Food As Medicine Holistic Health Counseling was created by Erin Livers to teach individuals, families and groups how to nourish and care for their bodies, minds and spirits as a complement to their standard healthcare. In 2010, Neely Quinn joined Food As Medicine, and together, they offer nutrition therapy consultations/services for individuals, companies and groups in the Boulder-Denver area. Their private consults for individuals are available in person or via phone/internet if travel to Boulder is prohibitive. Greater details about the services they offer are found throughout this site.

“Our culture encourages us to look for the solutions to our problems outside of ourselves, when they lie within us all along.”  —Erin Livers

Holistic Health Counseling addresses the whole person; diet, lifestyle, genetic and cultural heredity, and environment. We begin with your history (the story of who you are), then taking all symptoms into account, we work together to help you reach your goals for physical health and mental, emotional and spiritual well-being. While our guiding principle is to use food as medicine, we may also incorporate lifestyle coaching, metabolic testing, body-centered techniques, imagery and/or intuitive counseling into our sessions. As nutrition therapists, some of the health concerns we support and help remedy are:

1. digestive disorders
   

2. blood sugar imbalances
   

3. hormonal imbalances: men & women
   

4. fatigue or low energy
   

5. weight gain
   

6. sleep issues
   

7. children’s health issues
   

8. age-related decline
   

9. chronic fatigue/fibromyalgia
   

10. cardiovascular disease
    

11. autoimmune conditions/thyroid disorders
    

12. stress, anxiety and depression/neurotransmitter imbalances
    

13. seasonal allergies and chemical sensitivities
    

14. injury and surgery recovery
    

15. varied and unspecific unresolved symptoms
    

We specialize in supporting those clients with chronic conditions related to food sensitivities, allergies, and intolerances: Ulcerative Colitis, Crohn’s disease, Celiac disease, GERD, IBS and other digestive issues, Interstitial Cystitis, migraines, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, ADD/ADHD, eczema, sinusitis, ear infections and others.

As we believe that each of us is an individual with our own biochemical make-up, we design meal plans, cleanse programs, create recipes, and make recommendations to meet the specific needs of you and your family. In order to help you regain balance, strength and vitality we may also make recommendations that rely upon our knowledge of herbs and supplemental nutrients. Our philosophy of health has also been greatly influenced by the principles of Functional Medicine/Nutrition. Find out more here: Functional Medicine.
