I (she/her) worked for several years in the field of community mental health before relocating to the Pacfic NW for medical school. I am a graduate of Bastyr University and completed a 2-year post-graduate training program in integrative women’s health. I am credentialed by NAMS as a certified menopause practitioner, ABORM as a fellow of oriental reproductive medicine, and PSI in perinatal mood & anxiety disorders as a prescriber: the only physician to have this combination of education & training. In fact, I am the only naturopathic physician in the state of AZ to be certified as a women’s health specialist. I have been in clinical practice since 2003 with a special focus on women’s health; emphasizing nutrition and exercise in health maintenance and disease prevention and treatment. I am committed to the mental and physical health of women of all ages and I believe that our goal for health & wellness is a matter of progress, not perfection. Education and empowerment can help us take a proactive, preventive approach to the treatment of any condition.

Hello! I'm a mother of two wonderful teens, 17 and 13. I'm in my final year of persuing my bachelors in nursing. I have experience as a birth doula before I began school and loved doing that work. I'm not currently in a position to be on call in the same way as I prefer to be for those clients so I'm transitioning into postpartum and night nurse care. I am certified in BLS for healthcare providers, fully vaccinated, and I have a level 1 Arizona fingerprint clearance card. I'm highly knowledgeable in infant and child care from my experience with babies and children from a young age, work as a doula, and having two children of my own. I have experience with multiples on various occasions. Additionally, my training in the healthcare field gives me the knowledge to skillfully care for and protect your greatest treasure.

A doula will empower and value you, providing confidence and guidance throughout the journey. I believe in the power of prenatal exercises to help balance your body in preparation for birth. These movements not only prepare you physically but will also be incorporated during labor to help your baby move into the optimal position, making the birthing process smoother for both you and your baby, and preparing you for a better recovery postpartum. ​

I am dedicated to walking alongside with you as you challenge the obstacles that seem to have held you back on your journey towards success and wholeness.
