About Me

Laura McDermott
Certified Integrative Nutrition Health Coach

I am passionate about health and wellness and hope to support others with their health transformations. In March of 2016 I became certified as a health coach through the Institute for Integrative Nutrition. I grew up in a health minded family, however when I first got married I sort of rebelled against this mindset for a bit. Back then I thought I can offer fruit loops and donuts to my young family. My turning point was in 2000, when my five year old son, bright, witty, and outgoing was diagnosed with Tourette’s Syndrome, an involuntary motor and vocal tic disorder. The pediatric neurologist said, “He has tics, he needs medication.” I wasn’t completely opposed to medication, but I knew that wasn’t my first course of action for my son. I started to research information on the condition and everything I read pointed to diet, supplements and exercise as being helpful natural treatments. Health and wellness became important to me, as I rolled up my sleeves and started to improve on my family’s diet by removing all the artificial colors, preservatives, and excess sugar from our home. My son’s tics decreased by half. He is now 20 years old and in the past 15 years with his condition, I can proudly say that he has never been on medication. Witnessing the amazing benefits of diet and nutrition I began to read and learn as much as I could on the differences a healthy diet and lifestyle makes on a healthy lifestyle. As a mother of four today I work diligently to keep my family healthy and happy.

I currently serve as the Integrative Nutrition Health Coach for McDermott & Bull Executive Search. In this capacity I work in group and individual settings educating, coaching, and partnering with employees to support them in achieving their health and wellness goals.

I use the technique of bio-individuality knowing that what works for one person may not work for another. I tailor my coaching to support each person with their own individual needs and goals. In a group setting I provide helpful health and nutrition information beneficial to the group as a whole. Working with me will help you make changes to be your healthiest self and my hope is that you will then enjoy good health for years to come.

As a coach, I put the power back in YOUR hands.
