Welcome to my FAQs and Policies page, the central hub for all your inquiries and peace of mind. Whether you're exploring my frequently asked questions, reviewing my refunds policy, or verifying my ARNP license, you'll discover everything readily available here for your convenience.
Can you take over all of my medical care?
As a healthcare consultant and coach, my business structure does not allow me to assume responsibility for managing a client's medical care. This choice was deliberate, driven by numerous factors. Among them, it provides increased financial flexibility and mitigates liability, which are just a couple of the reasons behind this deliberate choice. While I can offer recommendations and guidance, I'm unable to explicitly direct and prescribe specific treatments, medications, or diagnostic tests. However, rest assured that I go above and beyond to provide comprehensive support, especially in areas like REDs and gynecological health, where I offer specialized expertise and personalized attention.
If you're unable to manage my medical care directly, will you collaborate with my care team?
Certainly! Collaboration among healthcare professionals is crucial, especially for complex conditions like REDs that benefit from a multidisciplinary approach. I'm more than happy to work with other members of your care team. However, it's important to understand that my role is to provide recommendations to you, and you can then share them with your providers. Clients must ultimately be their own best advocates and use their judgment to follow what's best for them, rather than solely relying on any one provider's advice.
Do you accept insurance?
All my services are self-pay, and I do not accept insurance. I've chosen private payment for several reasons, including offering flexibility, reducing administrative tasks, maintaining financial autonomy, prioritizing a client-centered approach, ensuring privacy, expanding service offerings, and avoiding diagnostic requirements, among others.
Can you diagnose, treat, prescribe medications, or order blood tests or imaging as part of your services?
Again: As a nurse practitioner, I'm qualified to order tests, diagnose conditions, and prescribe medications. However, in my role as a consultant and coach, my services—whether conducted in person, via email, phone, or video conferencing—strictly revolve around consulting and coaching. I do not provide explicit medical diagnoses, treatments, lab orders, diagnostic imaging, or referrals. It's important to note that I do not utilize my nurse practitioner license during consulting sessions; instead, I offer consulting services and recommendations based on my NP education and clinical experience.

For bloodwork and hormone analysis, clients frequently use InsideTracker, a platform that provides at-home blood testing kits. Users can easily order these kits online, collect their samples at home, and return them for analysis.
What if I am dissatisfied with the consulting services you provide?
No judgement here! If ever you find my consulting services aren't meeting your expectations, it's absolutely okay to take a step back. I'm open to understanding where things may have fallen short and clarifying any concerns you might have. Ultimately, you're your own best advocate, and it's important to have a care team that best suits your needs. Let's ensure you get the support that's right for you.
Is there a limit on the number of consulting sessions I can book?
Of course not! I'm here to provide support for as long as you require. Recovery from REDs and ongoing support for gynecological health can take months to years due to its complexity. Consistent monitoring and support are essential, and I'm committed to meeting your needs throughout this journey.
Are your speaking engagements customizable to suit the needs or interests of a particular audience?
Certainly! I recognize the uniqueness of each audience and am fully prepared to customize my speaking engagements to align with their specific needs and interests. Whether it involves delving deeper into birth control options, managing menstrual cycles, discussing REDs prevention strategies, or providing sex education, I'm dedicated to collaborating closely with you to ensure that the content resonates with your audience and effectively addresses their concerns.
