Client-centered support and solutions for…
-
Pain
Nothing is quite so dispiriting as pain. Simply put, when we are in pain we are not ourselves. Chinese medicine can be immensely helpful when recovering from acute pain due to a musculoskeletal injury as well as chronic pain syndromes like fibromyalgia, menstrual cramps, migraines, TMJ and chronic tension in the neck, back and shoulders.
-
Chronic Illness
For people dealing with hormonal imbalances, dermatological issues, digestive complaints, chronic fatigue and/or frequent infections, conventional treatment options are limited. The tools of Chinese medicine are uniquely suited to diagnose and safely address these difficult-to-treat cases.
-
Mental Health
When we experience anxiety, grief, depression, insomnia or chronic stress, we lose our ability to connect, to find joy, even to function. These emotional experiences often manifest physically as chest tightness, poor memory, fatigue or muscle tension. Chinese medicine offers practical, lasting solutions for the physical symptoms of these common mental health complaints.

Her role as a clinician is to listen, support, empower, and work in partnership with clients to facilitate meaningful change on their terms. Her practice is trauma-informed and solution-focused.
