Personalized nutritional therapy to support sustainable wellness.
Meet Maureen
Maureen McCooey is the founder of Planted Kitchens and a wellness practitioner whose work centers on nutritional therapy and whole-person health. With experience as a private chef and a professional background in the hospitality industry, she spent many years operating cafés, restaurants, and catering businesses, developing a deep appreciation for food as a powerful foundation for overall well-being.
As her interest in health and nutrition deepened, Maureen shifted her focus toward understanding how nutrition, lifestyle, and daily habits influence long-term wellness. Today, she works with clients using nutritional therapy principles to help them better understand their bodies, build sustainable habits, and create a balanced approach to lasting health.
A Philosophy of Living
What Is Wellness?
Wellness is not one single thing. It means something different for each person and evolves throughout the various stages of our lives. It is layered, personal, and ever-changing—but one thing remains constant: wellness is essential to living a balanced, fulfilling life.
My idea of wellness includes nourishing the body with supportive foods, practicing mindfulness and self-reflection, maintaining strength and vitality, continuing to learn and grow, and cultivating meaningful relationships that bring connection and purpose. Wellness is not about perfection; it is about awareness, intention, and sustainable habits that support long-term health.
Of course, achieving wellness is rarely simple. Life is busy, challenges arise, and knowing where to begin can feel overwhelming. My work in Nutritional Therapy is to provide guidance, education, and personalized support so you can better understand your body, build lasting habits, and move toward a version of wellness that truly works for you.
