About the Guest:

I am a “Why” person. I always want to know why something is happening. As I was beginning my health journey, I searched for a practitioner who would spend the time, ask the hard questions to get to the root of my complaints and try to explain why I was not feeling as well as I could. I came up short time and time again. I decided that I wanted to be the kind of doctor that I was searching for. I turned to naturopathic medicine because of one of the basic tenets of the practice: doctor as teacher and first do no harm.

I attended National University of Naturopathic Medicine. This education taught me to look at medicine differently, to take the time to ask the hard questions and see the relationship between lifestyle, diet and illness. I learned to treat the whole person rather than the symptoms. Since graduation I have been teaching college level anatomy, physiology, pathophysiology and pharmacology in addition to practice. The teaching has allowed me to deepen my knowledge of the body and reinforced my conviction that the choices we make daily influence our health.

For the past few years I have been doing advanced training in functional medicine through the Institute for Functional Medicine. This has deepened my appreciation for the fact that every one of us has a story, and our unique stories provide insight into the root of our health challenges. It is at the root, the true healing can occur. 

As a Naturopathic Doctor with a clinical focus in environmental medicine, skin health, aesthetic medicine, hormonal imbalances and digestive concerns, my aim is to integrate the latest innovations and research with evidence-based natural therapies.
