As a board cerfified, licensed primary care naturopathic physician, Chinese medicine practitioner and acupuncturist. I am committed to helping my patients by finding root causes and overcoming obstacles to achieve the essential equilibrium,with integrative medicine, honoring the healing power of Mother Nature and love. My specialized practice focuses on healing from chronic diseases, including all kinds of injury and pain, chronic fatigue, insomnia, cardiovascular diseases, stroke, liver & kidney diseases, auto-immune diseases, mental health, gastrointestinal problems, endocrine disorders, addiction, weight problems, women's health,and cancer.etc.

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.

A patient who would be served by me is both curious and motivated about his/her body and return to best health. I enjoy sharing what I know and creating an atmosphere of respect with some levity. You do not need to fit into the medical description of a condition for me to be able to offer care and I spend a lot of time listening to your story to better understand you and your conditions. My tool bag is huge and full of possible options; we can find the treatment plan best suited for you as we work together.

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.
