In my holistic nutrition practice, I offer an approach that is looking for long term results instead of a quick fix. Whole foods first, foods friendly to your biochemical individuality, potential short term supplementation and genuine lifestyle modifications are the key! The programs I design for my clients (individuals, families or groups) are customized to meet their unique needs, preferences and health goals. I offer nutritional coaching in the following ways:
- Personal Nutritional Coaching Packages
- Menu Planning
- Grocery Store Tours
- Kitchen Cleanse
- Cooking Workshops
- Group & Corporate Wellness
- Elite Supplements
- Gastrointestinal Health Screening
- Summary of Nutritional Consultation Options

1. Personal Nutritional Coaching
What if you could learn skills that helped you to make better decisions about food and your lifestyle? What if these skills helped you feel, look and perform better in your professional and personal life? Or address a nagging health condition (mild, moderate or even severe), chronic inflammation, lose weight, feel stronger & healthier, have more energy, achieve a new fitness goal, improve digestion, sleep, etc.…
We start with an initial 2 hour Intake Review (ideally in person but Zoom/phone also work) that includes a health assessment including an overview of your lifestyle and dietary habits. Approximately 1 week later, I will outline the steps you need to achieve your goals and provide initial recommendations in the Report of Findings appointment (2 hrs). I offer a pay-as-you-go option package (Pollination) or 3 packages (Nectar, Blossom and Full Bloom) tailored to a number of sessions with a timeline to suit your health goals. Further follow ups are available as long as you have had the first two sessions (Intake Review & Report of Findings). At each follow-up, we will review and fine-tune your plan to suit your changing dietary and lifestyle needs. The more time we have, the better chance we have to get to the root cause of your issues and reach your biochemical/physical happy place!
To start your wellness journey with me, see the options below. If you're still unclear, I recommend you schedule a complimentary 15 minute Discovery Phone Session to help you choose the option best suited to your situation.

2. Menu Planning
Let me take all the work out of second guessing what you should eat. I menu plan depending on what is your optimal diet: Alkaline, Healthy Vegan, Clean Eating, Whole 30, Gluten-Free, Grain-Free, Dairy-Free, Egg-Free, Soy-Free, Ketogenic, Paleo, Nightshade-Free, Low FODMaPs, Autoimmune Paleo, Anti-Inflammatory, Food Sensitivity-Free, and the No Grain-No Pain protocol (with reintroduction of nightshades/legumes). The uniqueness to my menu plans, whether planning/cooking comes easy or not to you, is that I tailor to your food sensitivities and infuse alkalinity into all my recipes. I do this because I truly believe alkalinity transforms health and can be that missing piece for many people who have tried it all and are not getting results. This means they are delicious and simple to make, with more time for your other joys in life.
If you are already a nutritional client with a package: If you are calling me "your Nutritionist" and following one of my Hummingbird packages above, then as long as you have completed my Intake Forms and we have had our Intake Review (2 hrs) and Report of Findings (2 hrs) appointments, I can menu plan for your health. Ideally, 6 weeks is a great target as it lets you try 30 days of clean eating, wholesome, delicious menus tailored to your likes/dislikes and health conditions while removing/adding foods we have decided are best for your health. The final 2 weeks allow us to reintroduce any problematic foods and review these results.
Cost:
- If you have chosen my Blossom Package, you have the 1 week included and for my Full Bloom Package, you have 2 weeks included. For additional weeks, for any of my Hummingbird packages, it is discounted to $60/week.
- If you are not already a client or not considering a package: Without being part of one of my Hummingbird Nutritional packages, if you just want a specific plan, then we can get started right away, without all the paperwork as long as we have an initial 15 minute phone consultation to rule out any contraindications.
- Cost: $75/week. If you have food sensitivities, we will have to tailor the cost to account for the extra time needed.
3. Grocery Store Tours
I will join you for approximately 1-2 hours at your grocery/health food store (s) to teach you to read labels, help you shop, answer any of your questions, and give you my tips and suggestions for choosing healthy foods focusing on:
- Reading labels with new lenses, including which ingredients to avoid.
- Prioritizing which organic foods are the most important to purchase .
- Local and seasonal produce .
- Natural and artificial sweeteners.
- Choosing healthy snacks .
Hint: This works really well with the first week of the menu plans I provide to get you started and deal with any overwhelm with the shopping list.
Cost:
- The tours cost $100 for a private session, or $125 per couple. Please contact me to set a date and time for your tour.

5. Cooking Workshops
I am an amateur chef/foodie but have a long history in the kitchen, both as a child learning from my mother and as an adult, in gourmet groups with my foodie girlfriends in Northern Alberta, especially where we had to create our own “restaurants”. I have also had the privilege of living in 6 provinces and 6 countries and visiting many others so I love international cuisine. My interest now is to incorporate these keys: flavour, simplicity, satiety and maximum nutritional value. In my workshops, together we create food that is tailored to you or the group’s dietary needs, preferences and goals. My overall aim is to teach you that you do not need to be spending hours in your kitchen to eat well (unless of course that is your creative passion). My aim is to demonstrate simple, effective and delicious meals to leave more time for health-promoting pursuits like fitness, playtime, relationships, learning, meditation, rest, time in nature etc!
- 1 to 3 hours of guided instruction, with hands-on preparation (by me) in your kitchen, mine or a neutral venue.
- Recipes to suit your tastes and needs.
- Special diets/intolerances incorporated such as:
- Grain/Gluten/Soy/Sugar/Dairy/Egg/Nut/Nightshade-Free.
- Vegan, Vegetarian, High Raw, Alkaline, Paleo, Primal, Ketogenic, Whole 30®, Autoimmune Protocol (AIP), Low Oxalate Diet (LOD), low lectin, Medical Medium etc.
- Nutritional tips throughout (ingredients, methods of cooking).
- I do the cleanup.
- At sign up, I will send you a short questionnaire to determine your skill level, dietary needs, your kitchen layout and appliances (if your house is the venue).
- A whole lot of fun with delicious new meals, beverages, snacks and appetizers to try.
- Note: My specialty is an Alkaline menu plan.
Groceries:
- I will send a detailed shopping list prior to your lesson. Please check off the items you already have, and I will take care of the rest.
Cost:
- Private lessons are $100/hour, plus the cost of groceries. Please contact me for more information or to set up your workshop. For a group above 10, I will buy all the groceries and charge $35/person.

8. Gastrointestinal Health Screening
LauraKissmannWellness provides some lab screening for gastrointestinal health, including food sensitivity, intestinal permeability (aka “leaky gut”), gluten and Wheat Related Disorder and much more. I have paired up with Vibrant Wellness, for their state of the art IgG/IgA and peptide level Zoomer tests. The insight they provide is simply game changing to repair the gut. The best diet may not be healing if you are sensitive to it - Test Don't Guess.
These are dried blood spot tests that the client administers themselves with my guidance. They really assist us to know what is going on in the digestive process and guide me in choosing the healthiest diet and design the ideal menu plan for your situation. The list below is just a taste of the tests. Please contact me directly for the full list.
Disclaimer: As a nutritionist, I cannot diagnose and this includes lab testing. If you have purchased this test in conjunction with your nutrition program, I will be liaising with a doctor/Dietitian from the lab testing company to help interpret your results so that the best nutrition program can be formulated for you.
