Specialized Care for Digestive, Hormonal, and Metabolic Health

Our approach

At Hanley & Simpson Nutrition Counseling we take an organic, client-centered approach to digestive health, women’s health, weight management, and performance, building sustainable habits through care, clarity, and evidence-based guidance. Our mission is to provide grounded, intentional nutrition care that supports real lives — not rigid rules.

We believe nutrition should feel supportive, flexible, and empowering, with room for both structure and nuance.

Support For

We help clients manage digestive conditions and the eating challenges that often come with them:
- Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS-C, IBS-D, and mixed type), including guidance on the low FODMAP diet
- Bloating, reflux, constipation, diarrhea, and acid reflux symptoms
- Food intolerances, sensitivities, and celiac disease, including support with gluten-free diets
- Disorders of the upper GI tract, including gastroparesis, gastritis, and functional dyspepsia
- Disordered Eating Considerations: We understand that digestive symptoms and eating behaviors often overlap. Our approach emphasizes intuitive eating and restoring balance after chronic restriction or elimination diets. We support clients navigating fear, stress, or guilt around food, eating to avoid uncomfortable GI symptoms, or feeling out of control around eating. For those with a history of disordered eating, we focus on identifying food triggers in a way that reduces symptoms while keeping the relationship with food at the center of care.
- Thyroid disorders, including Hashimoto’s thyroiditis and hypothyroidism
- Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) and insulin resistance
- Perimenopause and menopause symptom management
- Endometriosis and other hormone-related conditions
- Sustainable, restriction-free weight loss rooted in long-term behavior change
- Lean muscle preservation & recovery during weight loss or training
- Athletic performance optimization for recreational and competitive exercisers
GLP-1 & GIP medication support:
- Breaking through weight loss plateaus
- Preventing malnutrition and nutrient deficiencies
- Preserving lean body mass
- Tapering off medications for lasting results

What People Are Saying

I came to Nadia Hanley, because I was in serious need of professional weight loss support. What I found was exactly that, combined with an immediate feeling of familiarity and comfort discussing what is usually a very sensitive subject. She provides constant support through regular one-on-one meetings and I was excited to learn that she keeps herself attuned to my progress through regular monitoring of my daily food journal. I’ve tried countless approaches to weight loss, and I have never experienced this level of support and encouragement in the process. I’m so glad I found her!
I have been working with Melanie for the last 6 months and cannot recommend her enough. She is exceptionally knowledgable and is able to translate her knowledge to clients well (I'm learning a lot!) while also being a great listener and partner in health. I have noticed positive transformations in my health, body, and attitude around nutrition. It is amazing that she is 100% covered by my insurance as well, so meeting regularly and sticking to my plan has been so easy. So grateful for her expertise!
I’ve struggled with my weight for years and always felt stuck between gimmicky diets and quick-fix programs that never worked. Hanley & Simpson have been exactly the support I’ve been searching for. Melanie takes the time to really listen, explain things in a way that makes sense, and guide me toward realistic, sustainable changes.
For the first time, I feel like I’m building a healthy relationship with food and my body. Working with Melanie has been such a positive life-changing experience. I wholeheartedly recommend her!
Nadia has been so helpful in helping me figure out which foods work for me so I can maintain energy while balancing a busy schedule. I am an actress and prepping for a big performance, and also an avid runner. She helped me figure out foods that would help me recover and stay energized through training and rehearsals.
With the skills and tips she gave I feel like I've established patterns I will stick to for a healthier lifestyle.
