'WITHOUT NOURISHING OURSELVES, WE CAN'T CREATE PHYSICAL HEALTH, WE CAN'T CREATE MENTAL HEALTH."
Topics Covered:
“Clients come to see me for one of two big reasons: because they’re frustrated with not feeling well (despite traditional medical care); and, because they’re seeking a natural, drug free lifestyle approach they can sustain for healthier life long-term. Using my background in holistic wellness, I assess the interplay and imbalances between physical, emotional and mental stressors, and how these are creating symptoms. For each client, their personalized, integrated health plan includes food, herbs, nutrients, lifestyle modification, and tools for self-care."
