I work with busy women who feel overwhelmed, exhausted, inflamed, uncomfortable in their bodies, or frustrated that nothing they try seems to last. Many are navigating pregnancy, postpartum, motherhood, hormones, stress, or years of confusing nutrition advice while constantly putting themselves last. They often come to me feeling stuck, defeated, and disconnected from their bodies — wanting support that finally feels realistic, personalized, sustainable, and free from guilt or extreme rules.

At this point in my practice, most of my focus is spent on working with patients with chronic illnesses, like cancer. I also work with patients with digestive issues, men's health issues and other health conditions. I utilize an integrated approach, including behavior modification, counseling, botanical medicine, clinical nutrition, vitamin, mineral and enzyme optimization and intravenous (I.V.) therapy. Although I see many patients for fine tuning and health optimization, I also accept the challenge of working with people with very difficult medical issues, especially folks with issues that conventional medicine has very little to offer.

I have a very broad, general practice for people of all ages and problems. I use acupuncture and related techniques to balance a person so that they will be better able to fix themselves. I like to say treatment is like a "tune-up and oil change" for your self-repair mechanism. The goal is to get you to do what you could be doing for yourself, but aren't. As a result many problems can quickly resolve.
