From the practitioner: About My Practice

Initially trained in family practice , I am also a diplomat in integrative medicine, acupuncture and certified in functional medicine.
I have recently became certified as an integrative psychiatric provider ( CIPP) with the Integrative Psychiatry Institute.

From the practitioner: What Patients Can Expect

Clients goals and expectations are all unique. As a practitioner, I hope to help patients refine and achieve their goals by working in a partnership. This type of approach allows for the patients story to be heard and focus on the underlying causes that are impeding the client from reaching their best. It works to elucidate the ‘ why ‘ of symptoms not simply using a label. All people are different and all solutions may also be different.
One size does not fit all.
