Optimizing The Gut Microbiome

Root Cause Healing


At Holistic Healing Consulting, we work one-on-one with clients virtually to better understand the factors that may be contributing to digestive symptoms, chronic inflammation, and overall wellness. Using a comprehensive health history, functional labs, and an evidence-informed approach, we create personalized plans centered around the gut microbiome, nutrition, sleep, stress management, movement, nervous system regulation, and targeted supplementation.


Rather than offering a one-size-fits-all solution, we help you identify patterns, address imbalances, and build sustainable habits that support long-term health. Our goal is simple: to help you create a healthier foundation so you can feel your best...not just today, but for years to come.

Meet Emily, Founder & Lead Consultant


 BOARD-CERTIFIED PHYSICIAN ASSISTANT 
FUNCTIONAL GUT HEALTH CONSULTANT & SKIN EXPERT
GUT HEALTH EDUCATION ADJUNCT FACULTY MEMBER 

My name is Emily Burger. I am a wife, mother of four, and a board-certified Physician Assistant with over 15 years of clinical experience. After spending two years working in Cardiology managing a multitude of chronic disease, followed by thirteen years in Dermatology treating inflammatory conditions like acne, rosacea, psoriasis, and chronic hives, I became increasingly interested in one question: Why do some people continue to struggle despite receiving medical care?

That curiosity led me to dive into the growing science of the gut microbiome, nutrition, and lifestyle medicine. I discovered that many factors influencing our health including our gut bacteria, the foods we eat, sleep, stress, movement, and environmental exposures often receive little to no attention in a traditional office visit because of time constraints and the structure of our healthcare system. That realization inspired me to create Holistic Healing Co., where my team and I help clients optimize these foundational aspects of health using a personalized, evidence-informed approach. Our goal is to compliement conventional medicine by helping clients better understand the factors that influence inflammation, digestion, skin health, energy, and overall wellness. As a Functional Gut Health Consultant, I guide clients through comprehensive testing, individualized nutrition, targeted supplementation when appropriate, and sustainable lifestyle changes designed to support the body's natural ability to heal and thrive. My coaches who specialize in nutrition, mindset, nervous system regulation, and movement help our clients receive ongoing education, accountability, and support throughout their journey so they never feel like they are navigating it alone!

I believe that true health begins in the gut, and I am passionate about starting where it all begins and helping you achieve true wellness that will last a lifetime. One thing that I can guarantee our private clients: you will feel seen, validated, and empowered to take control of your health. Most importantly, you will regain HOPE.


Meet Nicole, Nervous System Regulation Specialist


Hi, I’m Nicole!  I am passionate about nervous system regulation as the most effective way to heal the body once and for all. Your gut has its own nervous system, which contains over 200 million neurons. So, of course, how you feel physically, mentally, and emotionally is going to impact your gut health; and your gut health is going to impact how you feel.

That’s where learning to regulate all parts of your nervous system and working with me come into play. I will teach you how to regulate your nervous system so that you can be fully present in your body and create calm in the everyday.
Your happiness is a direct reflection of your habits, rituals, and routines. Occupational therapy is the art and science of engaging in meaningful, everyday activities. I integrate occupational therapy based strategies with somatic and spiritual practices to clear trauma, anxiety, and panic attacks. I am also trained in sensory integration, clinical hypnosis, and Rapid Resolution Therapy.

When I’m not talking nerdy science, I am living my best life with my maltipoo, Brinkley, just outside of Austin, Texas. I enjoy singing, dancing, and cooking, often all at the same time, as well as hiking and traveling the world. I work in a hospital, in the inpatient rehab unit and soon, also the NICU.

I never ask my clients to do anything I haven’t already tested for myself, and I am happy to report that I recently completed Emily’s 6 month program, with incredible results. I am grateful to be a part of this team and look forward to connecting with you. Your transformation awaits.




Meet Katie, Advanced Registered Nurse Practitioner & Nutrition Specialist

I'm Katie, an Advanced Registered Nurse Practitioner, gym owner, and mom of three who specializes in metabolic repair and hormone rebalancing. My shift into the holistic space was through my personal journey, where I used to wait for a breakdown to prioritize a breakthrough. I learned the hard way that you can't hustle your way out of burnout when your hormones and nervous system our screaming for help. I learned to build my foundation around my biology, so I NEVER have to hit empty again. The impact this has had on my health has been life-changing, and lifesaving. 

In my own coaching program, I combine my clinical expertise with a deep passion for body recomposition and help women move away from "quick fixes" and toward sustainable health. My mission is to teach others how to use food as fuel to heal their bodies, lose weight for good, and gain the vibrant energy needed to look and feel their best. I am ecstatic to lock arms with Emily and the Holistic Healing Co. team, where I lead personalized nutrition coaching calls to help you master your metabolism and find your strongest, healthiest self!


Meet Kassie, Mindset Coach, Certified Personal Trainer, & Board-Certified Physician Assistant

Hi, I’m Kassie, a passionate advocate for helping busy adults reconnect with their inner strength, build unshakable confidence, and live authentically. 

With years of experience in personal development and as a certified personal trainer, I’ve learned that true transformation doesn't just happen in the mind or the body, it happens when the two work together. 

As a full-time working single mom, I know what it’s like to feel overwhelmed, stretched thin, and quietly question if you're "doing enough" or being enough in the middle of life’s mess. But I also know this: confidence, clarity, and self-love are built through small, intentional promises you keep to yourself, both mentally and physically, and I'm here to help you do exactly that.




Meet Marketta, Breathwork Facilitator, Registered Nurse, Integrative Health Practitioner & Health Coach 

I’m Marketta Moore, a 22-year military veteran, a former nurse of 14 years, and a passionate advocate for resilience, healing, and transformation. 

I live on a small farm with my husband and four children, where we embrace the beauty of simplicity and nature. As a Breathwork facilitator, I help individuals regulate their nervous system, release emotional blocks, and rediscover balance.

 I’m committed to creating safe spaces for stress relief, clarity, and empowerment because I believe true healing starts with reconnecting to your body—you already have everything you need within.

“Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed individuals can change the world. In fact, it’s the only thing that ever has.”
