Root Cause Support for Children's Skin
our Root Cause Approach
If you've been searching for answers for your child’s persistent rash, eczema, or other skin concerns, chances are you’re tired of watching them struggle and wondering what else you can do to help. When the itching, redness, or irritation keeps returning despite everything you’ve tried, it can be difficult to watch your child lose sleep, miss activities, or simply not feel comfortable in their own skin.
That’s where my approach looks deeper. We explore the gut, immune, inflammatory, nutritional, and lifestyle factors that may be contributing to their skin concerns, with the goal of supporting calmer, healthier skin and helping them get back to being a kid.
If You've Tried Everything for Your Child's Skin
You've tried a lot already.
Maybe you've tried:
Prescription creams and ointments that calm your child’s skin for a while, only for the itching or irritation to return
Switching detergents, soaps, lotions, and other household products trying to figure out what might be triggering a flare
Restricting more and more foods in search of a trigger, but still not feeling any closer to understanding what’s affecting their skin
And you’re still watching your child struggle.
Maybe the itching keeps them awake at night, affects their mood or concentration, or causes them to miss sports, swimming, sleepovers, or other activities they love. You may find yourself constantly watching what they eat, what touches their skin, or whether a new patch is starting to appear. It can be exhausting to feel like so much of your family’s life revolves around trying to prevent the next flare.
When a child’s skin concerns continue despite everything you’ve tried, it may be time to look at the bigger picture. Gut health, immune function, inflammation, nutrition, and other factors may all play a role.
That’s where my approach begins. Instead of only asking, “What can we put on their skin?” we start asking, “What else might their skin be telling us?”
Our Three-Phase Approach
Skin conditions don't resolve on a fixed timeline, so our approach unfolds in three phases.
Phase 1: Preparation
We start by preparing your body for the deeper work ahead. While your baseline GI-MAP is being completed, we focus on the nutrition, sleep, digestion, and daily habits that support healthy skin and prepare you for targeted treatment.
As we move through this phase, many clients begin to see early shifts, such as less inflammation, fewer, newer breakouts, and more stable skin.
Phase 2: Treatment and Restoration
This is where we begin the deeper work together. I use your GI-MAP results, symptoms, and progress to build a treatment plan specifically for you, then adjust it along the way based on how your body and skin respond.
During this phase, most clients are seeing clearer, calmer skin, fewer flares and breakouts, and improvements in areas like digestion, sleep and energy.
Phase 3: Reassess and Maintain
This phase is about making your progress sustainable. We review your GI-MAP retest, make any final adjustments, and create a simpler maintenance plan that gives your body and skin the support they need moving forward.
By the end of this phase, most clients have significantly clearer, more stable skin and feel confident knowing how to support it long term.
Meaningful change takes time, and progress with chronic skin concerns is rarely a straight line. Your skin may improve, fluctuate, or need a different level of support as we uncover and address contributing factors.
That’s why we move through the three phases over six months. It gives us the time to see how your body responds, adjust when needed, and build on each phase before moving to the next, with the goal of creating progress that is more sustainable.

More Than a Treatment Plan
Two GI-MAP tests: A baseline test helps us identify what may need attention and informs your personalized treatment plan. Later in the program, we retest to see what has changed, what may still need support, and how to approach maintenance.
Four treatment-focused sessions: Regular one-on-one sessions across all three phases allow us to assess your progress and adjust your plan as your body and skin respond, rather than relying on the same protocol from beginning to end.
Two flexible support sessions: Book these additional sessions when you need them for help navigating stress, food, lifestyle, setbacks, or other challenges that can come up along the way.
Weekday messaging access: You’ll have access to me Monday through Friday for questions and guidance between appointments, so you don’t have to wait until your next session when something comes up.
20% savings on practitioner-grade supplements: Receive 20% off supplements ordered through Fullscript throughout the program, helping reduce the ongoing cost of your treatment plan.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Your gut and skin are closely connected. GI-MAP testing gives us a deeper look at your gut health and can help identify imbalances that may be contributing to inflammation and your skin concerns. I use these results along with your symptoms and health history to help personalize your plan.
-
In many cases, no. My approach can work alongside your current medications and skincare treatments. We’ll review what you’re using as part of your initial assessment and determine the best approach for you. I will never ask you to stop prescribed medication without working with the provider who prescribed it.
-
Everyone is different, but many clients notice early changes during the first phase, such as calmer skin, fewer breakouts, or less intense flares. More significant improvements often come as we move into deeper treatment. Progress isn’t always a straight line, which is why we adjust your plan along the way.
-
Restriction is not the goal. I want you to eat a varied, nourishing diet whenever possible. If there is a reason to temporarily remove or limit a specific food, we’ll do it thoughtfully and make sure you’re still getting the nutrition your body needs.
-
I do not participate with insurance companies. The Root Cause Skin Support Program is a private-pay service, which allows me to provide the time, testing, and personalized support that are central to my approach.
-
Yes. The program is $4,500 when paid in full, and a payment plan is available if you prefer to spread the investment out over time. Full payment options will be reviewed before you enroll.
-
Yes. My practice is fully virtual, so consultations, test reviews, treatment planning, and ongoing support can all take place from the comfort of your home. Availability may depend on where you live.
-
I work with children of all ages, beginning in infancy. My approach is always tailored to your child’s age, stage of development, nutritional needs, and individual skin concerns.
-
Babies and children can experience eczema, hives, recurring rashes, dry or irritated skin, and other skin concerns. While many are temporary, when your child’s skin keeps flaring or doesn’t seem to improve, it may be helpful to look more closely at what could be contributing.
