About Cornerstone Health & Wellness Consulting and Coaching

Welcome to my practice. My mission is to help patients thrive by achieving sustainable behavior changes to treat, reverse, and prevent chronic diseases i.e. obesity, Type 2 Diabetes, cardiovascular disease, cognitive decline and sleep disturbances.

My approach is non-judgmental, collaborative, and rooted in compassion. Together, we’ll create a personalized plan that not only addresses your immediate challenges but also enhances your long-term health.

I believe in working with you and any other necessary healthcare professionals to ensure a well-rounded approach to your well-being. 

I will help you achieve your goals by holding weekly sessions and providing daily encouragement. These frequent interactions inspire patients to gradually change their lifestyle, form healthy habits, and maintain these consistently.

My goal is to help you thrive again in your body, mind, and soul. By focusing on sustainable and meaningful changes, you will be empowered to live your healthiest and happiest life. Let's take the first step together toward a future where you feel your best—inside and out.

 I received my undergraduate degree from the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill, my doctorate from the University of Maryland, Baltimore College of Dental Surgery, my nutrition certification from Harvard Medical School Executive Education, and my Coach certification from Mentor Agility. I am a board certified Diplomate with the American College of Lifestyle Medicine, a National Board Certified Health and Wellness Coach, and a National Diabetes Prevention Program Certified Coach. I have been a board certified dentist for over 20 years. I have worked in health care in private practice, public health, and as a faculty member at the University of Maryland School of Dentistry. In my vast work experience I learned the benefit of treating the whole patient and the importance of oral and systemic health (AAOSH.org) and its impact on whole health and well-being. I began health coaching and consulting several years ago using evidence-based recommendations and have loved seeing my clients experience positive results.

I offer one-on-one coaching and/or consulting sessions, group coaching and workshops as well as retreats. My areas of focus include health and wellness consulting based on the platform of the American College of Lifestyle Medicine. I offer three coaching/consulting packages - 6 weeks, 3 months, or 6 months all of which include weekly sessions and daily encouragement. Typical engagements last 6 months with patients achieving self-sufficiency by 12 months. Contact me today to learn more about my services.
