What makes you great at what you do?

My character. I practice with integrity and care deeply for my patients. I believe we are all healing every day and that I was born to come alongside people in their journey to heal. I honor where someone is at and feel it’s a privilege to be part of that journey with them.

What do you enjoy about this work?

Everything! I love supporting and being part of a woman’s journey during this time. I also really enjoy pregnancy treatments because I am providing treatment to two people at once, mother and baby. As the oldest of 5 children in my family I grew up
with many years of my mom’s pregnant belly.

What sets you apart from others in your field?

My passion and knowledge for working with mamas and mamas to be, my senior thesis in 2008 was a clinical trial on labor and delivery, specialized training/courses CEUs like studying at The Institute of Birth Healing, 12 years of practice specializing and the knowledge that that experience lends to what I do, attending school at Pacific College of Oriental Medicine in California, studying in China, knowing referrals for other specialists in the field and when to make a referral, and I have attended births.

Do you specialize in anything?

Is there anything else you’d like to share?

I grew up on a farm and started wildcrafting herbs and doing yoga with my mother when I was a small child. My mother gave birth naturally and at home to 3 out of 5 children. I learned the holistic way of life from a very young age. I still do not like wheatgrass juice although I do love a fresh green juice on a hot summers day.
