Best part of my work with my patients: I enjoy listening to people’s unique stories, working together to identify the factors that are contributing to disease/imbalance in their lives, and supporting them through development of holistic, personalized care plans.
Why I became a provider: I find joy in connecting with people and sharing my passion for a whole-person approach to health and well-being.
Practice philosophy: I believe in the importance of building a therapeutic partnership to help individuals identify root causes of disease/imbalance in their life while supporting patients in their journey toward greater health and well-being. I believe health and well-being can be enhanced by utilizing food as medicine, learning stress management, and addressing the environmental, spiritual and relational factors contributing to our health.
