Ongoing functional care to rebuild your child’s health from the ground up.
Firm Foundation is my deeper, ongoing pediatric functional care program for families who are ready to move beyond clarity alone and into deeply structured, supported, root-cause healing work for their child.
Enrollment into Firm Foundation begins after a Mini Map or Clarity Consultation, so we can be sure the program is aligned with your child’s needs and your family’s capacity.
A structured container for deeper healing, not just symptom management.
Firm Foundation is for families who are ready to move from “we finally understand what’s going on” to “we’re actively rebuilding our child’s health with support.” It’s a dedicated season of care where we implement a personalized treatment-plan, fine-tune it over time, and walk together through the ups and downs of functional healing.
Personalized treatment plan
Built from your child’s story, Mini Map findings, and any additional testing we complete. This is a tailored treatment plan — not a template or protocol — created specifically for your child’s nervous system, gut–body patterns, and real life capacity.
Ongoing provider access
Regular follow-up to assess progress, adjust the plan, and respond to how your child’s body is actually responding — not just how things “should” look on paper.
Deeper functional testing (as needed)
Depending on your child’s needs, we may explore additional labs to better understand autoimmunity risk, mitochondrial stress, nutrient status, hormonal balance, and more — always discussed and agreed upon together.
Stepwise, sustainable shifts
We prioritize what will make the biggest difference without overwhelming your family. Changes are introduced in a realistic, compassionate way so you can actually live them out.
Firm Foundation is designed for families who are ready to go deeper.
A good fit if…
- You’ve completed (or plan to complete) the Mini Map or a similar clarity step
- You’re ready to commit to a season of functional healing work, not a quick fix
- You’re open to lifestyle changes, nervous system support, and targeted therapies
- You want a provider to walk with you, not just hand you a plan and disappear
- You’re looking for care that honors both science and a God-given design for the body
Not the best fit if…
- You’re only looking for a one-time visit or single prescription
- You’re not interested in making any changes at home
- You prefer care that is fully dictated by insurance coverage
- You’re seeking emergency or urgent care (ER or urgent care is more appropriate)
Real shifts. Real healing. Real hope.
Every child’s journey is unique — but the themes below echo through so many families who choose deeper, ongoing functional care.
“Our child went from daily meltdowns and constant overwhelm to being able to participate in family routines again. The difference in connection and peace in our home is something we can’t put a price on.”
— Parent of a neurodivergent child
“We didn’t realize how inflamed and uncomfortable our daughter was until we saw how calm and bright she became once her gut healed. She laughs more. She plays more. She is finally herself.”
— Parents of a 5-year-old
“We had been through specialists, scans, and endless ‘normal’ labs. Working with Kelsea gave us our first real answers. The changes in his focus, sleep, and digestion still amaze us.”
— Parent of an 8-year-old
“As our son's energy came back, so did his confidence. He started waking up without pain, eating without fear, and dreaming about his future again. We feel like we have our son back.”
— Parent of a teenager
“The biggest change? Hope. We didn’t realize how defeated we had become. Now we have a plan, support, and children who are truly healing — not just coping.”
— Parent of 2 children enrolled in Firm Foundation
“She doesn’t just treat symptoms — she teaches you how to build a healthier child from the inside out. This program changed the trajectory of our family’s life.”
— Parent of a child with chronic symptoms
Firm Foundation is by intentional enrollment — not a one-click purchase.
Because this program involves deeper work, I only welcome families into Firm Foundation when I am confident that it is clinically appropriate and a good fit for your goals, capacity, and season.
The next step if you’re interested in this level of care is to either complete the Mini Map or schedule a Clarity Consultation so we can talk through whether Firm Foundation is the right path for your child.
Firm Foundation is currently available to pediatric patients located in Florida at the time of their visit.
