Helping you sort out your mental health and wellness issues. Removing restrictions that hold back your healing energies. Supporting you in making changes to reach your goals. Counseling w/ Natural Medicine treatments. Body psychotherapy. NES technology. Nutrition. Detox, more. Referral collaborations for brain mapping and Neurofeedback. Constructing a menu of options that fits your time, abilities and economic considerations.
I offer unique insights and techniques that help you sidestep "mental illness labels" and discover an alternate path to controlling your own life. Natural medicine for functional support and brain health coaching improves your control of your life.
My practice is within a network that includes medical doctors, biological dentists, psychologists, counselors and others in a Functional Medicine and Integrative Medicine setting. As a naturopathic physician I provide counseling and support the "molecular health and healing" program of Charles Gant, M.D. through the Academy of Functional Medicine, Dentistry and Psychology. I am certified in the NES ProVision technique that is described in the recent movie, The Living Matrix.
My doctorate is in naturopathic medicine and I have studied the science of Complementary and Alternative Medicine as well as western medical science. I have a masters degree in acupuncture and may choose to include no-needle acupoint stimulation. Insight counseling, hypnotherapy and biofeedback combined with scientific naturopathy considers allergies/hypersensitivities, Autonomic Nervous System function and excesses or deficiencies that affect mind and body.
Together we target and begin to remove blockages and "toxicities" that affect self-healing. I may draw upon mind-body correlations from Traditional Chinese Medicine, Ayurvedic Medicine, NES body-field assessments and Infoceutical recommendations. I may also use Soma-focus hypnotherapy, SCENAR-type electro stimulation for biofeedback and pain control. I will respect your religion or nonreligious commitment.
My support of your mental and physical health may also integrate body psychotherapy type techniques (craniosacral therapy and Somato-Emotional Release combined with other approaches; Note: this is not the trademarked IBP/Integrative Body Psychotherapy), breathing therapy, eye movement and mental field "tapping", and various biofeedback technologies.
I have a depth of experience with creating new options for people with a range of concerns such as enhancing wellness, child/adolescent performance, autism, cancer and chronic illness, or end-of-life issues. I can be your advocate as you face major life choice points.
