I was born and raised in Auburn, California and am a 1996 graduate of Bastyr University, the leading naturopathic medical school in North America. Growing up with my dad as a local doctor inspired me to pursue medicine myself. Personal illness with questions left unanswered by western medicine led me in the direction of naturopathic medicine. I am passionate about helping people find their optimal health. I fill up my free time with my husband and 2 beautiful daughters. Together we enjoy rock-climbing, horse back riding, surfing, gardening and just being together.

With the combination of my four years as consultant on use of bio-identical hormones, eight years in private practice and five years in research, this has given me valuable work and clinical experience in helping me to be a better doctor. Furthermore, it has given me insight into applying both the science and the art of practicing medicine. I feel very privileged to have worked with Dietrich Klinghardt, MD, PhD during my first three years in practice in Seattle, WA in which cutting edge treatments were used for several chronic conditions.

Restorative Medicine is a therapeutic approach aimed at restoring organ function and endocrine balance on a functional level such that, cellular, metabolic, and functional improvements can be long lasting reducing the need for multiple pharmaceutical interventions. Restorative Medicine seeks to cure the causes of chronic musculoskeletal pain by healing damage and degeneration of connective tissue caused by traumatic injuries and repetitive motion injuries. This is accomplished by injecting natural substances or one's own blood platelets and tissue stem cells directly into the problem areas in order to regenerate healthy tissue.

How to tell if Naturopathy is right for me?
A California naturopath is a practitioner of naturopathy, a form of alternative medicine based on the idea that the body has an innate capacity to heal itself. California Naturopaths improve health by treating the person holistically, tapping a person's own internal body, mind, and spirit resources. Naturopathy comprises a blend of different therapies, all attempting to restore the body to health in the most natural, noninvasive way possible by stimulating the body's own healing powers.
About California Naturopaths?
Graduates from accredited naturopathic medical schools may use the academic title 'Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine' or 'ND' but there is no standardized professional title in all states (see below). Accredited Naturopathic Doctors in California generally practice as primary care providers of naturopathic medicine preferring to use a holistic approach with natural remedies such as medicinal herbs and foods rather than conventional drugs.
