Experiencing frustration with the gap in nutritional education, my journey into naturopathic medicine began

My story

After finding my true calling to be naturopathic medicine, I embarked on the 5-year journey of naturopathic medical school.

I completed a fibromyalgia focus shift in my final clinical year, treating patients with complex chronic illness and pain.

Working with these patients pushed me to find novel treatment methods for unusual or restricted circumstances.

I did various preceptorships, one of which was a family therapy eating disorders group. This emphasized to me the value of collaboration between various practitioners in a patients’ health journey.

My approach

My belief

My goal

is individualized collaborative care. I work together with my patients to create a plan that works for them, so patients play an active role in their health.

I also work together with other health care providers, to ensure my patients benefit from a wide range of expertise.

Because each patient is unique, no two plans are the same. I always take the time to really get to know each individual. The suggestions for each patient are truly suited for each persons unique makeup and circumstance.

Is that observation, knowledge and active listening are at the heart of good patient care. Assessment is the most important part of generating a treatment plan. That is why I pay attention to all the details of your life, and take my time to discover what is really going on under the surface.

I combine care, creativity and clinical expertise to help patients find optimal health.

Is patient empowerment through education, guidance and transformation.

By educating patients on their bodies and health, they are better equipped to take control of their health and their lives. Once you begin to feel the impact of optimal health, you are able to change your life and the lives of those around you in such a positive way.

Everyone deserves to know what 100% feels like.
