Ideal clients are individuals who spend a significant amount of time worrying about their body, weight, and food choices, often feeling trapped in a cycle of restriction, guilt, and frustration. They may believe they'll never achieve their health goals. These clients are ready to explore the diet cycle, challenge misinformation, and develop mindfulness around their thoughts on food, weight, and health. This process helps quiet the constant “food noise” in their minds and fosters greater self-compassion, freedom, and peace with food.

I find that acupuncture almost always helps patients with pain, both in the short and long terms. My needling style is gentle, I'm told, and my massage style is effective without leaving you feeling too bruised. I am thorough and make it a point to listen carefully your story so I can give you the best treatment possible. I use massage, infrared heat, cupping, acupuncture, herbal medicine (shipped to you directly), supplement advice, nutritional counseling, music, and the latest research to heal you. Patient education is very important to me, and you can call or email me with questions!

I have always believed that correcting the source of a problem is better than treating the effects. This mentality began early, after a recurring knee injury impacted my martial arts practice. It would get better, but never really went away. I managed and tolerated the pain for a long time. Nearly 10 years later, I finally received care, consisting of a combination of soft tissue care, adjustments, and movement therapy, and it resolved.

As a Naturopathic Doctor, I focus on the person in front of me, listen to their health needs, and work with them by addressing their entire person. This simply means that I look at every factor that has affected this person throughout their entire life including childhood home life, infections and treatments, surgeries, other trauma, diet, social interactions, and lifestyle. By using these influences together with labwork I work with my clients to create a plan that works for them to support their current complaint by addressing the origin of their concerns. I have worked with all ages and backgrounds to support their health needs.

Part of the joy I receive from being a physician is meeting people where they are in their health-care journey. Working with you as an individual with a unique history, getting to know your story and what your goals are for yourself is incredibly important. This is treating the whole person. You are not your symptoms or your diagnosis. I view our work together as a partnership: whether you need a cheerleader, someone to hold you accountable or hold space for you to process, I trust the inherent wisdom of your body and your lived experience.
