I’m a Naturopathic Doctor. My focus is working with people who are struggling with chronic symptoms/disease, chronic inflammation and autoimmunity. This could be a 22 year old with IBS and anxiety, a 42 woman in perimenopause with a mysterious skin rash, or a 60 year old with Rheumatoid Arthritis.
Chronic disease can be any number of clearly diagnosed diseases or it can be the messy mishmash of vague, nagging symptoms (ex: fatigue, digestive upset, acne, hair loss, pain, etc..) that make you feel bad, but your MD says all your lab tests are "normal" and then offers you an antidepressant.

For as long as I can remember, I’ve been navigating the complex world of health, wellness, and even illness.

Most of my clients come to me to lose weight, but often we discover other health issues that are causing the weight issues, such as, chronic inflammation, chronic stress, toxic overload, and gastrointestinal issues, such as, poor digestion and absorption of foods.

Acupuncture is your way to health and vitality. Through a compassionate approach I empower people to awaken their inner potential to heal, feel better, and participate in life again.
