Cheryl Fawn, CHHC, ADDP
Cheryl Fawn, CHHC, AADP was trained at the renowned Institute for Integrative Nutrition. She has certification from Columbia University and the American Association of Drugless Practitioners.
Her passion for nutrition began as a means of healing herself and ultimately extended to healing others. Cheryl works specifically with clients who suffer from eating disorders and emotional eating, as well as those with food allergies and sensitivities. She addresses emotional eating and eating disorders from a holistic and spiritual perspective while also addressing medical issues which may have contributed to the client's feeling of losing control.
Cheryl suffered from an eating disorder for 10 years. Additionally, in her mid-twenties she was diagnosed with Celiac Disease, an intolerance to the gluten, the protein found in wheat, rye, barley, and oats. Because of her own experience, Cheryl understands the issues her clients are dealing with first-hand and is able to get to the root of the problem.
Cheryl believes that our need to eat emotionally is simply the body's attempt to take care of itself and fill a void, whether it be in the area of career, relationships, finances, spirituality, or life purpose. She recognizes that emotional eaters are usually extremely food-sensitive and suffer from hidden food allergies and intolerances. Healing happens when her clients begin to understand where their issues are coming from, no longer blaming themselves or feeling shame or guilt. In time, they discover a sense of control over their mind and body and a mastery over their lives. Their love for themselves then radiates out to all that surround them, improving their lives and the lives of those around them dramatically.
Cheryl also owns a directory of alternative health practitioners and businesses called The Healing Directory. When she is not health counseling, Cheryl is acting for film and television and spending time with loved ones. She appreciates the arts, music, and singing. She also enjoys spiritual films and books. She embraces life and appreciates all the love and beauty that surrounds her. |
