Autism Naturopaths near Snohomish, WA

My passion is pregnancy, birth, pediatrics, and women's health. Helping families conceive who are having challenges is extremely rewarding. I also help guide those families planning for a baby who want to set a strong foundation for the health of their baby. The care I provide begins at preconception and goes through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum, and continues through all phases of life. I am a primary care provider in Washington state and a licensed midwife. I offer pediatric well-child visits, including vaccine counseling/administration and acute care and well-woman care, including annual gynecological and breast exams.

I am a Functional Medicine practitioner and I focus on getting to the underlying causes of illness for both adults and children. Causes are primarily nutritional deficiencies, genetic mutations like MTHFR, toxins in the body, and chronic infections and food allergies. I use lab testing to pinpoint specific causes and then apply the most effective natural treatments. I consistently see dramatic results with fatigue, candida yeast, fibromyalgia, migraines, menstrual problems, menopause, adrenal exhaustion, toxicity, anxiety, depression, and much more. It takes just days to a few weeks to begin to seeing results and feeling better.

I look beyond the labels often associated with long term illness to identify the physiological factors that allowed illness to manifest. I work cooperatively with my patients and colleagues to create custom treatment plans that largely focus on specialized treatment modalities including neural therapy techniques, intravenous therapies, botanical medicine and functional nutrition. I emphasize education to empower my patients to make informed decisions about their health.

If I had to pick only one overarching goal to summarize my approach to your health care it would be the goal to get you feeling better on your terms. This means that I tailor my medical decisions, practices, and therapies to the individual patient, and that I use diagnostic tests to select therapies based on your specific genes, biochemistry, and microbial community (commonly referred to as the microbiome). In doctor-speak, this approach is often shorthanded to personalized medicine.

I have enjoyed over 20 years of private practice in the Everett area. Trained at Bastyr University in the 1980's and focused on the traditional aspects of the Naturopathic profession. I still prefer to use herbs and nutrients in the original tincture and herba forms and also use all of the scientific encapsulations by the most respected companies. Although I focus on Thyroid disorders increasing in the region, I do see all ages and genders in a general family practice setting. Over the years I have developed good workiing relations with this areas specialists so no aspect of your health will be ignored.

I guide those seeking optimal health and holistic approaches to health concerns through patient centered care, treating the whole person and not just a set a symptoms. With empathy, uncondintional positive regard, innovative personalized treatment plans and cutting edge Naturopathic methods, I partner with you to look and feel your best.
