My Medical Approach.
Welcome! I'm a licensed naturopathic physician in Arizona. I work with patients of all ages to address chronic health concerns, integrative mental/emotional health and preventative medicine. My goal is to hold a safe, neutral space where we can collaborate to find ways to support your healing process.​
Although I am trained and licensed as primary-care physician, I offer adjunct naturopathic care only. I recommend all patients see a primary-care provider regularly for routine screenings, medical diagnostics, and urgent concerns.
My Story.
I discovered naturopathic medicine during my undergraduate studies at Colorado School of Mines in Golden, Colorado. Naturopathic medicine emphasizes holistic healing through self-empowerment and connection with nature, which resonated deeply with me.​ I received my bachelor's degree in chemistry in 2011 and began my professional journey including positions in public health epidemiology, education and research. I spent time traveling internationally and moving throughout the western United States.
My path to naturopathic medicine continued when I returned to school and completed my Doctorate of Naturopathic Medicine degree at National University of Natural Medicine (NUNM) in Portland, Oregon in 2022. I worked with physicians focusing on primary care, mental health, women's health and pediatrics. I obtained additional training in pelvic floor physical therapy and clinical homeopathy. During naturopathic medical school, I became pregnant, naturally, with my first child (after years of unexplained infertility) and began my miraculous journey as a mother. Naturopathic medicine has helped my family and me find our way to wellness over and over again. It is one of my greatest joys to aid in this process for others. ​
Outside of the clinic, I spend time with my wonderful spouse and our two adventurous children. I love evening walks, reading books, wilderness time (hiking, camping, foraging), gardening, cooking, traveling, and music.​
