My mission is to create a safe and nurturing space for YOU where complex health issues are met with understanding, compassion, and clarity.
My approach combines evidence-based strategies with a deep respect for bio-individuality — because no two bodies, gut microbiomes, or health stories are the same, and I am dedicated to supporting you every step of the way. I use a functional, science-based approach that blends nutrition, lifestyle strategies, and targeted lab testing — because healing is not one-size-fits-all.
Your body has a story. I’m here to help you understand it.
But more than that, I’m someone who knows what it’s like to feel like your body is working against you — bloated, exhausted, inflamed, confused by “normal” lab results, and not getting the answers you deserve. That’s what led me to this work — and why I’m so passionate about helping women navigate their own health journeys with clarity and confidence.
Hey, I’m Katarina…
Certified functional nutrition practitioner | nutritionist | coffee lover
After years of studying Nutrition Science and working with clients 1:1, I’ve seen firsthand how nutrition and lifestyle can unlock the body’s ability to heal — naturally, gently, and sustainably. I have developed a deep understanding of the unique challenges we all face.
My journey has been shaped by a passion for helping others rise from confusion and chronic symptoms — and step into clarity, confidence, and lasting wellness.
My work is rooted in beliefs that our body is interconnected — gut, immune, hormone, and brain health all affect each other, and that healing takes time — but it is possible with the right support, and the right tools.
My specialties include:
HYPOTHYROIDISM, HASHIMOTO’S & OTHER AUTOIMMUNE DISORDERS
GUT HEALTH ISSUES / GASTROINTESTINAL DISORDERS/ GUT-BRAIN AXIS
NUTRIGENETICS & NUTRIGENOMICS
METABOLIC HEALTH (FROM INSULIN RESISTANCE TO IMPAIRED DETOXIFICATION)
You deserve to be heard, understood, and guided with care.
Interesting Facts
About Me…
Yoga Is My Reset Button
I turned to yoga nearly few years ago—initially out of curiosity, just wanting to finally give it a try. What I didn’t expect was how deeply it would support me. It became my anchor for grounding, flexibility, mindful movement, and moments of much-needed stillness in a busy world.
I Used To Play Basketball
Discipline and teamwork are in my DNA. I played basketball for 10 years and was on the path to a professional career. But at just 21, I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s — and had to make one of the hardest decisions of my life: choosing my health over the game.
Nature Is My Favorite Healer
Whether it’s the beach, mountains, forests, or just quiet greenery, nature is where I feel most connected—to myself, to the world, and to calm. It’s my way to recharge, reflect, and enjoy simple movement (or a vigorous one) that nourishes body and mind. Time in nature is a true medicine. Nature is for nurture.
I Love Aromatherapy & Natural Skincare
There’s almost always a diffuser running near me—energizing blends in the morning, and calming, grounding oils in the evening to wind down. My love for aromatherapy started in my early 20s when I used to attend workshops and make natural cosmetics and handmade soaps with a few close friends. It’s a sensory ritual that still brings me joy, focus, and peace.

Nourish Your Body & Own Your Healing Journey
I work with individuals who are tired of chasing symptoms and ready to find the root cause behind issues like gut imbalances, autoimmunity, hormone chaos, and chronic fatigue. I use a functional, science-based approach that blends nutrition, lifestyle medicine, and targeted lab testing — because healing isn’t one-size-fits-all.

This is your invitation to stop guessing, start healing, and feel at home in your body again.
I’ll walk with you every step of the way.
What is Functional Nutrition?
Functional Nutrition is a personalized, science-based approach to health that looks at the whole person, not just isolated symptoms.
It’s about finding and addressing root causes like nutrient deficiencies, gut imbalances, chronic stress, or toxin overload.
Root cause resolution means to ask WHY!
“WHY are those symptoms showing up?” “WHY is this happening in the first place?”
This brings us to the concept of terrain.
The roots that we look for in root-cause resolution exist in an environmental or biological terrain.
Just as the roots of a plant grow in a soil, the roots of a health issue grow in certain “soil”. A soil that is maybe overloaded with toxins and depleted of essential nutrients. A soil that is under constant stress and lack of movement. The symptoms and diagnosis came into being because of several things that previously happened—things that created the perfect terrain for the manifestation to occur.
Food is not just calories (fuel for our body) — it’s information for your body, influencing your hormones, immune system, digestion, and energy. Influencing that soil. Functional Nutrition uses whole foods, targeted nutrients, and lifestyle strategies to support the body’s natural healing capacity.
Every person is unique, with uniques story, so there’s no “one-size-fits-all” plan. I create personalized nutrition and lifestyle plan that supports your body, your goals, and your life. The focus is on balance, sustainability, and long-term transformation rather than quick fixes.
At its core, Functional Nutrition is about empowering you to understand your body, restore balance, and thrive in your health journey.
