I am a licensed acupuncturist and board-certified in Chinese medicine by the NCCAOM. I am also an ordained minister and certified practitioner of integrative energy medicine and Sufi healing from the IM School of Healing Arts. The foundation of my work relies on many years of studying the healing arts / philosophies of Sufism, Daoism, and Buddhism. I incorporate various modalities such as acupuncture, integrative energy medicine, and contemplative counseling into personally customized treatments for everyone. No one person and no one treatment is the same. I treat ALL demographics, all ages, and all disorders of the human condition with a special focus on women’s reproductive health and PTSD / trauma therapy.

I believe that ones’ spiritual process plays a big role in one’s healing process regardless of the dis-ease or pathology that shows itself. I have devoted my life to helping others on their path of self-transformation. The goal is to help those who are stuck in old behaviors and patterns based on various events or life experiences. When this happens to you, it can affect your whole worldview and how you see yourself, often preventing you from moving in the direction your soul desires. It can also manifest as physical symptoms and sicknesses. We need to acknowledge what has happened to you and help you transform, metabolize, and move on from those experiences into a fuller, richer life. Being able to have a different experience of yourself is the true definition of healing on all levels.

When I work with patients, each treatment is based on how you present in clinic that day. I may choose to do energy work alone or with acupuncture. A treatment can last anywhere from 45 minutes to 1 hour, depending on what is going on for you that day.

I believe in community-building actions, forward and positive thinking, helping each other, spreading love and joy, creating events and forums for networking, sharing the wealth, and optimizing our health as humans and animals on one planet.
