Nutrition Naturopaths in Placer County, CA
I was born and raised in Auburn, California and am a 1996 graduate of Bastyr University, the leading naturopathic medical school in North America. Growing up with my dad as a local doctor inspired me to pursue medicine myself. Personal illness with questions left unanswered by western medicine led me in the direction of naturopathic medicine. I am passionate about helping people find their optimal health. I fill up my free time with my husband and 2 beautiful daughters. Together we enjoy rock-climbing, horse back riding, surfing, gardening and just being together.

Nutrition Naturopaths
Do naturopaths offer nutrition counseling?
Many naturopaths do offer nutrition counseling. In fact, those credentialed as naturopathic doctors (NDs) receive specialized training in nutrition as part of their 4-year training curriculum in naturopathic medicine. Traditional naturopaths with less formal training may vary substantially in their knowledge of nutrition. However, in general, naturopathy encourages the use of lifestyle interventions, such as diet, as an alternative to medication intervention, thus rendering many naturopaths particularly interested in the topic of nutrition. Some naturopaths may adhere to a specific nutritional philosophy, such as only consuming unprocessed foods, while others may see food as an adjunct to other lifestyle interventions, such as physical exercise and herbal supplementation. When searching for a naturopath, therefore, clients should consider their own therapeutic goals and comfort level with various nutrition interventions, as well as the credentials of the specific naturopathic practitioner.
