Holistic Health and Nutrition Counseling

We are pleased to introduce to you Christine Hunt, a Certified Holistic Health Counselor.  Christine specializes in Integrative Nutrition, which is a practice founded on the concept that we are nourished by more than just food. This approach to nutrition is not simply based on acquiring more self-discipline or willpower, but rather personally discovering what nourishes you, what feeds you, and, ultimately, what makes your life extraordinary.

Christine works with patients on the following:

• Setting lifestyle goals
• Making simple lifestyle changes
• Counseling on food selections
• Dealing with cravings and binges
• Cooking with ease
• Planning a menu
• Being healthy at work and on the go
• Getting support from others
• Taking consistent actions toward improving your health
• Building greater awareness when eating and during life in general
• Understanding how improving your personal and professional relationships, as well as maintaining a healthy dietary and exercise regimen, can nourish your body, mind, and soul

 

If you are ready to improve your eating habits, experience an increase in your energy and vitality, achieve your ideal weight, feel better in your body, and experience an increase in the overall happiness in your life, the first step is to schedule an initial consultation. Together we will evaluate your specific health concerns, discuss your goals and complete a thorough wellness inventory.

We now offer two nutrition and health counseling programs:

Comprehensive Holistic Health and Nutrition Counseling - this program is ideal for those who prefer slow, sustainable changes made consistently over time with nurturing support and guidance. It may take 2-3 months to begin to see outward results (though fewer cravings and more energy can occur in the first two weeks!), but changes are easily incorporated into life so there is no 'falling off' this program ... it brings about true lifestyle changes that fit easily and enjoyably into your daily life. If you are interested in transitioning to a whole-foods diet or have a history of dieting, an unhealthy relationship with food or emotional eating, this is the program for you.

This program is most successful when you make a 6 month/12 session commitment to yourself. We meet for an hour session once every two weeks for 6 months. Total cost for the 12 sessions is $1200, but receive a 10% discounted rate of $1080 when you pay for the program in full. What a great investment in your current and future health, well-being and happiness! The program is also available session-by-session for $100 per each 1 hour session.

FirstLine Therapy 12 Week Lifestyle Change Program - This program is perfect for those seeking a faster-paced, structured approach to lifestyle change including a prescribed menu plan, physical movement and stress management techniques. This program also uses a Bioimpedence Analysis (BIA)machine and other vitals to track improvements in body composition, fluid distribution (an indicator of cellular health) and overall health improvements as you progress. Visit the Special Packages tab for more detailed information on the FirstLine Therapy rogram to determine if it is the perfect fit for you!

There are two ways to get started on this program:

If your physician has prescribed this program for you or if you are confident that this is the right fit, call to schedule your comprehensive 1 1/2 hour Initial Consultation and Health Assessment.

If you would like to have a current health assessment and learn how this program would work uniquely for you, we are happy to offer a Health Assessment with body composition analysis and a 30 Minute Consultation for $80. If you decide this is a great fit for you, you will receive an $80 discount to the total cost of the 12 week program (aka the Health Assessment is FREE!).
