Hannah Bethman

Hi! My name is Hannah and I'm a functional health coach with a master's degree in Human Nutrition. I am deeply passionate about helping people thrive through the power of nutrition and lifestyle. 

I offer one-on-one coaching to support people who are struggling with gut- and hormonal issues, like reflux, bloating, IBS, PMS & period pain, PCOS, infertility, weight issues, poor sleep, headaches, and more. 

I take a multifaceted approach to wellness. I work closely with my clients to help them investigate the root cause(s) of their chronic symptoms, and then guide them on their own unique journey of overcoming these root causes, one-by-one. 

My aim is to always look at the big picture of my clients' health struggles, taking into account multiple factors in their history, diet & lifestyle habits, unique stressors & sensitivities, supplement & medication usage, and more. I also utilize blood work and functional lab testing to help direct my approach ("test, don't guess!"). I listen carefully to my clients, and based on what we're able to uncover, I put together a comprehensive, personalized nutrition, supplement, and lifestyle plan for them. 

My Story:

My own personal journey into the world of nutrition & wellness began nearly a decade ago, after I had been struggling with life-long digestive issues (I experienced reflux, regurgitation, stomach pain, and nausea almost daily). I also suffered from a lot of hormonal symptoms for many years (fatigue, migraines, PMS, etc.).

To make a long-story-short, I came to realize the power of food to nourish and support my body...... my health dramatically improved, and in more ways than I expected! I began to view nutrition as a foundational "piece of the puzzle" for optimal health and wellbeing, and have been passionate about it ever since. 

My journey didn’t end there though, as I eventually understood that many aspects of our lifestyles are just as important for our health, including sleep, movement, stress management, light exposure, toxin exposure, and even community, connection, and emotional resilience.

As I’ve come across many “bumps” and obstacles along the way, I’ve also learned that shifting your mindset is often key to moving forward, and that the journey isn’t about perfection in every step you take, but about continually learning, growing, and evolving.

I have experienced firsthand and witnessed countless times in others how wonderful and powerful our bodies truly are; they are capable of so much more than we give credit to! Ultimately, when we detach from and remove the things in our lives that drag us down & make us ill..... and we add in things to our lives that nourish us and build us up..... healing is made possible.

I wholeheartedly believe in the power of this work, and would be honored to support you on your own healing journey.
