Hi, I’m Kelsey Shepperd, founder of Shepperding Wellness, where I help individuals get to the root cause of their health concerns through a personalized, functional medicine approach.
As a Registered Dietitian, mom of four, former collegiate gymnast, and Master’s-trained sports nutrition specialist, I understand firsthand the balance between performance, family life, and sustainable wellness. My background in athletics and fitness laid the foundation for my passion for nutrition — but my own diagnosis of Hashimoto’s after the birth of my third child transformed my career. It deepened my commitment to looking beyond surface-level symptoms and into the underlying drivers of disease.
Today, I specialize in functional nutrition therapy, analyzing advanced labs including stool testing, micronutrient panels, genetics, hormone testing, and food sensitivities. I work with clients navigating weight resistance, insulin dysregulation, thyroid conditions, cardiovascular risk, PCOS, digestive disorders, and autoimmune concerns.
I believe the body is an interconnected system — not a collection of isolated symptoms. By addressing inflammation, gut health, hormones, blood sugar, and cellular function together, we create lasting, meaningful change.
My role is to guide, educate, and hold you accountable as we piece together your unique health puzzle — so you can reclaim your energy, confidence, and vitality.
Let’s get to the ROOT. Start somewhere today.
I support women and families navigating complex, chronic health conditions. I work with clients managing Hashimoto’s and other thyroid disorders, PCOS, pre-diabetes and type 2 diabetes, hypertension, cardiovascular disease, IBS, food sensitivities, autoimmune conditions, and weight loss resistance. I also support children with eczema, digestive issues, and behavior-related gut concerns using a root-cause, whole-body approach.
