I have a passion for science and a respect for healing traditions.

  • As a Naturopathic Doctor I’ve completed four years of medical sciences, pharmacology and natural therapies at the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine (CCNM) after four years in the Arts and Science program at McMaster University.

  • I accomplished a residency at CCNM then supervised 4th year students at the RSNC.

  • I enjoy teaching students how diagnose complicated cases, how to find the best treatments and evaluate evidence.

  • After completing 10 years of post-secondary education, teaching Naturopathic students and conducting original research, you can rest assured that I am qualified to be your health strategist.

I help people optimize their mental health and enjoy pain-free movement.

I am passionate and experienced in the field of mental health, treating depression, anxiety, OCD, bipolar, burnout and ADHD. I am especially interested in easing the physical symptoms that come with stress and other mental health challenges.

I’ve learned from Dr. Prousky ND and have published research on the topic.

I am trained as a general practitioner and have helped women and men balance hormones, treat hair loss, acne, eczema, mold-intoxication, and more.

On the intake I will spend over an hour listening to your health concerns and challenges. Then I research your case and develop a unique strategy to help you perform at your best. You will receive detailed information about my assessment of your condition, optional tests and treatments. Then we will discuss which tests and treatments fit your priorities, energy and budget. Once your initial strategy is in place we will meet on a regular basis to fine-tune the strategy and track your improvement.

As your Naturopathic Doctor, I will be your partner and guide in meeting your health goals. I believe that your body has wisdom and that you are infinitely capable (even if it doesn’t feel that way right now).
