“Working with Hilary will change your life for the better, in every way! After a significant weight gain, I wanted to get my food in check and found Hilary. She is so knowledgeable and kind and listened to my situation. She is actually the one that put my symptoms together and recommended that I get tested for Lyme Disease, which I did, and of which I had.  She did not stop there.  She went the extra step to research the specific strains that I had and then came up with a custom nutrition plan for me. During my sessions with Hilary I also had multiple stresses happening in my life, in addition to my health. My mom became ill and passed. Hilary gave me tools to help cope with everything that was going on with me and in my life.  She provided pertinent reading materials which were incredibly helpful and made my life more manageable.  I still use her words in my daily life! I especially liked how she always seemed to offer up alternative ways of looking at any situation so that it turned into a positive, rather than a negative, in addition to sharing specific coping skills. I highly recommend her services! She was a joy and delight to work with during even the most difficult of situations I found myself in, and was always a calming influence and voice of reason.  It is amazing to me what a comfort she was and how she always knew the right things to say and at the right time. I am very thankful to have worked with such a professional!" - A.

"Hilary has been an incredibly positive force in my life. Her coaching has helped me work through the real reasons behind my struggles with food and face them head on. She is so talented, has amazing insight, knows when tough love is needed and when to nurture. She has become the positive voice in my head, the angel on my shoulder that gives me guidance when I need it. Not only did working with Hilary get me different results with my weight, but I feel happier and healthier as well. I highly recommend working with her." - Kelley S.

"I've known Hilary for several years and was privileged to hear about her own journey to health and see firsthand how her dedication to wellness and nutrition changed her life. After a few years of struggling with weight gain and fatigue, and being "too busy" to make my health a priority, I took the step to contact Hilary for some help. I had just received a diagnosis that answered many of the questions I had about how I was feeling, but there was still a lot of work to do to not only control symptoms, but to become as healthy as I could be. I had tried many diets in the past, including very strict meal plans, that in hindsight only contributed more to my declining well being. I was "good" at diets, but never truly adopted any healthy habits into my daily routine. When I contacted Hilary, I felt lost and I really did not know where to start. In addition to her pragmatic, to the point, advice, she helped shape my attitude into a more positive, flexible, and forgiving one which has kept me strong and focused on this journey. With her support and guidance, I was able to make my health a priority and do some very difficult work in order to find a realistic, life-enhancing balance that fit me. For the past nine months, I have learned to change almost everything I used to believe about food and this has completely impacted how I (and my family) shop, prepare, eat, and love food. Hilary's wisdom and unwavering commitment to my journey is something I can never thank her enough for. My life today and ahead of me, as well as the lives of those around me, are better because of it!" -Erin K.

"Before my journey with Hilary, I was struggling on what path I was going to take! I was at a crossroad. I had been struggling with high blood pressure and very bad headaches, and my weight had skyrocketed because of the heart medication and the food choices I was making. After being on several different diets - eating processed, frozen, low-fat, and/or low-calorie foods, I was not a very happy person. I was taking medication I did not want to take. I wanted to change my eating habits and not stress about my weight. I wanted to learn more about whole foods. What effects did sugar, salt, gluten and cravings have on the body and mind?
Hilary has helped me put things into perspective. You are what you eat. If you eat healthy, you will be and feel healthier. She has taught me how to stay positive. She has encouraged me and guided me to try new things to cook and eat. The Saturday morning farmers market is my first stop for food shopping. I will plan my meals around what is fresh at the market. She has provided a safe environment to talk about things that were holding me back. Hilary never judged, and was always there to listen and share information. She always provides positive feedback. She is a great mentor and friend." - Karen

"I met Hilary at a talk about Lyme disease nutrition. I was very impressed with the information she shared. Her openness for questions and willingness to help with issues (even outside the scope of the talk) really made her stand out as exceptional. It is evident that she pours her heart and soul into improving the health and wellness of her clients. She was the first person to come to mind when my daughter needed some coaching for an eating disorder. After the first session, I saw a happier teenage girl. Mind you, she had been counseled by a psychologist for months with little to no improvement. Now, she has energy to be a top runner on her high school team and is enjoying friendships with her peers again. Hilary is also a great cook with many recipes to share that she has personally experimented with and perfected. She regularly shared healthy samples which motivated us to cook more at home." - Wendy

"Consistency and discipline are Hilary’s mantras, and they work. I was referred to Hilary through a friend who subscribes to Hilary’s monthly newsletter. I emailed Hilary and that is when my life started to change. I was struggling with some underlying health issues and Hilary helped me bring them to the surface and get them addressed. She had me start by eating whole foods and approaching food differently in my life. Hilary’s plan, soon to become mine, really worked for me. She is supportive, helpful, always available and your very own personal advocate. Her knowledge of nutrition and health are beyond amazing. Hilary tailored a program to fit my needs and lifestyle. She made trying things like aloe vera juice and flax seed oil fun. She has an entire library of healthy recipes that anyone would love. Hilary also has an impressive and diverse collection of resources that include yoga, online websites, health food stores, books, videos, and trusted people in the whole food industry. She supported my goals! I have started to enjoy cooking and shopping at local farmers markets. Hilary helped me find ways to eat healthier, exercise and enjoy the changes in my lifestyle. She wouldn’t take “no” for an answer and would continue to tweak what I was doing until it made sense for my family and me. She has become a resource, a friend and a lifelong teacher. I consider myself very fortunate to have met her and learned so much. Hilary is truly holistic." - Terry Hansen

“I had reached a point in my life where health had not only become an obstacle, but a hindrance. I was completely overwhelmed with work and family and thinking about my health – or myself – was just another thing I had to do. I had given up. That is, until I met with Hilary. Hilary helped me see that by focusing on my physical and mental well being, the challenges of day to day life would become more manageable. She was able to help me understand what I could add to my diet to make my body and mind run more efficiently and also educate me on which part of my diet were working me. With her help, I’ve not only lost weight, but have seen a drastic elevation in my mood. Hilary is extremely supportive and reassuring. With her help, I’ve regained confidence that I deserve to live life in an optimal state. She is a life-saver - truly!” - Cara Kresge

"One of the most comprehensive nutritionists I have ever worked with, Hilary has extensive experience working with individuals who struggle with one or more health issues that complicate their dietary needs. She makes being in control of your nutritional health delicious!" - Greg & Linda Black

“Hilary helped to get me on track with following a no sugar/no flour eating plan. I found Hilary to be extremely knowledgeable and responsive. She was continually providing information, ideas and recipes which will be great resources for me to refer to when needed. It is clear Hilary enjoys what she does and her desire to help is unquestionable. Not only does Hilary teach this she also lives the lifestyle herself which to me proves the dedication that much more.” – Corinne

"Hilary is my nutritional hero. She has brought me to a place I never thought I could be and her help encompasses all aspects of improving my nutrition and lifestyle. She provides literature, recipes, email communication and the most amazing insight. I rely on her not only as my nutritionist but have also (unexpectedly) started to view her as a life coach. She is a master at identifying the causes of my bad nutritional habits and providing small steps I can take to slowly change the overall picture." -Kelley

"I am grateful to Hilary for her support. She opened my eyes to a whole new way of thinking about my relationship with food. When we first started working together, I just didn't know where to start and she helped me build a foundation. It is apparent she really cares about her clients. She is a great teacher and very knowledgeable. Anyone who gets to work with Hilary is a very lucky person." -Tammy

"I started with Hilary at the recommendation of my personal trainer. I was working out but not really eating well to support my workouts. I knew I wanted a lifestyle change and did not quite know where to begin. As a social worker, I am always assisting others with making new healthy beginnings for their lives but did not know how to do it for myself. Well, Hilary was so much more than I expected. She not only addressed my nutrition and physical life but also gave adequate attention to my emotional and personal life to create a holistic approach that fit me. Not only has Hilary started me on the road to making healthy choices that will last a lifetime but she also provided me with the new state of mind to see a dream realized - I published my first book "Love Heals all Wounds" which is a book of poetry. This came out of two tragic events in my life - the death of my fiance and my father less than two year later. Hilary has been AWESOME! in helping me to design the life that I want to live now." - Daphne
