By the latter part of the 90’s I realized that the
time had come for a school that would teach holistic nutrition while
integrating both the information put forth by the American Dietetics
Association on one end of the spectrum, and the excitement of the
implications of new discoveries in quantum physics on the other end.
And so I began to weave together a curriculum that would present a
core of ideas, principles, science, and application to real life
situations. My commitment has been to inspire students to form their
own conclusions concerning their professional directions within this
burgeoning field, as well as to fulfill their personal potential by
helping them move forward in their journey toward wellness.
Our first nutrition program started in 1999 at Nutrition
Therapy Institute. We have changed a great deal since the first
class. The curriculum has evolved into one that challenges the mind
and provokes students to find their own creativity. We have
redefined and refined our mission. We have extended our community
and seen the positive effects of our graduates on the community at
large. We are making plans for the future and feel excited to
welcome new students who are committed to the values we espouse:
Fulfillment of life’s potential through optimal health
Respect and gratitude for the abundance of our environment
Commitment to supporting local organic farming
Personal responsibility for health and wellbeing
Creation of community among students, graduates and affiliates
Achievement of high academic standards
Competency as counselors and educators in the practice of
nutrition therapy
As you read through our website, you will be assessing whether this
is the school for you. We look forward to
working with you personally in your decision making process, so
please feel free to contact us by phone or email with any questions.
Wishing you the fulfillment of your potential,
Char Leberer, ND, CN, CMT
