Hi, I'm Kelsey Shepperd, the proud owner of Shepperding Wellness, where I combine my passion for nutrition with a functional medicine approach to support my clients in achieving optimal health and wellness. As a registered dietitian and a mother of four, I understand firsthand the importance of balancing life, health, and personal goals. My journey has been shaped by my background as a competitive collegiate gymnast and my academic career, which led me to earn a master’s degree in sports nutrition. During that time, I also worked as a personal trainer and fitness instructor, allowing me to blend the science of nutrition with the art of physical fitness.
As my career evolved, I dove deeper into the realm of functional nutrition therapy, where I gained specialized knowledge in analyzing comprehensive health data, including stool analysis, micronutrient and genetic panels, hormone testing, and food sensitivity panels. This training enables me to take a comprehensive, whole-body approach when addressing my clients' health concerns.
I specialize in helping individuals manage weight, pre-diabetes, diabetes, cardiovascular health, high blood pressure, and hypertension. Additionally, I work with those suffering from food sensitivities or allergies, IBS, PCOS, and thyroid disorders. Having been diagnosed with Hashimoto’s after the birth of my third child, I intimately understand the challenges of managing autoimmune conditions. My personal journey has empowered me to support others navigating similar health struggles by focusing on healing through diet and lifestyle changes.
What drives me is the belief that our bodies are interconnected systems, not isolated parts, and that addressing health holistically leads to the most profound, long-lasting results. I approach each client as a unique individual, tailoring plans to their specific needs while offering accountability and support every step of the way.
Together, we’ll work to uncover the root causes of your health concerns and piece together the puzzle, guiding you back to the healthiest, happiest version of yourself. I’m here to empower you to take control of your health and embrace the vitality you deserve.
