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.

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.
