Welcome!
My name is Tamara Flanders and I am a Holistic Nutritional Health Counselor. I offer a selection
of services that are all geared towards helping you realize and reach your goals in health and nutrition. I am located in
Saratoga county, and serve the areas of Albany, Saratoga, Schenectady, and Troy. Services are also available over the
phone for those who are not local.
I am a graduate of SUNY New Paltz where I received my BA in Women's
Studies and Secondary Education. Post graduate, I studied in Albuquerque NM at The Art of Birthing Center in their Doula training
program. My Holistic Health Counseling education is from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition in NYC. There, I was
able to study with Deepak Chopra, Andrew Weil, Mark Hyman, Barry Sears,Eric Schlosser, and many other holistic healers.
Through this school, accredited by Columbia University and the American Association for Drugless Practitioners, I established a
solid foundation in alternative healing methods and natural wellness.
I believe firmly in the connection between
the mind and body when it comes to health and wellness. My six month counseling program will take you through not only optimizing
your health through the foods that you eat, but by looking at your life and helping you find balance and joy in all that you
do. My program allows us to meet twice a month, for an hour each time.
