Patient-Centered, Goal Oriented Naturopathic Medicine
A holistic approach with functional testing and individualized treatment
Area’s of Focus
I focus on the areas of health that have widespread impacts on wellbeing and disease development.
Metabolism
Metabolism is so more than just calories consumed and calories burned. It reflects the health of your cells and plays a key role in regulating your energy, mood, inflammation, organ function, hormones, and overall longevity.
Currently, ~20% of Canadians have three or more preventable metabolic conditions, and this number is increasing.
Keeping track of your metabolic health, along with maintaining regular exercise and a balanced diet, is the most effective way to prevent these conditions and support long-term well-being.
Know your numbers and keep them optimal!
Nutrient Status
Small deficiencies in key vitamins, minerals, amino acids, or essential fats can create ripple effects across energy, mood, hormones, immunity, and long-term disease risk. These imbalances are common — and often missed.
Your nutrient status reflects how your body is functioning beneath the surface. It’s influenced by stress, sleep, digestion, medications, inflammation, and more — not just diet.
By assessing and addressing nutrient status through individualized testing, we move from guessing to precision. This is how we restore balance, improve function, and build resilience — from the inside out
Hormonal Imbalance
Balanced hormones support steady energy, clear thinking, restorative sleep, a healthy cycle, emotional resilience, and a strong metabolism. They help you feel connected to yourself — focused, vibrant, and in rhythm with your day.
When things shift, it’s not always dramatic. You might just feel a little off: slower recovery, more irritability, disrupted sleep, or changes in mood, cycle, or motivation. These signals are not failures — they’re feedback.
The goal here isn’t perfection — it’s understanding how your body is driven to operate and helping it do its job.
GI & Liver
Your gastrointestinal tract interacts with more external elements than your skin. It absorbs the essential nutrients needed for survival, serves as a primary detoxification pathway, and hosts gut microbiota that outnumber all the body's cells combined. Additionally, it possesses its own nervous system, containing more neurons than the spinal cord.
Bloating, IBS, IBD, acid reflux, chronic constipation, frequent diarrhea, food sensitivities, and gut microbiome composition are highly individualized and require individual treatment.
While eating whole, unprocessed foods remains a foundational recommendation, truly effective care is more personalized. The goal is to identify the specific foods, patterns, and interventions that support your unique physiology, including which so-called “health foods” might be harming more than helping.
Stress & Nervous System
Today’s stressors are not the life-threatening dangers we evolved to respond to — but our nervous system reacts as if they are. Deadlines, financial worries, constant notifications, and social pressures can all activate the same fight-or-flight responses designed for survival.
It may present as chronic anxiety, low mood, irritability, sleep disruption, burnout, cognitive fog, or physical symptoms like headaches, muscle tension, and digestive issues.
Whether you’re a high-performing individual pushing through fatigue or someone feeling stuck in a cycle of burnout, stress affects each person differently. Genetics, life experience, nutrient status, and environment all shape your tolerance and recovery.
By understanding how stress is showing up in your body — and why — we can support your nervous system with targeted, individualized care to restore resilience and clarity.
Fatigue
Fatigue has many faces — wired but tired, brain fog, slow recovery, afternoon crashes, or the inability to get going at all. The root cause is often layered and unique to each individual.
Persistent low energy isn’t solved by more sleep or more coffee. It can be the result of hormone imbalance, nutrient deficiencies, chronic inflammation, poor mitochondrial function, blood sugar instability, hidden infections, disrupted circadian rhythms, emotional stress, or all of the above.
Inflammation & Immunity
You were designed to heal — your immune system makes it possible and inflammation is part of the process. It helps fight infections, repair injuries, and protect you from pathogens. But when it becomes chronic or dysregulated, it can quietly contribute to autoimmune conditions, seasonal or food allergies, eczema, psoriasis, joint pain, chronic infections, gastrointestinal disturbances, fatigue, brain fog, and long-term disease risk.
Your immune system is constantly responding to what you eat, how you sleep, the state of your gut, your stress levels, your environment, and even your mindset.
What is Naturopathic Medicine?
Naturopathic medicine is a patient-centered approach to healthcare that blends the latest in medical science with natural therapies. It’s built on the idea that health is more than the absence of disease — it’s the result of many interconnected systems working well together.
Healthcare should be tailored. As a naturopathic doctor, I take time to understand the full picture: your symptoms, your biomarkers, your lifestyle, stress levels, environment, responsibilities, and goals. I work on the root causes of imbalance and create a plan that supports healing, prevention, and long-term resilience.
We use clinical nutrition, herbal botanicals, modern diagnostics, physical medicine, health psychology, lifestyle counselling, and traditional chinese medicine in cooperation with your body. I often collaborate with medical doctors and other health professionals to ensure you get the care that’s right for you. Whether we’re addressing chronic conditions or optimizing your wellness and performance, naturopathic care is designed to be impactful, personalized, and evidence-informed.
Health should enhance life, not restrict it
I believe true health is about having the energy, focus, and resilience to both prevent disease development and perform at your best - whether that’s in your career, for your family, or getting the most out of life. My job is to help optimize wellness, assess and reduce disease risk, mitigate setbacks, and generate results that last.
