Health Professionals in Charlotte, NC

Welcome! I have a lifelong passion for health. I was raised using natural therapies for common illnesses and saw the power of integrative cancer treatment during my aunt’s ovarian cancer journey. I also used natural solutions for my own hormonal imbalances, fatigue, and digestive issues during my young adult life. As a naturopathic doctor, I treat the whole person with individualized comprehensive naturopathic care focused on both underlying causes and end results. I provide care for natural cancer support, hormonal, digestive, heart health, metabolic, autoimmune, and skin disorders.

I enjoy treating people who want to take an active role in their health. I work with the body's innate ability to heal by promoting balance and removing health obstacles. I work hard to understand you as an idividual, and not as a list of symptoms. I do my best to educate and communicate about your treatment, so that you feel comfortable every step of the way. I encourage you to schedule a free consultation to get to know each other and get all of your questions answered before we begin our partnership in your health care.

I help my patients find the root cause of their disease or symptoms, and provide an individualized approach to treatment based on their unique needs. I specifically work with a lot of hormonal issues including menstrual pain or irregularities, PCOS, and fertility issues as well as digestive issues including bloating, constipation, diarrhea, Irritable Bowel, Crohn's Disease, Ulcerative Colitis, food sensitivities, and more. With the right tools, testing, and proper evaluation, it is possible to get the answers that we need so you can feel good, have more energy, and live a pain-free life.

I love helping individuals of all ages to heal relationships with food, eating, and body image.

Smart healthcare and results are my passion! Using a body constitution approach, I tailor treatments for nerve and joint pain, gastrointestinal and auto-immune disorders. Knowing your particular body constitution is vital since your treatment could be completely different from someone else even if you have the exact same symptoms and diagnosis.

As part of my care, every patient receives comprehensive dietary and lifestyle activities counseling.
