About me
I grew up in Hamilton, Ontario which is also where I completed my undergraduate degree in biology and psychology at McMaster University. My own healthcare experiences led me to the wonderful world of naturopathic medicine and after earning my Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine degree at the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine in Toronto, I returned home to Hamilton where I currently practice. I love travelling, gardening, and exploring Hamilton’s beautiful hiking trails and waterfalls. I have a special interest in chronic health concerns, mental health, children’s health, pain management, and universal accessibility to individualized, quality healthcare.

Naturopathic Medicine
Naturopathic medicine helps improve your symptoms by finding and addressing what is causing them. In order to find the root cause of your symptoms, initial appointments are approximately one hour in length and include a thorough history intake and any relevant physical exams. While some treatments may be initiated during the first visit, the majority of the treatment will be carried out in subsequent follow-up visits.
Treatments are aimed at addressing you as a whole person, the root cause of your symptoms and work to best support your body's natural healing ability. They can include nutritional and lifestyle counseling, homeopathy, traditional chinese medicine, botanical medicine, massage and hydrotherpy. Each treatment plan is individualized to you as a person. It's all about what works best for you to help you be the best, most healthy version of yourself!
