If you are actively seeking to improve your health, prefer a holistic integrated approach, want to explore alternative treatment options and need a place where you can feel both comfortable and confident we would love to work with you! We treat a wide variety of conditions and find the most important factor in our success is your commitment and ours!

While naturopathic doctors certainly recognize the importance of diagnosis, we are committed to looking beyond the label of a disease, and identifying its causal mechanisms. So, when it comes to mental or physical health, my goal is to treat the patient - not the just the DSM or the ICD10 code. This means engaging in a thorough and individualized assessment of the psychological, biochemical, and environmental factors that interact to produce emotional and bodily suffering. As the set of causes for each person's symptoms is unique, so must be the treatment.

My insightful, supportive, and comprehensive approach honors your wisdom and preferences, while getting to the root of the problem(s) and stress you're experiencing.

I see patients for hormone management, chronic infection management, general medicine, chronic illness and autoimmune disease management, regenerative medicine, weight management programs, corrective exercise programs, therapeutic injection therapies, and craniosacral therapy. I also have a special interest in patients with chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia. I have a passion for providing accessible medical care for under-served populations and teaching foundational lifestyle practices that promote patient empowerment.
