I’m Dr. Jen Stotlar, ND, CNS, LDN, a naturopathic doctor, holistic nutritionist and owner of Nourisherpa natural health clinic. My passion is to help people uncover and correct the root causes of imbalance. My approach blends the science of metabolism with the art of individualized care, using food, lifestyle, and natural therapies to help the body restore balance and resilience.

I have a strong nutrition background as a Certified Nutrition Specialist and Licensed Dietitian Nutritionist. I also have additional nutrition certifications from Metabolic Balance, Nutritional Therapy Association (NTP), and certified gluten-free practitioner. I combine functional lab interpretation with a practical, real-food approach to healing. I work with clients of all ages navigating gut issues, metabolic and hormone challenges, chronic inflammation, fatigue, or simply wanting to feel like themselves again.

My philosophy follows the naturopathic therapeutic order: start with the foundations of nutrition, movement, mindset, and rest. Then build upward from there. I believe healing happens when we create the right conditions for the body’s innate intelligence to do what it’s designed to do.

When I’m not in the clinic, you’ll usually find me recharging at our cabin in southern Illinois, reading something utterly entertaining, or walking our pit bull, Dodger. My work is rooted in science, guided by nature, and inspired by seeing people reclaim their vitality.

The clinic, Nourisherpa, is located in Buffalo Grove, Illinois, and offers an integrative approach to natural health. We combine naturopathic medicine, holistic nutrition, chiropractic care and restorative therapies to help clients restore balance, support metabolism, and feel more at home in their bodies.

Together with Dr. Eric Mai, DC, LMT, we offer a range of services including Metabolic Balance programs, functional lab testing, chiropractic care, therapeutic massage, red light therapy, PEMF, and Neurostructural Integration Technique (NST). Each plan is customized to the person in front of us to address not just physical symptoms but also lifestyle, emotional wellbeing, and environment.

People come to Nourisherpa for help with chronic conditions, digestive concerns, metabolic and hormone balance, and stress recovery. Our goal is to guide each client toward steady, sustainable change, using food as medicine and simple daily practices that build energy, clarity, and resilience.

At its heart, Nourisherpa means “guide to health.” That’s what we strive to be—trusted guides walking alongside each person on their path toward lasting wellness.
