About Me

My name is Silvia, and I am happy you are here!

A little about me: Professionally, I practice as a Registered Holistic Nutritionist, Certified Applied Functional Medicine Practitioner, and Certified Trauma-Informed Somatic Practitioner.

Aside from my certifications, I have been immersed in natural health and holistic healing for as long as I can remember.

Much of my determination for better health comes from a period in my early life when I struggled with depression and anxiety, which consequently led to imbalances in my physical health, including a long struggle with eating disorders.

In my journey, I have learned much about myself and what fuels un-wellness in so many of us.

Subsequently, when I found wholeness in myself once again, I knew I wanted to help others with their health and emotional struggles as well, and decided to pursue accreditation so I could teach others more authentically.

One of the main areas I focus on in my practice is emotional/mental health and body-mind disconnection, as I have come to understand this is often where the underlying cause of many dis-ease dynamics begins. The other area I focus on is gut health and digestive wellness.

I am also experienced with various other health concerns, including mood imbalances, weight management, blood sugar, and hormone regulation.

Overall, I help you to bridge that communication between your body and mind, so you can achieve lasting stability and balance in all areas of your life.

In addition to my training in nutrition, somatic, and functional medicine, I am also certified as an Energy Practitioner and a Therapeutic Touch Practitioner, which has refined my empathic abilities, enabling me to support my clients more compassionately and supportively.

I incorporate and study different wellness modalities in my daily life, such as herbal medicine, meditation, and Yoga, and love spending time in nature and reading a wide variety of books.

I currently live on Vancouver Island, BC, with my partner Mark Adam, a Certified Embodiment Coach. You can find out more about his work here:

My goal is to educate and help you empower yourself, and to understand your body and the messages it is giving you, so that you have the tools to know how to get well and STAY well.

I believe our body has the full ability to heal itself, but it is up to us to give it the proper tools and attention to do so. I would be honored to assist you on your journey to wellness. Best wishes,

Silvia
