The Rosemary House Method
Hi, I’m Mary. I help women who are tired of treating symptoms and want to treat the problem instead. Most of the women I work with come to me after they’ve tried so many things — doctor visits, tests, supplements, diets — and still don’t feel like themselves. Persistent digestive issues, changes in their cycle or their mood or their sleep…Something is not right.
They’re often told their labs are “normal,” that nothing is technically wrong, or that they just need to manage stress better. And yet, in their bodies, they know something is off. They feel tired, out of balance, disconnected from how they used to feel — and unheard along the way. Something is clearly wrong, you just don’t know what it is. Whether you feel dismissed and unheard, have lab numbers that concern you and your doctors, or have received a diagnosis -or several- functional medicine can help you feel your very best.
Many women just want to get back to feeling good- like they used to when younger, but I also see how often young women are dismissed or told they are too young for anything to be seriously wrong. As a mom to daughters in their 20’s I see firsthand how confusing and frustrating it can be to navigate health concerns when you know you should be in the best health of your life. This is a powerful window to support the body early, build strong foundations, and prevent years of frustration later on.
As a functional nutrition counselor and holistic health practitioner, I support women who are ready for a different kind of conversation about their health — one that looks at the whole picture, not just isolated symptoms. One that takes into account your history, your story and your unique body. At Rosemary House we take note of all signs and symptoms the body is communicating, but rather than treating symptoms -we go to the ROOT- utilizing lifestyle, nourishment and movement- because your body isn’t broken-it’s responding to it’s environment.
Functional medicine looks at the terrain your cells live in. When we nourish the soil, the body often knows exactly how to heal itself. Think of your body like a tree- the symptoms, diagnosis or disease are branches of the tree- but the true reason you are experiencing the disfunction is due to what is happening at the root. You can try to treat the symptoms but if you never go to the root, another problem sprouts somewhere else- another branch.
The Rosemary House approach is thoughtful, grounded, and evidence-informed. I do not use muscle testing. Instead, I rely on a combination of your lab interpretation when appropriate, your personal health history and lived experience, what has and hasn’t worked for you, and a deep understanding of how nutrition, hormones, digestion, stress, sleep, and daily rhythms interact. We are fearfully and wonderfully made by a great Creator, and He is also the great Healer. Everything in our bodies works in connection with the whole; your thyroid is not in a bubble, your nervous system is not in isolation and your skin is not self-contained. They are all just “kids in the swimming pool” and dependent on the health of the whole.
My approach is to work methodically in tiers- beginning with digestion, hormone balance and sleep- because these are truly the foundation of health. We dig deeper as we explore any possible deficiencies or excess in your life- and then -if needed- address the health concerns that remain -the branches of the tree- with targeted science-based holistic lifestyle, supplements, herbs and techniques.
You Are Unique
Everything is connected
All things matter
I believe the body is always communicating. When we slow down and look at the patterns — not just the numbers — we can begin to understand where support is needed and how to gently guide the body back toward balance.
I’m especially drawn to working with women of all ages in that in-between space: not acutely ill, but not well; maybe doing “all the right things,” yet still struggling. Whether you have been diagnosed with an autoimmune condition or dealing with chronic mystery symptoms, getting to the roots -shifting the soil the roots are living in- pivots your whole body toward vitality. I’m dedicated to serve women who are seeking health and vibrant life, not wishing to cover up the symptoms they are experiencing but gently nourishing their body into vibrant health. Women who want clarity instead of guesswork, and support that feels collaborative rather than prescriptive. Your life is now. Let’s make it amazing.
If you’re feeling overwhelmed, frustrated, or unsure what to try next, you don’t have to figure it out alone. My role is to walk alongside you, help you make sense of your body’s signals, and create a realistic, sustainable path toward feeling more like yourself again. I look forward to getting to know you, and working together to restore the environment your body needs to thrive. ~Mary
