Hi, I’m Nicole, a functional nutritionist.
I help adults with persistent digestive issues identify root causes and find relief through functional testing and personalized nutrition and lifestyle plans. I also work with athletes and longevity enthusiasts.

What Clients Are Saying
“Nicole is awesome. She listens well and takes a holistic approach to health and wellness. She also has personally dealt with her own health challenges and is able to bring that personal experience to her work helping others on their unique journeys to wellness. I am feeling much better now than I was before I started working with her. Thanks, Nicole!”

“With several chronic and complex GI conditions, I’ve seen an overwhelming amount of providers for decades now. I finally connected with Nicole at Morning Sage Wellness, who probably helped me more in my first visit with her than that of all my other provider visits combined!
What has set Nicole apart is that she takes the time to really listen to me—to my frustrations, my struggles, my needs, my successes, and my hopes. Her down-to-earth, calming, and positive presence creates a safe and comfortable space where I can share my story. I feel heard by Nicole.
And in better understanding me, she has known how to help me better—asking relevant and effective questions to create a clearer picture for us both. With my provided details and Nicole’s expert skillset, we collaborate together to develop customized plans and goals that I can attain. I feel like a true teammate in my wellness journey with Nicole, as she helps guide the way.
But Nicole isn’t just a “guide,” per se—she has direct lived experience here too. This further fuels her passion as a licensed functional nutritionist. She relates to what “it” can be like. I know Nicole is highly invested in my wellness because she is highly invested in her own wellness. She is her own living testament of what “it” can also be like. I look forward to more of that and already owe so much of my newfound wellness to Nicole and Morning Sage Wellness!”
