Health Professionals in Santa Cruz County, CA
My ideal clients are people ready to take an active role in their health — often dealing with chronic or nerve-related pain, headaches, an injury that hasn't fully healed, or the physical toll of stress and poor sleep. Many have tried other approaches and want care that treats the whole picture, not just symptoms. I help them move forward with individualized, evidence-based acupuncture, electroacupuncture, dry needling, and herbal medicine, clear and measurable goals, and honest check-ins so they always know whether treatment is working. I also welcome clients seeking facial acupuncture and microneedling for skin health.

Hi, I'm Brenna! I work with adolescents, teens and adults who are struggling with disordered eating, recovery from chronic dieting, binge-restrict cycles, body image concerns and wanting to be able to pursue health without obsession. It's common to be interested in or passionate about food, health, wellness exercise - but when those interests become inflexible, or don't allow for you to spend time and feel present doing other things that are important to you, it can be a sign to reach out.

At this point in my practice, most of my focus is spent on working with patients with chronic illnesses, like cancer.
