I'd love to work with you if you're struggling with an eating disorder, feeling overwhelmed or out of control around food, or stuck in “analysis paralysis” about what to actually feed yourself to manage a health condition like diabetes or high cholesterol. Perhaps you’ve dieted on and off for years and you’re over it - you want to figure out how to nourish your body without counting and measuring your food and living by the number on the scale. You want anxieties about your body and food to take up less space in your brain so you can focus on what really matters to you.

I have been studying Chinese Medicine for over 20 years and had incorporated that knowledge into a thriving massage practice prior to practicing Acupuncture. The beauty of Chinese Medicine is being able to connect seemingly unrelated symptomology to a root cause and help the body rebalance itself back to health in a noninvasive manner. As a practitioner, it is the ability to "connect those dots" of the branch symptoms to their root cause that brings effective change. I love the process of problem solving , working with my patients on their path to wellness and seeing the positive changes that ensue.
