Naturopathic Physician“True healing begins when we honor the body’s wisdom, nourish it with nature’s gifts, and trust in its ability to restore balance from within.”

My Story
At the core of my practice is a deep belief in the body’s innate ability to heal itself when given the right environment and tools. My approach to health and wellness is holistic, focusing on treating the whole person rather than just addressing symptoms.
My training at the True North Health Center in California, where I specialized in medically supervised water fasting, has provided me with a solid foundation in using fasting as a therapeutic tool. I combine this knowledge with a deep respect for the body’s natural healing processes, integrating nutrition, detoxification, and lifestyle adjustments to create individualized care plans.
Whether you’re dealing with chronic illness or simply looking to enhance your overall health, my goal is to guide you on a transformative journey toward optimal wellness.
My Values & Beliefs
The Power of Nature to Heal
I believe that the body, when given the right conditions, has an incredible capacity to heal itself. Through natural therapies, fasting, and whole foods, we can unlock this innate ability and restore balance.
Holistic Wellness
True health is about more than just the physical body—it encompasses the mind, emotions, and spirit. I approach healing by addressing all aspects of a person’s well-being for a fully integrated path to vitality.
Empowerment Through Education
I am passionate about empowering my clients to take control of their health. Through education and personalized guidance, I help individuals become their own greatest healers, equipped with the tools for long-lasting wellness.
My Approach
My philosophy centers on the concept of
food as medicine.
I believe that by embracing whole food nutrition and engaging in therapeutic fasting, we can unlock the body’s natural healing mechanisms.
It is my mission to guide and empower you to become your own most potent healer, fostering a deep connection between mind, body, and spirit.
