugar swings overnight, cortisol patterns, and nutrient deficiencies. I address the upstream factors with nutrition timing, key nutrients like magnesium and B vitamins, and lifestyle adjustments designed to help you fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer.
Long-Term Hormone Balance & Healthy Aging
Menopause isn’t a phase to “get through” — it’s the rest of your life. My work goes beyond symptom relief to support long-term hormone stability, bone density, heart health, brain health, and metabolic resilience. Together, we’ll build a way of eating that supports the next 30+ years of strong, vibrant living.
