Initial or Standalone Overall Wellness Consultation
Your Lifestyle Medicine powered journey to health begins with a review of how you are doing today in the 6 areas of a health promoting lifestyle.
· Before we first meet you will be asked to provide some background information including your health history and most recent laboratory studies and to complete two assessments—an overall health related lifestyle assessment and a more detailed nutritional assessment.
· All of this information will be reviewed and organized to guide our conversation when we meet.
During our initial conversation ( 80 minutes) we will review your baseline health profile and discuss the two areas of lifestyle in which you are most interested in making positive changes now.
Based on our conversation, I will craft for you a plan with concrete steps for raising your level of wellness to support a longer HealthSpan.
To conclude your initial consultation, we will meet a second time to review and refine the plan.
You and the health care providers you designate will receive both a report from your evaluation and your recommended next steps
—your personal HealthSpan Plan.
Couples and family consultations will include both individual and family level assessments and HealthSpan Plans.

Select a package of ongoing support
You get to set the pace, but between consultations you want to have time to really try out some of the changes you are committing to make, to see if they are realistic or need some retooling.
Depending on your individual plan, you may be submitting information such as from a fitness tracker or nutrition app or a blood pressure or glucose monitor in between sessions. The practice is not 24/7, but I will respond to this data and any quick questions you have.
Follow-up consultations should be fun and practical. Since they are virtual, no matter where you are, we can go for a walk together while we talk, review what’s in your kitchen or go shopping. Just about the only lifestyle skill we can’t practice together is sleep
What's in a Lifestyle Medicine Plan?
Here are a few examples...
Nutrition Guidance
Our nutritional guidance provides you with expert insights into healthy eating habits. We'll help you create a balanced and sustainable shopping, cooking and eating plan, ensuring you make informed choices to meet your goals, whether those are weight related or managing conditions such as diabetes, high blood pressure or elevated cholesterol.
Meal Planning
With our meal planning service through MyViva Plan, we take the guesswork out of eating right by crafting personalized meal plans that fit your dietary preferences and health objectives. Unlike generic meal plans, MyViva Plan adapts to your lifestyle changes and provides ongoing support from nutrition experts. You can start with just one meal per day or as many as you like—menus, recipes, and shopping lists are all provided.
Personalized Movement Plan and Tracking
Experience the transformative power of a movement plan designed specifically for your multiple health goals. Build core strength, flexibility, and great posture, maintain your bone density, and boost your endurance, confidence, and vitality. Whether you are looking for general wellness or to drop blood pressure, blood sugar, or pounds, employing a holistic approach will help you meet these goals and look and feel great!
Getting Connected
with Yourself and Others
We employ lifestyle medical approaches to mental health including lifestyle psychiatry to support your relationships and manage common conditions such as anxiety and depression, including postpartum depression.
Better Sleep Guidance
Restful sleep eludes many of us, but a personalized program of sleep hygiene can really make a difference to both how you feel and help manage chronic conditions such as insulin resistance.
