Beyond Conventional Medicine

Meet Eleanor, a holistic hormone specialist who gets it—she’s here to listen, to dig deeper, and to help you finally get the answers you deserve. If you've struggled with your health, hormones, or gut, and been told “everything looks fine” and you still feel exhausted, out of balance, and not like yourself, you’re not alone. This tends to be the norm these days, and Eleanor has worked with so many women, just like you, who felt unheard and unseen.

She knows how it feels to want a practitioner who truly listens and makes sense of your symptoms. This is why she opened her own practice, and why she focuses on functional bloodwork, very different from what you are used to from a conventional doctor. Whether it’s nagging fatigue, stubborn weight changes, or hormonal swings that leave you feeling out of control, Eleanor’s approach gives you confidence that you are doing the right things to support your body, not only to ease symptoms but to feel vibrant, balanced, and like you again—without relying on more medications.

Finding the Answers Doctors Miss

Eleanor’s approach takes a closer look at what’s really happening in your body, not matching a medication with a symptom, but asking why the symptom exists in the body. Functional blood-work offers a more detailed picture than what you’d typically get at the doctor’s office. Instead of just checking if you fall within wide “normal” ranges, she sees patterns and markers that show how your body is functioning, striving for optimal rather than just in range.

Taking this approach, Eleanor can spot things like hormone shifts, nutrient gaps, or signs of inflammation that others might miss. She translates these insights into a clear, personalized plan, giving you real solutions rather than brushing off your concerns. For many women, it’s the first time they feel truly seen, heard, and supported.

Natural, Science-Backed Healing That Works

Eleanor’s approach is all about helping your body work the way it’s meant to—without piling on prescriptions. Whether you’re navigating menopause, trying to balance out hormones, or guiding a teen through period challenges, her methods are rooted in science and focused on lasting change.

She combines thoughtful strategies like tailored nutrition, carefully chosen supplements, and lifestyle shifts to support your body in a way that feels manageable and effective. Instead of just covering up symptoms, Eleanor helps you find real, sustainable solutions, showing you how to use the tools to feel better and maintain better health as you age. She loves helping you connect the dots with the systems in your body and build your confidence to make choices that truly support how you want to feel every day.

A Partner in Your Wellness Journey

Eleanor knows how isolating it can feel, as a woman, when your health concerns aren’t taken seriously, and she’s here to change that. She’s more than a practitioner—she’s someone who listens, cares, and walks alongside you on your journey to feeling like yourself again.

With years of experience, Eleanor has helped countless women find answers, rebalance, and rediscover their energy. Her approach is thoughtful and personalized, offering practical, science-based solutions that fit your unique needs. If you’re tired of being dismissed and ready for real support, Eleanor is here to guide you with compassion and professional care every step of the way.
