My Health Journey

My journey with chronic health issues began at the age of 19 and lasted for over 15 years, but the good news is, I did get well, and along the way, I learned what it takes to truly heal especially from toxic mold exposure and nervous system dysregulation! Hear the full story below….

My Professional Journey

My journey to becoming a neural retraining and mold illness expert was a windy road starting with my own health issues, becoming a naturopathic physician and acupuncturist and treating hundreds of patients with complex chronic illness, and realizing that both toxic mold exposure and nervous system dysregulation are absolute epidemics among the chronically ill, and often the biggest obstacles to healing.

Who am I outside of work?

  • A lover of learning about all things health, psychology, and the human experience! I try to learn something new every day, and put everything I learn to the test on myself so I can share my experience with others.

  • A lover of nature - I love hiking in the wilderness, kayaking, and fishing. 

  • A dog mom and lover. I have two sweet pups that light up my life and keep me young.  

  • A builder – my husband and I are currently designing a mold-resistant home. Previously, we converted a short school bus into a camper by ourselves.

  • A tea addict– I love making my own combinations at home, and visiting creative tea houses.
