My Philosophy on Health and Healing
If you are like many people, you are probably tired of feeling tired, anxious, depressed and in chronic pain. You can’t recall when you last felt like yourself or why it is that you can’t seem to lose weight or stop your hormones (PMS, hot flashes, etc.) from negatively impacting your quality of life. You are tired of being told by your doctor that “everything is normal” despite your inner knowing that something is undoubtedly “off”. You have tried a variety of medications and supplements recommended by your health providers and yet nothing seems to help get you closer to a healthier version of YOU. Perhaps you have lost hope that things will ever get better and have stopped believing that you will someday feel healthy and vital, living a life that brings you joy, happiness and peace.
I get it. I have been in your shoes.
I know firsthand what it is like to struggle with chronic health ailments like fatigue, anxiety, depression and weight, and to have your hormones “out of whack”. I know how it feels to be “stuck” with a sense of hopelessness because you have already done everything you can to try to turn your health around. I have had to chart my own difficult health journey and have learned an incredible amount of information and effective tools that helped me break free from cycles of pain, anxiety, depression, fatigue, weight gain and insomnia. Because of the knowledge and experience I have gained from having overcome these challenging experiences myself, I am able to serve as a better physician and healer for my patients and have helped hundreds of men and women identify their own unique roadmap to reclaiming the health and healing they desire and deserve.
The truth is most people are unaware of how incredible they could feel. They are unaware of the options available and how easily they can begin filling like themselves again (and often better!). They may be unaware how changing the way you eat, breathe, think, and move your body can radically change their health, their life, their future. Conventional medicine guides treatments based on symptoms, algorithms and diagnoses NOT the individual. Many people are suffering and are looking for something more.
The good news is that there is hope.
Helping others identify the underlying root cause for their chronic health complaint or diagnosis (whether it is anxiety and depression, insomnia, weight gain, digestive disorders or an autoimmune disease such as Hashimoto’s thyroiditis) is the first step to improving their health for the long term. This is achieved through proper evaluation using laboratory testing as well as a thorough assessment of one’s foundational health which is influenced by their nutrition, sleep habits, digestive health, adaptive response to stress, and other lifestyle factors.
I LOVE MAKING PEOPLE FEEL VIBRANTLY ALIVE AND HEALTHY AGAIN.
Correcting nutritional deficiencies, treating chronic infections, decreasing inflammation, removing environmental toxins, and restoring hormonal balance is often just a piece of the puzzle. To experience long term vibrant health, we must give the mind, body, and spirit what it needs to thrive, not just survive.
As a Naturopathic Doctor I am trained as a primary care doctor, yet understand and view health and the human body from a perspective different than conventionally trained physicians and take a different approach to care. From my 10+ years of private practice, I have learned to see imbalances in the physical body as a reflection of a greater imbalance within the space where mind, body, and spirit meet. I incorporate my training in naturopathic medicine, energy medicine, and transformational coaching to help give others the most effective and comprehensive approach to realigning and restoring the health of their mind, body, spirit, and soul. My work with patients addresses the healing that is needed on all levels which allows them the opportunity to heal at all levels. And with this approach, I have witnessed people more quickly improve their health and happiness and become unstoppable in claiming the life and health they desire and deserve.
