Summary/services offered:

I’m a licensed naturopathic physician, acupuncturist, wellness educator and former pharmacist. I offer all-natural solutions to restore optimal health and help individuals reclaim a life of energy, balance and joy.

What drew you to this profession?

I’ve been passionate about helping people and our planet from an early age. At 14 years old, my journey into medicine began while working in a small-town pharmacy where I was inspired by the pharmacist’s unique role in patient health care. I considered the pharmacy a “last stop” in our healthcare system, where patients were able to ask detailed medication questions and obtain more tools to be proactive about their health and decided to become a pharmacist.

While working as a pharmacist, I observed the limitations of conventional medicine in its ability to offer long-term, healing solutions. Oftentimes, patients could only take a medication for so long before another health condition, complication or side effect developed. While witnessing this, and exploring my own personal growth and healing, I fully recognized that pharmaceuticals were not the way I wanted to help people.

I knew there had to be a better way for me to provide “health” care to my community, and realized that many people weren’t satisfied with the idea of relying on pharmaceuticals for the rest of their lives. I knew I wanted to help others to heal naturally and became drawn to naturopathic medicine.

How does your work differ from others in your profession?

Although I’m officially now a naturopathic physician, I’m commonly called a “health detective” as my approach involves listening attentively to all the “clues” and utilizing detailed testing to “investigate” and address the root cause of health concerns. I’m often presented with complicated and chronic unsolved health mysteries from individuals who have not found relief elsewhere. These individuals come to my practice after seeing multiple practitioners or specialists, yet still feel there are aspects of their health going unaddressed. They know there must be overlooked connections between a variety of their ailments.

What should someone expect from working with you?

My commitment is to be as thorough as possible, dedicating 60 to 90 minutes per appointment, which allows for people to be fully understood and ask plenty of questions—without feeling rushed. See ad, page 19.
