Holistic Health Counselor: Katharine Silvestri, HHC

katharine-web-headshotKatharine Silvestri, Holistic Health Counselor and assistant to Mariaehel Sammis, is committed to helping you achieve a healthy relationship with food and your body.

Katharine’s approach to nutrition is all-encompassing, as she educates you in various aspects of your lifestyle choices and how these choices affect your eating behaviors. Katherine will create an eating plan to meet and support your individual health and weight management goals.

Do conflicts at your job or in your relationship cause you to overeat? Does lack of sleep or low energy prevent you from exercising? As you work with Katharine, you will discover how all of these stressors may affect not only your eating habits but also your body’s ability to function at its optimal level of health.

According to Katharine, “The concept of bio-individuality is that each person has their own nutritional needs. So, when the experts say, ‘dairy is good for you’ or ‘fat is unhealthy,’ it’s too much of a generalization. One person’s food is another person’s poison, and that’s why fad diets don’t work in the long run.”

In order to determine your dietary needs and create the most effective holistic health plan for you, your age, overall health condition, metabolic rate, as well as your personal preferences for particular foods will be taken into consideration.

Katharine provides invaluable one-on-one attention to each of her clients. At each session, you will take home a fresh perspective and a wealth of information that you can implement right away. Throughout your journey with Katharine, you will discover food and lifestyle options that will help you achieve your current and future health goals.
