At Community Acupuncture Clinic Boulder we are certified and licensed Acupuncturists and Herbalists. Our work is focused on identifying and supporting the body’s own healing potential to work at its optimum through Acupuncture, Herbal Medicine, CranioSacral Therapy, and Nutritional Counseling.

I specialize in helping one to find their path to health whether that be less pain, ability to make it through the next day, or to facilitate natural healing. I am an advocate for LGBTQ+ and wish to aid the community in many ways.

I am an Acupuncturist and Herbalist accustomed to treating a wide variety of conditions ranging from chronic and acute pain, to allergies, to hormonal imbalances associated with menopause and autoimmune disorders, to palliative care for cancer patients, as well as insomnia and anxiety. My main goal is to provide thorough, yet gentle patient-centered care regardless of age or ailment.
I utilize a variety of techniques in each session such as Gua Sha, Cupping, Auriculotherapy, Electroacupuncture, Moxabustion, TuiNa bodywork, Passive stretching, Eastern nutritional and lifestyle advice, and herbal therapy.
