You want Jamie Campbell in your health corner -- I cannot recommend her enough…read more I came to Jamie in my mid-40s as a full-time working mom of two who simply didn't feel like myself anymore. I was dealing with bloating, middle-of-the-night wakeups and racing thoughts, stubborn weight gain despite a healthy lifestyle, and that frustrating sense that something was "off." The confusing part? I felt like I was doing everything right. I ate whole foods. I exercised 5-6 days a week. I followed structured fitness programs and meal plans. But at 41, my body suddenly felt like it was shifting -- and the intense workouts and strategies I'd relied on for years (hello, 60-minute spin classes) seemed to be working against me. Every year at my doctor's appointment, my bloodwork came back "normal." I was told, "This is just what happens as women age. Exercise more. Eat healthier." I kept raising concerns, and for years, I felt dismissed. What I truly needed was not another generic program. I needed a customized plan. Working one-on-one with Jamie over the past year has been transformative. She started by listening -- and I felt heard for the first time. She took a comprehensive, root-cause approach, reviewing detailed bloodwork, the DUTCH hormone and stress test, and a GI Map. From there, we focused on foundational changes: proper hydration, sleep optimization, fueling strategically, heavy lifting with intention, and stress management. Jamie doesn't just hand you a plan -- she layers strategies in a way that is thoughtful, sustainable, and incredibly actionable. She understands the body and the gut deeply. She's honest but kind, motivating without being overwhelming, and she truly walks the walk in her own life. The result? I feel stronger, clearer, and more in control of my health than I have in years. If you've been struggling with symptoms that don't feel "normal" -- even if you've been told they are -- book a consultation with Jamie TODAY. She is simply the best.

Through her, I discovered that I had low iron, and now that I'm supplementing for it, I feel much better. She also helped me find healthy and tasty foods.

Jamie is a great listener--very attentive and accurate--and she sends you follow-up protocols after every session, which has been super helpful. I would book her again anytime!

I decided to go see Ann with my mom who had already been seeing her. I have had celiac disease…read moresince 2010 and have never received help from a nutritionist before. I didn't think there was anything someone could tell me about what to eat and go through everything I wasn't allowed to eat, but Ann approached it in a way I had never experienced before. She taught me things about what was going on inside me that a doctor was never able to show me. She helped me see that food is such an important thing to our everyday culture and that its important to use it in a positive way and not abuse it. My absolute favorite thing about Ann though is the fact that she inspired me to want to be a nutritionist myself. I 100% recommend Ann and wish I could give her 10 stars!

All of my questions were answered and there seemed to be a take-home sheet on every nutritional situation imaginable. I could not recommend a health care professional more highly.

Working with Shanti over the past couple of years has been so much more than a journey toward…read morelosing weight. It has genuinely changed the way I understand my body, my relationship with food, and how I approach my overall well-being. I originally came to Shanti because I wanted to lose weight. And while I have lost weight, it hasn't happened as quickly or to the extent I initially hoped. But what I've come to realize is that the real value of working with Shanti isn't just about losing weight. It's about learning how to live well in the body you've been given and helping it function at its best. Shanti doesn't teach quick fixes or one-size-fits-all nutrition plans. She teaches lifelong skills tailored to your body, your tastes, your preferences, and your lifestyle. She helps you understand how your body processes what you consume and how to make choices that actually work for you. The weight loss becomes a natural result of building healthier, more sustainable habits rather than the sole measure of success. What makes Shanti truly special is how holistic her approach is. Yes, she's incredibly knowledgeable about nutrition and the physical side of health, but she also helps you connect the dots between your hormones, cycles, emotions, environment, and consumption. You begin to understand not just what you're eating or drinking, but why, and how all of these things influence one another. That awareness has changed so much for me. It's transformed my relationship with food and alcohol, and even how I think about friendships, boundaries, and the environments I put myself in. You start to recognize what supports the life you want to live and what might be getting in the way. While the coaching may start with nutrition and your body, the experience feels much more like having a life coach. Shanti helps you build a deeper understanding of yourself and gives you the tools to make meaningful, lasting changes. I'm incredibly grateful for what I've learned from her. If you're looking for someone who will help you do more than just reach a number on the scale, I can't recommend Shanti enough. You're investing in skills and self-awareness that will benefit you for the rest of your life.

Both times, I hesitated because of the cost -- I told myself I was already paying for insurance, so why pay out of pocket for something extra? That decision cost me more than money. I've been dealing with serious health issues since 2018, and I didn't see real progress in my treatment until I finally integrated Shanti into my care team. After a few years working with her, I'm in the best health I can remember in years -- and honestly, the turnaround still shocks me. Shanti has been the cornerstone connecting the dots across a complicated health picture: major weight and puffiness fluctuations, food reactions and allergies, MCAS/histamine issues, mold, migraines, headaches, and joint pain -- all while juggling multiple doctors and endless investigative work. She's been there on the days I could barely move or eat, in real pain and down, and she's helped me build a fuller care team rather than trying to be everything herself. She got me OFF the endless cycle of adding supplements and protocols, and taught me to simplify and actually listen to my body. She's patient, she remembers every detail of my history so I never feel like a number, and she adapts to what's realistic for me rather than forcing one rigid method or diet. We've also gone deeper than the physical -- into the inner work of trauma, stress, and old patterns -- and worked through how my health connects to my marriage, family, work, and travel. I'm so grateful for my work with Shanti. It has been life changing. I wouldn't be able to propel into my next steps in life without the rigor and resilience of our time together.

We already knew about eating and living healthy, but we felt we needed more help and tools…read more Are we really making the right food choices? Is this good for us to eat or actually bad? Questions we were asking ourselves everyday but now we met someone with all the answers. From quick and tasty recipes, to how to make a trip to Whole Foods a whole new experience, Sarah not only fills in nutritional gaps but opens new doors to better health. We enjoyed our sessions with Sarah and found ourselves saying "I didn't know that" with remarkable regularity during our time together.

Sarah helped me create an easy way of eating for my body to help solve my gut and energy issues. She looks into every symptom you could be experiencing - from your skin to your energy levels, and of course she looks into all aspects of your digestion. I came to Sarah feeling very run down, low energy, upset digestive patterns, etc. I learned so much from Sarah about how incorporating certain foods into my diet could help heal my gut, as well as eliminating a few ingredients that were no longer serving me. I was also able to eliminate all non-fruit sugars from my diet very easily with Sarah's help. She is your constant motivator and support system, which is imperative in my opinion. Of course I strayed from my new lifestyle a few times, but Sarah was always checking in with me and there to help. After three months of working with Sarah, I have become a much healthier version of my former self! I now cook most meals for myself from real, whole foods. I would highly recommend Sarah to help anyone reach their goals. She is extremely knowledgable, super fun and energetic, and makes you feel at ease. Thank you for everything Sarah, you have truly transformed my entire way of living!

I honestly came to see Willie Victor to see if she could help me lose weight. At 41, and after…read morestruggling with diet, body image and having tried every single diet known to mankind, I figured I would try a professional. After running tests on many things, we found out I was not absorbing vitamins, have high cholesterol, low thyroid, dangerously low resting blood sugar and gut issues. YAY! Just kidding. Not about that list though. I had no idea there were so many things going on (besides my diet) that were contributing to my low energy and absolute inability to lose weight anymore. There seemed to be nothing I could do. But Willie convinced me otherwise. We even did tests to find food sensitivities and the foods that cause the most inflammation for me. I was not surprised the 2 main offenders are dairy and gluten. Creating a food plan that worked for me would be painful and a grieving process...no joke. The reason it took me this long to even get to Willie is that I did not want to give up pizza and I did not want to invest the work and time I knew it would take to find a good balance with food and to achieve my optimum body weight. BUT...I did. Almost 5 months into working with her, I finally feel like I am in a rhythm. For the first time in my life I do not feel like I am on a diet. I eat a massive variety of foods, I cook more, I plan better for the week and I set myself up for success day in and day out, with healthy snacks that work for me (and sometimes I do eat pizza). I don't count calories ..I simply eat the foods that make me feel good and healthy. As time goes by, I miss the foods I dumped, less and less. When I do choose to indulge on those dumped foods I feel bloated, sometimes nauseated and really, really tired. It also takes me a few days to feel my energy go back up again...so most of the time, it isn't worth it. I've lost around a pound a week, which felt really frustrating at first. A yo yo dieter, I often starved myself or lost a ton of water weight in the beginning of diets (which is really bad for you of course), so I would lose weight on the scale, fast. This time, I am actually losing weight for real and gaining muscle as I exercise and make that more of a routine as well. I have learned through Wille that with my particular body, the whole fasting thing and these long breaks between meals was hurting me and setting me up for disaster over and over. I have learned so much from Willie about taking care of myself and eating frequently in a way that 1. I don't think about or obsess about food so much. 2. I don't feel deprived. 3. I finally feel like I am living the cliché that I have made a "lifestyle" change. 4. Cravings for specific foods have all but disappeared. The only thing that brings them back is hormones sometimes or if something really emotional happens. And now I am better at identifying those feelings so I don't have to eat them. So..it's not perfect, but it is so much better. I feel that most of us know what the best eating plan is for us...we just don't want to let go of the foods that give us the most comfort. And maybe you won't have to..but finding out exactly what my unique body needed and where I could thrive the most, changed my life for the better. I am so grateful for Willie and as we come to a close of the program I am working with her, I plan to just segue to individual sessions once every few weeks to check in and continue to receive her support and guidance, because she is that good. If you are finally ready to let go and face the fact that you can have the body you want and you can have the energy level you want..and you can be healthy through focus, dedication, education and hard work, I would highly recommend Willie Victor.
