While each team member brings a unique background and area of expertise, we share a common goal: Helping families move from confusion and guessing to greater understanding, clarity, and hope.
Dr. Piper Gibson, PhD
Founder & Clinical Director
Before I was helping families professionally, I was a mother searching for answers for my own child.
What began as a tic disorder diagnosis eventually became a much bigger journey involving multiple symptoms, specialists, medications, and years of unanswered questions. Like many parents who find us, I spent countless hours researching, learning, and trying to understand why so many symptoms seemed connected while struggling to find anyone who could help us make sense of the bigger picture.
That experience changed the direction of my life. Today, through Regenerating Health, I help families move from confusion and guessing to a clearer understanding of the patterns that may be contributing to their child’s symptoms. My work focuses on helping families understand how factors such as nervous system regulation, gut health, immune function, inflammation, environmental stressors, genetics, nutrition, and other underlying contributors may interact together in ways that are often overlooked.
One of the greatest privileges of my work is helping families feel seen, understood, and supported as they navigate complex health challenges. I believe that when symptoms do not fully make sense, parents deserve more than reassurance- they deserve understanding.
Danielle Goetzinger
Parent Advocate | Certified Health Coach | Educator
Like many of the families we serve, my journey into this work began as a parent searching for answers.
After spending years navigating complex symptoms, specialists, therapies, medications, and conflicting recommendations within my own family, I developed a deep appreciation for how overwhelming and isolating these journeys can feel. I understand what it is like to spend countless hours researching, asking questions, and trying to make sense of symptoms that do not seem to fit neatly into a single explanation.
Today, I work alongside Dr. Piper Gibson helping families navigate that same uncertainty. I have the privilege of speaking with parents every day who are trying to better understand tics, anxiety, OCD tendencies, sensory sensitivities, emotional dysregulation, gut issues, PANS/PANDAS concerns, and other complex symptom patterns affecting their children. My role is to listen, help families feel understood, answer questions, and guide them as they explore whether a root-cause functional medicine approach may be appropriate for their child.
One of the greatest privileges of my work is helping parents move from confusion and guessing toward greater clarity, confidence, and understanding. I believe that every family deserves to feel heard, supported, and empowered as they navigate decisions about their child’s health and future.

Holly Spears
Functional Diagnostic Nutrition® Practitioner
My faith, my family, and a deep desire to help others better understand their health have shaped the work I do today.
After raising four children and spending more than a decade living in different countries around the world, I developed a unique appreciation for the many factors that can influence health and wellness. Those experiences, combined with my work supporting families facing chronic symptoms and complex health challenges, led me to Functional Diagnostic Nutrition and a passion for helping people uncover the deeper patterns that may be affecting their well-being.
Today, I work closely with families navigating concerns involving digestion, immune health, stress resilience, sleep, nutrition, nervous system regulation, and overall wellness. At Regenerating Health, I partner with Dr. Piper Gibson and our team to help families better understand their child’s unique symptom patterns and support them throughout the implementation process.
One of the most rewarding parts of my work is helping families move from feeling overwhelmed and uncertain to feeling informed, empowered, and hopeful about the path forward. I believe every child has a unique story, and every family deserves the opportunity to better understand the bigger picture behind their child’s symptoms.

Kirk Sparks
Health Coach | Parent Advocate | Community Success Manager
Before joining the Regenerating Health team, I was a parent searching for answers for my own children.
Our family navigated challenges involving PANDAS, tics, autism, environmental mold exposure, and years of unanswered questions. Like many of the families we serve, we spent a long time trying to understand what was happening and what steps would truly make a difference.
Working with Dr. Piper Gibson became a turning point for our family and ultimately inspired my passion for helping other parents navigate similar journeys.
Today, I support families as a Health Coach and Community Success Manager, helping parents implement recommendations, access resources, and feel supported throughout the process. As a husband, father, educator, and coach, I understand that helping a child extends far beyond a protocol and often involves navigating the realities of everyday family life.
For more than 25 years, I have worked in youth wellness, physical education, coaching, and health-focused environments. One of the greatest privileges of my work is helping families feel understood, supported, and confident as they move toward greater clarity and hope for their child’s future.

Bailey Williams
Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner
My passion for helping others began in education. As a former high school science teacher, I spent years helping students understand complex concepts and develop confidence in their ability to learn and grow. That love of science, problem-solving, and teaching continues to shape the work I do today.
My interest in functional health became personal after struggling with digestive issues, anxiety, and depression. Through functional lab testing and a deeper understanding of how the body’s systems interact, I gained valuable insights into my own health journey and discovered a new passion for helping others do the same.
Today, as a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner, I help families better understand the patterns that may be affecting their health and well-being. I enjoy making complex information easier to understand so families can feel informed, confident, and supported as they navigate their path forward.
One of the most rewarding parts of my work is helping people move from confusion and uncertainty toward greater understanding and clarity about their health.

How We Support Every Family’s Unique Journey
Depending on your child’s needs and where you are in the process, you’ll interact with different members of our team at different times. From your initial consultation to clinical support, nutrition reviews, coaching, implementation, resources, and ongoing guidance, our goal is to ensure your family feels supported every step of the way.
We hope meeting our team has given you a better understanding of who we are, why we do this work, and the heart behind our approach. If you’re wondering whether there may be deeper patterns contributing to your child’s symptoms, we invite you to schedule a complimentary case review.
Ready to Take the Next Step?
Ready to Take
the Next Step?
During the consultation, we’ll:
- review your child’s symptom history
- discuss overlapping patterns and symptom connections
- answer your questions
- help determine whether a root-cause functional medicine approach may be appropriate for your family
Many parents tell us they leave the conversation feeling more understood, more informed, and more confident about the path forward.
