Pasadena, CA 91101
I strive to help my patients get back into balance and ultimately optimize their health. I studied Biology at the University of California, Riverside and worked as a pharmacy technician. However, I felt like something was missing within the conventional field and explored other ways of healing. That is when I fell in love with Naturopathic Medicine. I then obtained my Doctorate degree in Naturopathic Medicine at Bastyr University. I have done advanced training in Intravenous nutrition and Platelet-Rich-Plasma (PRP) micro-needling. I specialize in gut conditions, women’s health, anti-aging and integrative medicine.

I'm Kelly, a registered dietitian who specializes in chronic dieting, disordered eating, eating disorders, body image, mental health and addiction. If you've found yourself in a cycle of chronic dieting, calorie counting, over exercise or avoidance of social gatherings involving food, I can help. What we eat is so much more than what we have access to or time for- it speaks to early food culture in our home, our mental health, what we've been made to believe via social media etc. A healthy relationship with food and body is possible for everyone.

As a mother of two boys, I'm very passionate about kid's health, nutrition, parenting and healthy living. When Chinese medicine integrated with modern medicine and used appropriately, it can keep kids healthier than ever. This is so important today in US, because children face many more health issues than ever such as allergies, asthma, eczema, obesity and autism! I am also focused on treating Lyme disease. My entire family love sports, so I am passionate about knowing sports and nutrition, preventing and treating sports injuries.
