Welcome

to Your Journey 2 a Healthier You

Transforming Lives Through Personalized Wellness and Weight Loss in Washington State.

"The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step."

The first step is making yourself and your health a priority.  I offer personalized care by identifying modifiable risk factors for chronic disease (such as heart disease, diabetes, cancer and stroke) of which weight management and therapeutic lifestyle change (TLC) is often at the core of these illnesses.  I partner with individuals aged 17 and up, you will not have to walk this journey alone.  I offer support and guidance based on your unique needs and circumstances, as we navigate the path to better health

Client Success Stories

I see Karin Heusted once a month and I look forward to it. My weight loss has been slow but consistent. She celebrates even my small wins when I don’t think I deserve it. Karin is so encouraging. She always has encouraging goals and tips and I do better knowing she’ll remember to ask me about the goals we set. I would not have been consistent with my weight loss without her.

Kelli

After 35 years of failed diets, Karin has finally taught me how to get healthy. Karin, ARNP is a vital part of my journey and I could not have done it without her. Highly recommend!

Susan

From the very first consultation, Karin Heusted’s warm and compassionate demeanor put me at ease. Her once-a-month sessions have become the highlight of my journey, as I eagerly look forward to her guidance, encouragement, and the invaluable tools she provides.
