Naturopathic medicine is an integrative approach to health and healing that recognizes the inherent healing capacity of the individual person. Natural medicine principles respect the intelligence of nature's healing process.
Methods of treatment are chosen to work with the patient's own vital force and in my practice I include such therapies as acupuncture, herbal medicine, nutrition, hydrotherapy, spagyrics, fasting and detoxification.
I enjoy helping people with a variety of conditions and I have a special interest in addictions, migraines, digestive disorders, chronic pain, anxiety, and depression.
I received my Bachelor of Science in Natural Health Sciences and Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine from Bastyr University in Kenmore, WA and Master of Science in Acupuncture from Tri State College of Acupuncture in New York, NY.
I belong to the American Association of Naturopathic Physicians and Washington Association of Oriental Medicine.
