Chrisanna basically fine-tuned my all ready good eating habits and I FINALLY started losing weight! She also set realistic goals for me and my age. In a very short time I attained my target weight and was able to "spread my wings and fly away" from her care.

Hi, I’m Chrisanna and I approach therapy from a scientific stand point in that nutrition affects all cellular function. Essentially, without proper nutrition the nerves and brain just do not function properly. Current mental health treatment includes using Omega 3 Fatty Acid supplementation in the first line of treatment for depression and anxiety.
A person’s body can stop functioning normally if it has been deprived of adequate nutrition; either from under nutrition (restriction) or over nutrition (binge eating and junk foods).
Once proper nutrition is restored the body can function normally and you will feel better.
Let me, help you...
