Functional Health Coach

NBC-HWC A-CFHC

Board Certified Functional Health Coach Laura Krippner

As a Board-Certified Functional Health Coach, I specialize in helping women navigate the challenges of perimenopause and ADHD. My approach blends my expertise in functional medicine with a deep understanding of the unique struggles women face in midlife. My journey into health coaching started after personally struggling with autoimmune disease and a lack of answers from traditional healthcare. My experience led me to a path of self-discovery and healing, where I became passionate about helping others uncover the root causes of their health challenges. Initially, I focused on working with women who were experiencing hair loss—helping them to restore their hair and confidence by addressing underlying hormonal imbalances, stress, and nutrition. You can still find my courses on hair loss. However, my own personal experience with ADHD in adulthood opened up a whole new chapter. Like many women, I was diagnosed later in life, and I quickly realized how ADHD was influencing not just my health but my whole approach to life. Thanks to my ADHD hyper-focus I undertook additional training in both menopause and ADHD coaching. My goal is to support other women navigating late-diagnosed ADHD, helping them to feel empowered and reclaim their lives through practical, non-medication-based strategies. Through coaching, I support women to gain control over their health, manage their ADHD symptoms, and find practical, sustainable solutions to create lasting change. Whether you're dealing with ADHD, perimenopause, or a combination of both, I offer a supportive, evidence based approach tailored to where you are right now.

How to buy

The course is designed for self-study online. Once completed you can choose to include coaching to support the areas where you might need additional support.

Testimonials

aka what it's like to work with me

Less drama!

Gabrielle

I am so grateful to have met Laura, and I feel so much better because of her help. I wish I had met Laura 13 years earlier – it would have saved me so much drama!

Eye lashes have started to grow!

Joanne

We can see the little spots appearing on his scalp with some fine hair peeping through in parts. Fine fair eye lashes have started to grow which is great as we haven't seen that since he lost all of his hair.

Heal from within!

Michelle

I am so happy I came across Laura’s page and reached out to her as she has helped me get into the right mindset to change my lifestyle so I will benefit from it in the long run as will my AI condition. I have learned that we must heal from within in order to heal on the outside Thank you Laura and keep up the amazing work.

Laura really knows how to motivate!

Anne-Marie

Laura really knows how to motivate, and made me feel comfortable when sharing my personal goals/obstacles. My biggest success whilst working with Laura has been learning about the importance of routine with regards to eating at regular intervals to maintain energy and blood sugar levels, and creating a schedule to suit my lifestyle and body clock.

Encouragement and Empathy

Jessica

In the last year I have lost excess weight, improved my sleep, reduced anxiety and increased my physical activity and Laura's encouragement and empathy were key in my success.

Life-changing experience

This is what I wish I'd known back in 2016!

FAQs

  • How do I know that this will work for me (or my child)?

    This course aims to give a wide overview of the causes of alopecia. Not all of it will be relevant to your specific situation (thankfully!).
    You have to take the information which resonates with your hair loss and implement the suggested steps. Everyone who I've worked with so far has had regrowth!
    If you're a parent looking to help your child, I'd advise the monthly group coaching option as the most effective course.

  • Does this course tell me which supplement will help me to regrow my hair?

    No. There is not one supplement which will address everyone's root cause. This course does not offer a one size fits all approach. Your hair loss is unique to you. Different strategies are offered depending on the issue. The key stages are to get inflammation under control and then help you to be optimally healthy.

  • How is this different from working with a dermatologist or trichologist?

    Most dermatologists and trichologists start with hair (i.e on the outside). My protocol works by getting to the root of the problem and identifying your unique triggers. We work on gut health, sleep and stress management. Typically if you're using a prescription steroid treatment your regrowth will stop when you stop using it. This program is not a short term fix.

  • What if it regrows then I lose it again?

    If that happens you return to the protocol, you have all of the tools that you need to support your hair growth. My clients become very aware of how to manage their personal hair loss triggers.

  • How is Functional Medicine different from the normal/conventional kind?

    FM views us all as being different genetically and biochemically. Your hair loss will not be caused by the same factors as mine. Your body is intelligent, and has the ability to heal. FM aims to get to the bottom of what's causing the problem in the first place. Conventional doctors tend to focus on which drugs/medicines match your symptoms without getting to the bottom of what's causing the problem in the first place.

  • Are you medically trained?

    No. As a Functional Health Coach I'm an expert in behaviour change. I can support you to make the changes that you might find difficult: for example, how to improve your diet to include more protein and fats, how to improve your sleep, create a stress management practice, improve your mental fitness, prioritise your health. I refer out to medically trained professionals for testing as this is outside of a Health Coach's scope of practice.

  • So is this course really Health Coaching?

    This course isn't coaching it's pure information and resources which will be enough for some people. Others might want to add on coaching which is where the magic starts. I've created this course to help as many people as possible have access to the info that they need. This is the information that would have saved my son from losing all of his hair.

  • Does this program work for everyone?

    Yes, so far it's worked for all of my clients (full disclosure: none have been vegetarian or vegan). That said, they're highly motivated and prepared to do the work. It's been successful for clients with alopecia areata, totalis and universalis. It's not recommended for those with Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia (cicatricial), if this is you please message me and I'll point you in the direction of the latest research.

I wasted years on treatments which didn't work...

Regrowth can start in as little as two months!
