Using ancient medicine with modern wisdom, I strive to help my patients achieve their health goals. My ultimate goal is to prevent diseases and illness from arising. Through detailed discussion about ones health history, I gain a clearer understanding into how an individuals body works and create a treatment plan specifically for them.

Conditions I treat: Pain, headaches, gynecological health, sleep disorders, eye diseases, digestive disorders, common cold, flu, MVA recovery, cardiovascular disease, just to name a few.

I am dedicated to helping you be as active as you wish and live a pain-free life, whether the pain is emotional or physical. Whether you suffer from an acute or chronic condition or injury, I can work with you to lessen pain and speed healing.
I can work with you to bring your life back into balance through psychotherapy and/or acupuncture. Through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy you can learn to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors which leads to the vicious cycle of negative emotions or dysfunctional relationships. Acupuncture can help alleviate stress, improve mood, sleep and physical ailments without medications or work as an adjunctive treatment to your prescribed medications.



Think of it as your opportunity to form a partnership for better health. The more you take part in your healing process, the more successful it will be
