After struggling with bulimia for seven years, I had reached my breaking point and didn't know how…read moreto get help. After years of trying to stop the disorder on my own, I lost hope that I would ever change and decided to accept the fact that I'd never get better. Finally my mom stumbled upon Betsy Thurston's website one day and my life changed for the better from then on. Betsy is a compassionate, knowledgeable, and caring individual who worked one-on-one with me for several months to change a lifelong battle with dysfunctional eating. She worked with me to find the source of my issues and gave me small, attainable goals on a weekly basis. She understood when I "slipped up" and didn't fully achieve my goals and encouraged me to pick up right where I left off. I never felt ashamed or embarrassed to be honest with her about everything. After just four months of weekly sessions, I had completely stopped bingeing and purging, and I had a brand new, healthy outlook on food. She helped me tackle and confront the source of my disorder. It has been 2 1/2 years and I am still *successfully* managing my disorder using the lifelong tools that Betsy gave me during our sessions. The best choice I ever made was to pick up the phone and schedule my consultation with Betsy! She is the best! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

I first found Betsy through her Podcasts and even though I have never struggled with a serious…read moreeating disorder, I have always had ups and downs with my weight and dieted on and off. I contacted her and we had several meetings via Skype. She has a very unique approach to helping people with nutrition and body image. It was so refreshing to have a non-judgmental, objective person to guide me through to my goal. She helped me identify behaviors that lead me to overeating and we discussed ways I could change them. She noted that I'm a "tandem eater" who can eat mindlessly around others when they're eating, even if I'm not hungry, and now I try to remember that when I'm out with friends or with coworkers at lunch. She also provided me with numerous other tools, reading materials, and book recommendations that were quite helpful. I think that anyone who has ever tried to diet before probably has some aspect of "emotional eating" (which sometimes is due to GOOD emotions!) and Betsy is a very unique-and effective-clinician for this. I would recommend her to anyone who has ever wanted to lose weight but just can't do it on their own, especially after a few tries.

UPDATE: I never thought I had a serious candida overgrowth but a small question to Dr. Jim got me…read moreto investigating. The tongue can tell a lot about what might be going on with someone. I read that the overgrowth can go systemic, into the bloodstream and into organs. I never mentioned in my original post that I had recently had a horrible sore throat that seemed to go into my esophagus - never had anything like this before - and it wasn't going completely away. Trouble swallowing. Medical doctor did bloodwork and I was negative for Covid antibodies. I am convinced that the patch in my lung is from the candida, which can cause pneumonia. In addition I do not want to take anti-fungal drugs so I am following a strict protocol of attempting to eliminate the overgrowth. Dr. Jim told me the foods I was allowed to eat and that it could take a number of weeks to get my body back to where it should be. So I am sticking this out because he said: "If you think what you have now is bad, it's only going to get worse if you don't stop it." In addition, I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Jim Di Blasi. The office is completely safe for Covid-19 and they follow protocol. And the office has a very pleasant atmosphere.

I am just over halfway through my six-month journey with Gail at Align Health Coaching. It has been…read moretransformative already. Unlike other health and nutrition accounts I have followed/things I have tried, Gail truly gets into the science and "why" behind nutrition and health. She has helped me think about how food makes me feel and how my hormones and inner balance are affected by my choices. Mostly, my goals have expanded beyond weight loss into a more lifelong focus on wellbeing. The work is not only focused on nutrition, however. Gail gets into the bigger picture of longevity, mindfulness, and happiness through support in my exercise and mental health. She has taught me about meditation which I already see as a pivotal tool for my wellbeing. When I feel I am at a plateau, Gail gives advice to keep going. Finally, Gail is a wonderful person who makes me WANT to make better choices for myself. She is encouraging and joyful and does a good job of giving "tough love" when needed. She is so knowledgeable. I would recommend anyone to work with Gail for a great investment in themselves.

This location is under new ownership, and the quality has declined significantly! Many of the…read morestrong reviews appear to reflect the prior ownership (roughly 2017-2022), which is the experience I originally had--and it was completely different. Under the previous team, the nurse practitioners and weight-loss counselors were knowledgeable, engaged, and genuinely coached you through the program. They understood the weekly metrics/results, could explain them clearly, and offered specific, practical adjustments based on your progress. You also received a welcome kit (tote, mixing cup, etc.), and basic tools like food logs were provided without extra charges. Now, the experience feels rushed and surface-level. The current staff relies heavily on scripted conversations and does not seem equipped to interpret weekly results or provide meaningful, individualized guidance. On top of that, items that were previously included (like food logs) are now an added cost, and overall materials/support look cheaply pared down. To be clear: the program itself can work. But the knowledgeable guidance and accountability that made it effective at this location are no longer there. I would not spend my money here based on my current experience. It's so disappointing. The counselors and nurse practitioner don't seem to have completed or followed the program themselves, and it makes the coaching feel less credible.

After years of yo yo dieting, I had given up on myself and weight ballooned up to close to 350 pounds. When I called Sheryl, my eating was completely out of control. I needed someone to help me to gain control of my eating habits and my weight. Sheryl's approach was much different than the other plans I had tried before. During our first session she spent two hours asking me what I ate daily and designed a plan around the foods I liked to eat. Yes, you still need to eat nutritional foods to lose weight, but thankfully you aren't restricted to carrots and lettuce. :). There are no prepacked foods, or shots necessary to start to lose weight on Sheryl's plan. After a short time on the plan, I stopped craving the foods that sends my eating out of control. I also found it easy to get back on the plan on few occasions when I strayed. So far with Sheryl's help I have lost 60lbs, and I am confident with what I have learned, I can remain in control during my weight loss journey. It is also great to know that Sheryl is there to give you accountability, and help guide you when you hit a plateau. Sheryl really cares out her client. As my weight has come down, Sheryl has become a friend and has given me advice on how to better handle other parts of my life. My only regret about working with Sheryl, was that I did not meet her years ago.

It was an extraordinary visit…read more Anna was patient and focused while hearing my issues and was willing to spend time finding the root cause rather than just treating my symptoms. She very carefully diagnosed my condition, and then worked hard to find a solution that would address everything I needed. It was truly remarkable. In addition, my experience with Janelle, the coordinator, was also wonderful. She was very thorough and patient and helped me to understand not only each of the items I would now be taking, but also what their purpose was, and any suggestions on how to apply them most effectively. What could've been a very overwhelming set of follow up items, turned into a very simple and clear plan that I can easily follow. I'm so grateful to have found this wonderful practice, as well as Anna and the entire team there! Thank you for taking such good care of me. I believe we are going to form a long-term partnership, and the result will be infinitely better health for me from now on.
