ABOUT YASMINE

I am a nutritionist and health coach based in the Bay Area, California. I earned my Master’s Degree in Holistic Health Education and Nutrition from John F. Kennedy University in California. I am a member of the American Association of Nutitional Consultants and currently completing my Body Trust™ certification. Prior to starting my own practice, I was on staff at Energy Matters Acupuncture and Qi Gong in Oakland, California.

Client education that is free of stigma, shame, and fear mongering is fundamental to my nutrition practice and philosophy. I am here to help you to care for yourself in new ways and make informed decisions about your health that are evidence-based, sustainable, and rooted in self-compassion.

My training helped me better care for myself when I developed a rare chronic autoimmune disease and had to undergo multiple tests, surgeries, procedures, and years of aggressive pharmaceutical treatment. I know what it is like to struggle with my health and I am here to support you whatever your health project may be.

I want to note that I am part of an industry that can both profoundly help people when they are experiencing health challenges or exploit people’s fears, make unrealistic promises, or even cause harm when they are most vulnerable. As part of our work together, you will gain the necessary tools and information to identify predatory marketing practices and unsubstantiated pseudoscience products and health recommendations so you can confidently and fearlessly navigate the complex world of health and wellness.
