Our Vision
The idea to create this practice was born out of my own lived frustration at the limitations of the conventional medicine/managed healthcare model. In all stages of my life, I have been offered anxiolytics and/or antidepressants for symptoms I was experiencing due to autoimmune issues. Again and again, I was told to believe in the same flawed narrative: “you’re a new mom- aches and pains are normal”; “you’re perimenopausal – this is your new normal”; “just deal with it– antidepressants can help.” The “drive thru” model of 3-5 minute visits with my healthcare providers often left me feeling unheard, unseen, and unhelped.
I knew I wasn’t the only one- many people have similar experiences with an uninspired and impersonal healthcare system.
I am here to give all my patients the opportunity to be seen, heard, educated, and inspired. I strive to ensure that my patients are uplifted and empowered to achieve their goals.
