Welcome!
Creating good health can be challenging. I am here to make this part of your life easier by offering medication-free, natural solutions to your health complaints so that you can feel and look your best.
I sincerely want you to live a long, healthy and prosperous filled life. If your priority is to find the underlying cause(s) instead of just treating your symptoms then you’ve come to the right place.
About Alison Held, M.S., CMTA:
My clients receive the best line of care possible. I make it a priority to stay up-to-date with the latest trends, scientific research and clinical applications. I hold a Master of Science degree in Human Nutrition from University of Bridgeport’s Nutrition Institute and have studied under some of the most influential practitioners in holistic and integrative nutrition.
Additionally, as a Certified Metabolic Typing Advisor (CMTA) I create eating programs specifically designed for my client’s biochemical individuality. Currently I am completing my studies in Functional Diagnostic Nutrition (FDN), a holistic discipline that unites functional laboratory assessments with Metabolic Typing to identify any imbalances, dysfunction and underlying conditions at the root of many common health complaints.
The emotional component can also be connected to many common health complaints. However, many nutrition related practitioners never address this important aspect. Through my training in the Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) and the Psychology of Kinesiology (Psych-K), I am able to work closely with my clients to achieve this deeper level of healing.
Healthful Direction’s Mission Statement:
To empower individuals to become the happiest, healthiest version of themselves through sound nutrition and emotional well-being.
I Walk My Talk:
You should know that I walk my talk. Prior to becoming a nutritionist, I worked one-on-one with local practitioners for many years to address a doctor’s diagnosis of irritable bowel and other health complaints. Today I follow my specific Metabolic Type “diet” by selecting and preparing the appropriate foods and ratios for my body. I have undergone several different laboratory assessments and continue to do this in order to keep my health in check.
