After giving birth, my patients brought their children in for treatment. Now I’ve had the pleasure of working with children from birth all the way through college, as well as their mothers through menopause and beyond. Along the way, I also developed a specialty in helping people relieve chronic digestive issues and treat degenerative diseases.
No matter what life stage my patients are in, or what challenges they are facing, I see my role as facilitator—not “fixer.” Together, the patient and I create the conditions where they can relax enough to hear what their bodies are trying to tell them, decipher its messages, and then develop an action plan that helps them meet their bodies’ needs.
In my decades of practice, I have found that if a patient guides her own process and I am there merely to support and advise, the change is much more profound and more long lasting than if I took the more traditional approach of assigning a set course of treatment.
As a result of this collaborative process, patients’ physical conditions often improve; so do many other aspects of their lives. Once the internal energy starts moving, self-confidence, relationships, and even jobs often change for the better. It is such an honor and a joy to do this work. If you have read this far, I hope that you and I will have the opportunity to collaborate on your own healing.
