I received my Doctorate in Naturopathic Medicine from Southwest College of Naturopathic Medicine in 2014 and completed a three year independent residency at Arizona Digestive Health where I practiced as a licensed naturopathic physician alongside MD gastroenterologists. I have managed thousands of patients suffering with IBS, IBD, GERD, Dyspepsia, Gas/Bloating, Celiac, Hepatitis, Fatty Liver and More! As of now, Missouri is not a licensed state for naturopathic doctors and thus I do not hold a Missouri license. I strongly recommend all potential clients have a primary care physician such as a MD or DO.

I view health and healing as a partnership. My specialties are Women's Health, Sports Medicine (weekend warriors to the professional athlete), Chronic disease management(including cancer support) and Pediatrics; however, I do see a wide range of patients. I do use a combination of acupuncture, customized herb therapies where applicable, as well as food therapy and lifestyle counseling. It is very important to me that my patients feel empowered to regain control of their health.

As a registered dietitian, I specialize in intuitive eating by teaching individuals to give up the diet mentality and start focusing on incorporating all foods into their diet. I also use this same philosophy among the athletes I work with and those struggling with eating disorders and disordered eating. I teach my clients to empower themselves to start saying yes to foods instead of no. Changing the way we eat is a lifestyle change but it doesn’t have to be radical either. Nutrition does not have to be difficult, but somehow we have made eating food very confusing.

As a wellness coach, I help clients navigating a path to the health changes they desire most. Some specific challenges I have helped clients overcome include weight loss, improved nutritional habits, improved fitness, and being able to reduce or eliminate need for medications. Research has shown that lasting change is a process which takes time, curiosity, patience, perseverance and a willingness to grow. Clients often come to me after spending months or even years "stuck in the muck", frustrated at being unable to outgrow old habits which are having a negative impact on their health and well-being.
