As a clinician, I combine the leading-edge sciences of Functional Medicine and Ancestral Nutrition, with the wisdom and vast experience of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). This combination of healing traditions helps me understand and respond to some of today’s most complex health challenges in a very comprehensive and effective way. Each of these healing modalities focuses on treating the ‘why’ more than the ‘what’.

I also encourage my patients to include stress reduction and/or trauma release practices like Somatic Mindfulness and Neuro Somatic Therapy to promote healing on the deepest levels possible.

As a patient, I have spent the last 25 years living with Crohn’s Disease, Ulcerative Colitis, and Insomnia. I have tried everything that is out there and can say from many years of trial and error that recovering from chronic illness is a lifestyle of its own. Diet, exercise, supplements, stress reduction, rest, sleep and human connection are vital to health and even more necessary when recovering from a chronic disease.
