Your health, from the inside out

Functional medicine is a person-centered, integrative approach to healthcare that focuses on identifying and addressing root causes, rather than just treating symptoms, focusing on overall well being, accounting for your unique health story and lifestyle.

Key features of functional medicine:

  • Root Cause Focus:

    As functional medicine practitioners we work hard to find the underlying cause of your chronic health issue, looking for imbalances in the body's systems, genetic predispositions, and environmental exposures. 

  • Personalised Approach:

    We recognize that every mind, body and health history is unique, so treatment plans are tailored to your individual biology, needs and circumstances. 

  • Holistic View:

    We consider the interconnectedness of all your body's systems and how they affect each other - so we never just treat symptoms in isolation.

  • Lifestyle Integration:

    We emphasise the importance of lifestyle choices, including diet, exercise, stress management, and sleep, in supporting your health and preventing disease.  Our goal is optimal health!

  • Patient Empowerment:

    As the client - living in your body, your are an active partner in your own care, understanding and taking responsibility for your well-being. 

I don’t just treat symptoms; I listen deeply, tracing your health story back to its roots - understanding all of you.

Together, we design a plan to restore balance, always striving for optimal health! Imagine clear, healing waters returning to your life, allowing you to feel really well, move with vitality, showing up fully in your life.

Kind words from clients

“I felt something was seriously wrong, but according to doctors, all was fine. I was at the end of the line. With Monique I discovered how disconnected I was from all the things my body had been trying to tell me for a very long time. After 9 months I have so much energy, I feel more connected to myself and can listen to my body better. I have learned how sleep, meditation and food can be healing. If I had not started working with Monique, I honestly think something really bad would have happened... If you are in the same boat - Listen to your body and commit to functional medicine with Monique. Trust your instinct, trust the process.”

-Marloes Herber - Outdoor Education teacher, wife and mother of twins

“When I hit a wall with modern medicine, I knew I needed a different approach. I reached out to Monique, feeling like I had nothing to lose. It turned out to be a life-changing decision. Monique did not treat me like a patient, or a number, but as an actual person. I highly recommend her”

-Antonia Leckie, Conservation Consultant

Frequently Asked Questions

Have questions?

  • I offer a sliding scale to make my services accessible while maintaining the highest level of personalized care.

    Payment is made in advance, and I offer flexible payment plans for longer programmes. Everything is clearly laid out before we begin—no hidden costs or unexpected add-ons. If testing is needed, I’ll also walk you through those options transparently.

    For all programmes, payment details can be be discussed during your Discovery Call.

    Please reach out for further details on pricing, as it may vary depending on location, needs, and scope.

  • All sessions can take place virtually, which means you can join from wherever you are in the world. I work with clients across time zones and regions. All you need is a stable internet connection and a quiet space.If we can meet in person that is always a bonus and depending on where you are located in Kenya, this is sometimes possible and really helpful.

  • Occasionally, yes. I host immersive, in-person retreats and group healing experiences in East Africa. These are deeply restorative spaces that bring together functional medicine, reconnection practices, and community. You can join my mailing list to hear when the next one opens.

  •  Our work is collaborative, whole-person, and never rushed. I draw on the principles of functional medicine, the latest evidence in systems biology, and ancestral wisdom—holding space not only for symptoms but for the story beneath them. This is not just about lab results or protocols; it’s about deep listening, re-patterning, and coming back to your body’s wisdom.

  •  After your free discovery call, if we move forward together, I’ll send you a set of comprehensive intake forms. These go far beyond the usual medical history—they invite reflection on your early life, environment, food, stress, trauma, menstrual and digestive health, and much more. It’s a deep dive, and it matters. The more context I have, the better I can support you.

  •  Sometimes yes, sometimes no. A lot of healing can happen without tests. But when testing is necessary, I use high-quality, functional labs to get to the root of what's happening—gut health, hormones, nutrient levels, toxins, and more. We'll always discuss options and costs before moving forward, and you’ll never be pushed into testing that doesn’t feel aligned.

  • If you’ve landed here, something in you is searching.

    Maybe your body has been speaking louder lately—through fatigue, inflammation, burnout, pain, or just a quiet knowing that things are out of balance. 

    You’re in the right place if: 

    • You feel disconnected from your body and want to come home to yourself.

    • You've tried conventional routes, but your symptoms persist—and you know there’s more to the story.

    • You're curious about how your early life, emotional patterns, and environment are shaping your health today.

    • You’re ready to invest time, energy, and attention in a process of deep, holistic healing—not just symptom management.

    You and I will work in partnership—and it takes time, trust, and a willingness to listen deeply to the body’s own intelligence.

    This work isn’t for everyone—and that’s okay.

    This work may not be for you if you’re seeking a quick fix, a one-off supplement, or someone else to ‘solve’ your health for you.

  • 1, Reach Out & Have a Conversation
    Start by getting in touch with me for a no-obligation, 20-minute discovery call. This is your chance to tell me about your health journey—what’s been working, what hasn’t, and what you’re hoping to achieve. It’s also an opportunity for you to ask any questions about how functional medicine can support your healing. Together, we’ll see if we’re a good fit to work together.

    2, Complete Your Intake & Share Your Story
    If we decide to move forward, I’ll send you a comprehensive intake questionnaire that covers all aspects of your life—physical health, mental and emotional well-being, and even your early life experiences. This detailed information will help me understand the full picture of your health. While many issues can be addressed through conversation and lifestyle changes alone, sometimes comprehensive lab tests from trusted functional medicine labs are necessary to dig deeper. But rest assured, everything is always based on what your body needs.

    3, Create Your Personalised Healing Plan
    After reviewing your intake forms, I’ll design a personalised plan tailored just for you. This is where we really start to get to the heart of your health. We’ll explore all options available to you—from dietary changes and supplements to lifestyle shifts and potential lab tests. Together, we’ll map out the steps for you to start feeling better.

    4, Ongoing Support & Transformation
    As you begin your healing journey, I’ll be right here with you. Through regular check-ins—whether face-to-face or virtually—I’ll support you with adjustments to your plan, ongoing feedback, and guidance. This is a partnership: you won’t be navigating this on your own. We’ll keep your health evolving as we learn together.

  • That’s okay. You’re not expected to have it all figured out. Healing can feel like a big step—and sometimes even booking the call feels like climbing a small mountain. If you're hovering over the button thinking “Do I really want to open this box?”—you’re not alone. The first step is simply a conversation.

    There’s no pressure, no judgment, and definitely no green juice initiation ceremony. Just a kind, honest conversation to explore if this feels like the right fit for you, right now. Come as you are.

  • It depends on your needs. Some people start with a 3-month container to reset and explore root causes. Others continue longer to support deeper transformation. We’ll talk about the right pace for your life, health, and resources. This isn’t about a “quick fix”—it’s about creating space for real, sustainable change.


  • Yes, I do. Health is relational, and sometimes family-based healing is what’s needed. If you’re a parent seeking support for a child or teen, we’ll work together to create a safe, supportive environment that honours both your child’s voice and your family’s reality.

  • Many of my clients have tried multiple approaches before finding their way here. What’s different in this work is the depth, the personalisation, and the way we bring the whole of you—body, mind, spirit, ancestry, and ecology—into the process. I won’t give you a generic plan. I’ll walk beside you as we find what truly supports your healing.
