About Katie Driessens

Hi, I'm Katie Driessens, RD, LDN, CDCES, CGN —a Functional Medicine-aligned Registered Dietitian, plus a rare insurance accepting Dr. Shoemaker CIRS Proficiency Partner, and Dr. Jill Crista-trained practitioner specializing in root-cause wellness. My passion for helping others heal stems from my own journey. As a CIRS survivor who lost approximately 75% of my hair due to toxic indoor mold exposure, I experienced firsthand how mold can contribute to chronic bodily dysfunction that often goes overlooked in conventional healthcare. That experience ultimately led me to create an online, self paced Mold Recovery Program and to also dedicate my practice to helping others 1 on 1 uncover and address the root causes of their health symptoms and concerns. Today, I help patients navigate complex chronic health issues through advanced functional testing, precision nutrition, targeted supplementation, and practical lifestyle strategies. As one of the few functional medicine-aligned practitioners who accepts insurance, my mission is to make root-cause healthcare more accessible while maintaining an integrative stance (understanding the pros and limitations of both western and functional care). Whether you're dealing with mold illness, CIRS, unexplained hair loss, gut dysfunction, or chronic "your labs are normal everything is fine" but no one has been able to connect the dots on, I'm here to help you stop guessing, start getting answers, and pursue evidenced based interventions that are individualized.
