You Know Your Body. I Know The Terrain.
 
​Let's work together to understand your whole health picture — your labs, your story, what’s shifted — and from there, the path forward will become clear.

Where We Focus:

Gut and Microbiome​

Bloating, reflux, or IBS that won’t resolve? We’ll find what’s actually driving them. And because so much of your health — your energy, your immunity, even your bones and skin — traces back to the gut, repairing it is often what makes healing the rest possible.

Cardiometabolic Health​

Metabolic imbalances can show up as low energy, joint pain, stubborn weight, or changes in blood sugar and cholesterol. Perhaps you’re already noticing these signs, or you have lab results and family history you’re worried about. Either way, we'll work through it all together.​​
​​​​

Brain and Nerves​

Brain fog that starts in your gut... Numbness in the toes from blood sugar imbalances... Digestion disrupted by the nerves that drive it... Often, the driver is inflammation coming from gut or metabolic imbalances. We work at the source to calm the irritated nervous system. ​
I am a certified PreCODE and ReCODE brain health practitioner. You can work with me at Apollo Health or contact me directly for more information on getting started in my practice.

Hi I'm Debora Tingley_edited.jpg

My Background

Hello,

I'm Debora.

I help people optimize health with root-cause solutions that fit naturally into life.

​

Are you looking to reclaim your health using personalized, science-based strategies? Every day, I see how nutrition and holistic care can profoundly improve and prevent chronic health conditions.
​​
​My professional journey includes a Master of Science in Human Nutrition and Functional Medicine, becoming a Certified Nutrition Specialist and LDN through the American Nutrition Association, and certifications from the Institute for Functional Medicine and Apollo Health. I also hold a PhD in Neuroscience from Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, with extensive experience in biomedical research, which allows me to integrate the latest clinical insights into my practice. Additionally, I hold a Master’s degree in Gerontology (the study of aging) and have many years of experience supporting individuals living with cognitive challenges.
 
I’m here to help you take the next step toward vibrant health. I  offer in-person appointments for people in the Berkeley, CA area and telehealth services for people in many states. Please check my FAQ to see which states I serve.

Working Together

​I provide personalized one-on-one support, working closely with you to address your health goals. We’ll start with a comprehensive health review, including any labs you have (e.g., Function Health), to uncover underlying patterns and guide our strategy. When needed, we’ll do additional functional medicine testing to peel back the layers and understand what’s truly driving your health picture. Together, we’ll create a plan to restore balance using food, supplements, and lifestyle changes that work for you. This approach will support your body’s systems naturally. And you’ll leave with a clearer understanding of your unique physiology and how to live in alignment with it.
