About Us
Our Philosophy: Next-Gen Functional Medicine
We’ve seen both sides of the system:
the traditional model that manages symptoms, and the functional model that seeks deeper answers.
Here, functional medicine and primary care aren’t opposing philosophies — they coexist.
Our Name: Functional Nurse Practitioner
FunctNP functional medicine reflects who we are: a nurse practitioner–led practice redefining what it means to deliver functional, whole-woman care.
At FunctNP, we’re building a model for the next era of healthcare.
One where prevention, continuity, and connection live inside the system, not outside of it.
Because no one should have to choose between being cared for and being covered.

Sadie Carlsen, NP
Founder & Functional Nurse Practitioner
I’ve called Idaho home for over 15 years, and during that time I’ve worked across multiple areas of healthcare from emergency medicine to functional medicine gaining a deep respect for both conventional and integrative approaches.
While completing my graduate studies, my capstone focused on functional preventive health and how it can improve the modern healthcare system.
That research became the foundation for what is now FunctNP.
I built FunctNP Functional Medicine to prove that healthcare could feel different: more connected, more intentional, and more preventive.
I’m currently completing my Women’s Integrative Functional Medicine Certification, further expanding the care I offer through a whole-woman lens.
My approach begins with the nervous system, builds energy and resilience, and helps you understand your body’s patterns so you can make lasting change.
When I’m not in the clinic, you’ll find me writing, refining protocols, or spending time with my husband and 3 daughters.
