I am professionally trained as a Registered Nurse, since 2004 having specialized in acute care, community health, and women's health.
I received certification through the American Association of Drugless Practitioners in Health + Nutrition Coaching in 2009, after studying for a year at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition. Since I have worked with clients on a one one one basis, and also been involved in leading group nutrition programs + cleanses.
In 2008 I studied with Sri Dharma Mittra and received training in classical yoga, philosophy, and yogic/vegetarian diet. I continue my studies and teach at the CNY Yoga Center and to private clients. In the fall of 2011 I will continue to deepen my yogic practice and studies in a 500 hour training certification.
I received my training from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition®. Based in New York City, Integrative Nutrition® is the largest nutrition school in the world. The school offers the world’s leading Health Coach Training Program™ and teaches over 100 dietary theories, practical lifestyle management techniques, and cutting-edge coaching methods.

Here's what past clients have to say
"I first worked with Kate as a participant in the 40 Day Challenge through the CNY Yoga Center, with Kate being one of the instructors. In this program Kate guided us on the nutritional benefits of living a holistic lifestyle. Although the program ended over 6 months ago, the information that we learned I am still using today. One of the highlights of the program for me was the grocery store trip with Kate, as she guided us through the nutritional aspects of various food groups, how to read labels and ingredient lists (i.e. if your Grandmother wouldn’t know what the ingredient is you probably shouldn’t be eating it). And working with Kate is very easy, as she is always willing to help and with a smile! Thank you for all of your hard work."

"The free consultation that was offered by Kate was beyond what I expected. Usually when someone offers a free consultation, what you receive is a very brief meeting that leaves you with many unanswered questions & the same feeling of hopelessness as when you arrived. However, Kate made me feel welcome to ask as many questions as I wanted & was never rushed through the consultation. Kate's knowledge of food & other areas that supply the nutrition to our lives, along with her very caring spirit, helped me feel comfortable & reassured me that I could make the necessary changes to my life. When I left the consultation I felt a sense of relief, knowing that change was about to happen & eager to learn more from Kate."

"I took a workshop with Kate on nutrition that completely changed the way I
think about what it means to be nourished and to nourish others. One
exercise had us listen to another person with full attention and without
interruption as a powerful means of offering the energy that brings people
fully alive. In other words, Kate shows that nurturing isn't all about
food-- that's not even the half of it."
