She believes, based on her own health challenges as well as those of her patients, that when the student is ready, the teacher always appears.
She has a passion for teaching her patients about the innate healing abilities of the body/mind/spirit and for finding the most gentle and effective treatments that address the root cause. She is a strong advocate of nutritional therapies and utilizes functional testing (including comprehensive hormonal, genetic, gut microbiome, nutritional and immune testing ) when needed to uncover specific imbalances in biochemical pathways that are critical to optimal health and wellness. This approach is especially well-suited for patients who are ready and willing to take responsibility for their own health and lifestyle choices. She has long questioned the notion that we have to deteriorate as we age and offers specific lifestyle strategies to help her patients thrive at every stage of their lives.
When she is not sharing her passion for healing with her patients, you will find her spending time with her daughters, her family, and friends, dreaming up her next exotic off-the-beaten-track adventure, enjoying Nature, climbing mountains, backpacking, hanging out in her garden with her naughty chickens, practicing yoga, dancing, or simply exploring fully what it means to be an unbounded human spirit residing in a human body.
