My Philosophy

I am a Naturopathic Doctor…

A practitioner who seeks to explore and understand all of your symptoms—inside and out.
Who views you as a whole, interconnected person, not just a list of symptoms or a diagnosis.
Who meets you where you're at, listens closely, and respects your insight and capacity—without judgment.
Who takes the time to complete a thorough health history and investigate the root cause of dysfunction.
Who strives to bridge the gap between conventional and natural therapies.
Who is willing to return to the drawing board every time a roadblock arises.
Who is here to inform, inspire, and support you throughout your journey.
Who is dedicated to helping you build a strong, resilient foundation of health—one that honours your unique identity and innate wisdom.

My Story

How I made my passion a reality:

I embraced a holistic approach after struggling deeply with my own health. I genuinely understand the frustration and overwhelm that may be driving you to seek out alternative forms of care.

After navigating a decade long struggle with an autoimmune disease—alongside chronic pain, fatigue, anxiety, gut dysfunction, painful periods, acne, weight gain, and more—naturopathic medicine became my path to healing.

Through that journey, I often felt discouraged when my voice was overlooked. I knew there was more to my diagnosis, and the recommendations I received didn’t align with my belief in the body’s ability to heal—nor did they bring meaningful relief from the symptoms that disrupted my life.

I am now committed to ensuring others access to the same kind of care, insight, and resources that helped me—so they can find lasting relief and return to a life that feels whole and fulfilling. You deserve to feel heard, informed, and empowered in your healthcare.

Outside of the clinic, you’ll find me taking my dog, Moose, on an adventure, practicing yoga, creating a new plant-based recipe, gardening, or spending time with family and friends.

My Approach

Naturopathic Doctors (NDs) vary greatly in the conditions they address, diagnostic methods they use, and in their approach to treatment. Given the investment of both time and resources, you owe it to yourself to find a practitioner who aligns with your personal values and health goals.

I may have expertise in naturopathic medicine, but you are the expert on your body and your life. My role is to empower you with knowledge, tools, and perspective so you can navigate your health more confidently. The body will heal when supported properly and it’s my job to help facilitate that process.

While I’m here to guide and support you, the healing doesn’t come from me—it begins with you. I’ll walk beside you and hold space for your journey—but ultimately, the work and the healing come from you.

I invite you to schedule a complimentary ‘Meet and Greet’ visit to see if we resonate with one another. I would be honored to collaborate with you on your health goals!
