Hi, I’m Marianne.

I’m a Registered Dietitian specializing in functional nutrition, and I help people get to the why behind their symptoms.

If you’re tired of being told “everything looks normal” while you still feel bloated, exhausted, inflamed, or stuck—you're not broken, and you’re not imagining it. Your body is communicating, and together we’ll learn how to listen.

Using a functional, evidence-based approach, I look at how your gut, hormones, blood sugar, stress, and lifestyle work together—so we can create a plan that supports real, sustainable healing.

Based in Boise, I am a Functional Dietitian and Nutritionist and mom of three who thrives on outdoor adventure and community connection. With degrees in Social Work and Nutrition Science, I specialize in group teaching because I value the patient relationships that form in collaborative settings. 

Reviews:

The Reset & Renew Elimination Diet has been one of the most impactful health investments I’ve made. I’ve completed it three times over the past 15 years, and each time it has restored my energy, sharpened my mental clarity, improved my sleep, and reduced inflammation and joint pain. By the end of six weeks, I experienced a significant improvement in how I felt day to day.

What stands out most isn’t just the physical progress. It’s how I felt in my body. I experienced a deep sense of steadiness and comfort, like my body was finally getting the support it needed. I felt balanced, calm, and genuinely well.

As I approached my 50th birthday, I chose to do the program again as a symbolic act of caring for my future self. It became more than a reset. It was an investment in long-term vitality and resilience. Just as important, it gave me a deeper understanding of my body and the confidence to make choices that truly support my health.

I’m grateful this program exists and is available to those ready to take an active role in their well-being. I highly recommend it!

I am so thankful for my time with Marianne & the Nourish class I took from her. She is the most approachable and REAL person who takes time to understand her clients. She has the ability to relay her wisdom and knowledge to make it feel understandable and achievable to reach the goals set together. While we focused mainly on how food can heal our bodies, I received a comprehensive understand of the importance of a healthy life in all areas, physically, mentally, emotionally & spiritually. So thankful for Marianne! 

Our family (my wife, our two teenage sons, and I) recently took this nutrition class, and it made a noticeable difference for all of us. The information was practical and easy to apply, and it helped us understand how simple food choices can improve overall health. Since taking the class, my wife and I have lost weight. All of us saw an increase in energy, improvements in gut health, and even noticed a reduction in anxiety and stress levels. What we appreciated most was how realistic and family-friendly the approach was—it worked for busy schedules and different ages. I would highly recommend this class to any family looking to make lasting, healthy changes together.


Nourish provides a comprehensive overview of how and why to do an elimination diet.  I signed up thinking I knew something about it and was initially intimidated to learn I had overestimated my understanding. That did not matter at all. What I lacked going in was more than made up for by Marianne’s knowledge, compassion and contagious enthusiasm about functional nutrition! I went from not having any awareness of how certain symptoms I took for granted as a part of aging, were actually the result of foods I ate. I just assumed I tolerated them because I didn’t break out in hives or have any other dramatic symptoms. Marianne guided my understanding of the interplay between what I ate and how I felt across a wide spectrum of categories. She provided a wealth of resources to ensure success in spite of unexpected life circumstances that increased the challenge of my participation. I widely and heartily recommend Nourish to anyone looking to learn more about their health and feel better!!
