Two core beliefs drive my practice:
1. Health is wealth
Health is a life requirement, not just to function, but to live to your full potential! Without health, it is impossible to pursue other goals. Without health, everything else becomes irrelevant. Health is the true measure of wealth.
2. Innate ability to heal
Each of us is a collection of intertwined systems that constantly seek balance. Once we address underlying causes of disease/dysfunction and establish a nurturing environment, our body can regulate itself to resolve and prevent illness.
As a Naturopathic Doctor, I am the natural medicine expert
Patients seek me out because I am known as a tenacious problem-solver, taking a thorough and organized approach in pursuit of long-term healing, not just symptom relief.
I support my patients 100% and “walk the talk” in my own life, living according to the same values I promote in my practice. Learn more about how I became a Naturopathic Doctor.
How I work with patients:
1. Thorough and focused naturopathic intake
We review your chief concerns, medical history, previous diagnoses and testing results
2. Determine root cause of current dysfunction/disease
This may include additional testing if relevant and includes ruling out other possible causes
3. Questions answered
We discuss any questions you have and ensure you understand and are comfortable with your treatment plan
4. Naturopathic treatment
To correct dysfunction and support the body’s innate healing ability, which may include:
- Symptom management as needed
- Establish foundations of health (nutrition/hydration, sleep, stress management, movement)
- Stimulate healing and remove barriers (supplements, herbs, homeopathy)
- Assess progress and adjust treatment plan accordingly
