As a teenager, I was saved by traditional medication when I required 5 years of intense chemotherapy for a form of leukemia.

I did relatively well with the treatment (other than heart issues from one of the medications) and was even able to get pregnant on my own. After the birth of my daughter I never bounced back and remained exhausted, developed recurrent sinusitis (which required surgery), psoriasis, and Hashimoto’s thyroiditis. I went to a traditional endocrinologist, dermatologist, and ENT. None of the recommendations they had were any different than what I was already doing, and I was not getting any better. I had a newborn, busy husband, and a full practice of patients that needed my help.

I had been exploring alternative/integrative medicine my whole career, because I never understood WHY the focus of traditional medicine was on the symptoms and not the CAUSE. When I was left without answers I decided to go out and find them for myself! I started attending seminars and got Board Certified in Anti-Aging and Functional Medicine, and educated myself on the critical role of diet and nutrition. I was then exposed to alternative techniques like Applied Kinesiology and Orthogonal Adjustments. What I found was that, FINALLY, I started to improve! My energy, skin, sinuses, and autoimmune symptoms were getting better. I knew I needed to bring all of this to my patients, many of whom had been stuck in the traditional medicine conundrum, and they started improving, too!

As my own quest for optimal health has continued, I have created a village of healers in all of the modalities that have truly helped to heal me. The approach I use is outlined in my first book, GET LIT.

My goal is to guide as many individuals as I can on their journey from healing to optimal performance and beyond. I believe we all have infinite potential to heal and reach levels we didn’t even know were possible in mind, body, and spirit. I am thrilled to have the opportunity to be a part of your journey to the highest, most LIT version of you!
