Your Initial Naturopathic Consultation and Appointment
At your first appointment you can expect that you and your Naturopathic Doctor will do a lot of talking. They want to hear all about what you are experiencing and how it is impacting your life. They will ask about your health history and your current lifestyle. If you have any recent blood work, test results, or any other pertinent medical information, please bring it along with you to your first appointment. They will do any necessary physical exams that are related to your health concerns. If applicable, they may decide to run some additional diagnostic testing. Together, you and your Naturopathic Doctor will discuss a treatment plan that will work for you and your busy lifestyle. By the time you leave, the hope is that you will feel empowered to take your health into your own hands. The initial visit runs anywhere from 60-90 minutes.

Your Follow Up Naturopathic Appointment
At your follow up appointments, you and your Naturopathic Doctor will track your progress. They will determine if you need to continue with the current treatment plan, or if modifications need to be made. The follow up appointments vary in length, and can be anywhere from 30-60 minutes.
Acupuncture
Together, you and your Naturopathic Doctor may decide that acupuncture will be a good adjunctive therapy to include in your treatment plan. Acupuncture is most effective if done regularly and consistently. Therefore, when including acupuncture as part of your plan, it is best to do a treatment once per week for 6-10 weeks.

Your Treatment Plan
Our Naturopathic Doctors believe that simple changes can result in amazing health outcomes. They often look at diet and lifestyle first, as these two things are the foundations for our health. Making changes to your diet and lifestyle are cost-effective and profound. However, they may also recommend nutritional or herbal supplements and acupuncture to help correct for any deficiencies, combat any underlying infections, or to “reset” processes in the body that may not be running as smoothly as they should. They use supplements strategically, meaning you won't leave their office with a laundry list of things to take. They do not believe that there are any “magic pills” or single “super foods” that can cure all that may ail us in a sustainable way, but they do believe in the power of making a daily commitment to making healthy choices. 
20 Minute Complimentary Consultation
To see if we might be a good fit, we invite you to book a complimentary 20 minute consultation, where you and your Naturopathic Doctor can meet in person at Yoga Mamas and discuss how you might work together to achieve your health goals.

Naturopathic Doctor
​
​As a Licensed Naturopathic Doctor, I am determined to help patients achieve optimal health in order to lead an optimal life. I do this by uncovering and addressing the root cause of all health concerns while also providing naturally focused, yet easy solutions that fit you and your lifestyle. I understand that each person is unique and therefore all treatments are personalized to suit your unique needs. With the right tools and empowerment, together we will work to make health and wellness simple and attainable.

In my clinical practice, I focus on women’s health including fertility, hormonal and digestive health. I am passionate about working with women who are aiming to feel their best, optimize their hormones, enhance fertility and achieve pregnancy (if desired!).

My Education and Credentials
I graduated from the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine with a post-graduate degree in Naturopathic Medicine. Previous to this, I completed my Bachelor of Science in Nursing and graduated with honours from Ryerson University. After becoming a Registered Nurse, I spent several interesting years working in the field of forensics mental health! I am currently a licensed member of both the College of Nurses (CNO) and the College of Naturopaths of Ontario (CONO). I am also a member of the Ontario Association of Naturopathic Doctors (OAND) and the Canadian Association of Naturopathic Doctors (CAND).

I am an avid lover of all things photography and travel, but nothing beats a perfectly brewed matcha latte!
​As licensed Naturopathic Doctors, our goal is to provide individualized health care that is aimed at treating the cause of your symptoms or condition, and not just the symptoms or condition itself. We practice patient-centred care, meaning that you and your health are my top priority. We want to be a part of your healthcare team, and are interested in communicating with the other healthcare practitioners you are working with, including (but not limited to) your family doctor, specialist, chiropractor, registered massage therapist, physiotherapist, or osteopath.
