I know what it feels like to face menopause alone without direction. My mission is to give women and men the tools, science, and support I wish I had-to restore balance, rebuild strength and feel like yourself again.

About Colleen

She has a passion for helping peri- and post-menopausal women restore energy, optimize thyroid function, and break through metabolic plateaus. Colleen's approach combines a thorough evaluation of where someone is now from their labs to their lifestyle and helps to find the best modalities from behavior change hacks to peptides and other therapies that can best catapult their optimization journey. Having personally navigated her own health issues such as Hashimotos and chronic hair loss, Colleen brings both clinical insight and a lot of empathy to her work with her clients.

Colleen's Spark Notes:

Philosophy and Approach

I meet each person exactly where they are, believing that change begins with compassion and clarity. I bring empathy for the struggles - especially the lonely parts of hormonal shifts - but I also bring honest feedback and accountability. My clients do not just get protocols, they get a steady guide who helps them own their health journey with both heart and science.

Personal Life

Beyond her professional life, Colleen is a proud mom to 2 adult girls and an avid weight lifter who is constantly chasing the PRs and then coming home to make a delicious meal for her husband of 30 years. She is also a little obsessed with dogs and will watch any dog videos that come her way.
