Meet Emily, Founder & Lead Consultant


 BOARD CERTIFIED PHYSICIAN ASSISTANT 
FUNCTIONAL GUT HEALTH CONSULTANT
SKIN HEALTH EXPERT

My name is Emily Burger. I am a wife and mother of four! After spending two years working in Cardiology managing a multitude of chronic diseases, followed by the last twelve years working in Dermatology treating chronic inflammatory conditions like acne, rosacea, psoriasis, and hives, I started growing frustrated with the gaps in conventional care. Over the years, I've realized the conventional healthcare model often focuses on masking symptoms instead of addressing the root cause, leaving patients feeling frustrated and shackled, needing long-term medications to feel normal.

The current healthcare system is a vicious cycle of diagnose and prescribe, and nobody is really looking for the WHY. This inspired me to start Holistic Healing Consulting, a virtual consulting practice focused on gut health! As a Functional Gut Health Consultant, I guide clients on their wellness journey with a root-cause approach, no bandaids! When you sign on to be one of our clients, it is like having a private practitioner holding your hand and guiding you every step of the way on your wellness journey! 

I believe that true health begins in the gut, and I am passionate about starting where it all begins and helping you achieve true wellness that will last a lifetime. One thing that I can guarantee our private clients: you will feel seen, validated, and empowered to take control of your health. Most importantly, you will regain HOPE.


Meet Nicole, Nervous System Regulation Specialist


Hi, I’m Nicole!  I am passionate about nervous system regulation as the most effective way to heal the body once and for all. Your gut has its own nervous system, which contains over 200 million neurons. So, of course, how you feel physically, mentally, and emotionally is going to impact your gut health; and your gut health is going to impact how you feel.

That’s where learning to regulate all parts of your nervous system and working with me come into play. I will teach you how to regulate your nervous system so that you can be fully present in your body and create calm in the everyday.
Your happiness is a direct reflection of your habits, rituals, and routines. Occupational therapy is the art and science of engaging in meaningful, everyday activities. I integrate occupational therapy based strategies with somatic and spiritual practices to clear trauma, anxiety, and panic attacks. I am also trained in sensory integration, clinical hypnosis, and Rapid Resolution Therapy.

When I’m not talking nerdy science, I am living my best life with my maltipoo, Brinkley, just outside of Austin, Texas. I enjoy singing, dancing, and cooking, often all at the same time, as well as hiking and traveling the world. I work in a hospital, in the inpatient rehab unit and soon, also the NICU.

I never ask my clients to do anything I haven’t already tested for myself, and I am happy to report that I recently completed Emily’s 6 month program, with incredible results. I am grateful to be a part of this team and look forward to connecting with you. Your transformation awaits.




Meet Hannah, Certified Functional Nutrition Health Coach

Hi, I'm Hannah! I passionately believe in helping people find healing by getting to the root cause rather than treating the symptoms. In college I received a Bachelor’s Degree in Exercise Science with a minor in Health Promotion and Fitness from Houghton University, with the plan of pursuing a career in conventional medicine.

After dealing with various personal chronic GI issues and hormone imbalances, finding little to no help from western medicine, I found myself on a path of seeking help from functional medicine. This is where I learned about treating the root cause and eventually found healing through diet and lifestyle modifications. This inspired me to pursue a career helping others who are experiencing similar problems as the ones I faced! 

I believe the food that we eat can and should be used as medicine! I am passionate about helping clients learn how to do this all while still enjoying the meals they create. 

Joining Emily's team felt like a perfect fit, as her dedication to root cause healing through treating the gut resonated with my own passion for serving others. It’s a great pleasure to be part of her team, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to support you on your healing journey!


Meet Kassie, Mindset Coach, Board Certified Physician Assistant

Hi, I’m Kassie, a passionate advocate for helping busy adults embrace their inner strength, build confidence, and live authentically. 

With years of experience in personal development, I’ve learned that true transformation starts from within, and I’m here to guide you on your journey of self-discovery and growth

As a full-time working single mom, I know what it’s like to feel overwhelmed and wonder if you’re enough in the middle of life’s mess. But I also know that confidence, clarity, and self-love are possible—and I’m here to help you find them.




Meet Marketta, Breathwork Facilitator, Registered Nurse, Integrative Health Practitioner & Health Coach 

I’m Marketta Moore, a 22-year military veteran, a former nurse of 14 years, and a passionate advocate for resilience, healing, and transformation. 

I live on a small farm with my husband and four children, where we embrace the beauty of simplicity and nature. As a Breathwork facilitator, I help individuals regulate their nervous system, release emotional blocks, and rediscover balance.

 I’m committed to creating safe spaces for stress relief, clarity, and empowerment because I believe true healing starts with reconnecting to your body—you already have everything you need within.

“Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed individuals can change the world. In fact, it’s the only thing that ever has.”
