About Us

Anne’s journey in the field of functional nutrition over the last 22 years began in a functional medicine practice, where she learned the power of objective testing. From there she opened her own business, A New Leaf Nutrition, where she built a wait-list distance practice in Sonoma County, California. Anne has taught nutrition courses in Washington, Hawaii, and California, hosted “Health-Wise” (a weekly radio show), and founded Restorative Wellness Solutions in 2013 with the sole purpose of training other nutrition professionals how to address complex issues with their clients and achieve the same stellar results she gets in her practice.

Anne focuses on educating her students about the importance of nutrient-dense foods and balancing biochemistry. From there, she looks for the deeper underlying issues by utilizing a variety of testing techniques and customized healing methods to restore optimal function and health.

Anne received her certification in functional nutrition from Advanced Integrated Medical Institute in Washington, DC in 2000 and she is a Master Restorative Wellness Practitioner and Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioner.

She is excited and honored to share her successful practice model with other practitioners so, together, we can globally help more people live better and longer.

Natalie’s own past struggles with allergies, hives, Hashimoto’s and fatigue,  was reversed after her training in nutritional therapy and addressing the root cause of the symptoms.  The results of her own successful health journey, continues to fuel her passion for restoring optimal health and vitality to her clients lives.  She uses targeted protocols to resolve the underlying causes of chronic conditions such as;  IBS, leaky gut, fatigue, allergies, skin conditions, digestive distress and autoimmune conditions.

Sara is the owner of Wellness Intentioned, a private nutrition practice based in Richmond, Virginia.  Her practice is predominantly focused on gut health, as the implications of a dysfunctional digestive system are far-reaching and many health concerns can be attributed to that dysfunction.  Pregnancy and fertility are also special areas of interest for Sara, and she teaches classes to educate women and their partners about preparing their bodies for a healthy pregnancy and a healthy baby.

It is Sara’s hope to deeply touch the lives of all the people she works with, helping them find both wellness of body and spirit.  She believes strongly in the body’s innate wisdom, and she strives to help her clients disconnect from the dogma and reconnect with their own bodies. When she’s not working, you can find her hanging with her husband and kiddos, doing yoga, watching live music, or tending to her one million houseplants.

Later, Katrina developed breast cancer and again turned to food and treated it successfully 100% naturally. This journey took her on a deeper dive into the imbalances that can create dysfunction in the body. After experiencing the profound effect that food can have first hand, Katrina went through the Nutritional Therapy Association’s training to become a Functional Nutritional Therapist. She has continued her education through Restorative Wellness Solutions with training to interpret lab tests which allow her to personalize her recommendations. Katrina works with clients from all over the US to help them dig down to the root causes and address their imbalances using food as their medicine.

Katrina has always had a passion for understanding how the body works. She has been teaching Pilates and anatomy for over twenty years. She conducts Pilates teacher training at her studio, Personalized Pilates, in Scottsdale, Arizona as well as speaking at Pilates conferences internationally.

Katrina is blessed with 7 children which she is passionate about raising not only with good health but also with the understanding how to pass that on to our future generations. She believes that our bodies are created to heal and is excited to share that with everyone she encounters!

Paige ventured into the world of holistic health after struggling for years with severe digestive issues and other mysterious symptoms despite countless consults with physicians and specialists. Within months of working with a functional nutritionist, she experienced profound improvements in her symptoms, which inspired her to cross the invisible line that separates conventional medicine from holistic health.

Paige has since earned certifications as a Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioner and Restorative Wellness Practitioner. She is owner of Naturally Nourished Wellness, a small practice specializing in gut health and the downstream effects of poor digestion. She strives to find balance between the holistic and mainstream approaches and aims to provide her clients with the best of both worlds, using her critical thinking skills from years in research combined with objective laboratory testing and her passion for the restorative power of whole foods and simple lifestyles. She spends her free time exploring the outdoors with her family, swinging kettlebells, and creating baked goods with healthier ingredients.

Deanne loves empowering women on a journey to find their own self-love and acceptance, while they walk the road to healing their bodies.

She runs a practice in Sydney Australia, where as an FNTP, she uses unique skills to communicate with the body’s innate intelligence to determine underlying nutrient deficiencies and internal stressors. This allows her to customise her work on a deep bio-individual level. She also has a “test don’t guess” policy and uses extensive functional laboratory work to further support her clients needs and develop targeted healing protocols for them.

Deanne also gives her time as an Assistant Instructor for the Nutritional Therapy Association Australia.
