Catalyst for Change
For more than 34 years, I’ve been helping people move beyond pain and reclaim their health. While my career began in chiropractic and sports medicine, I soon realized that lasting healing requires looking beyond symptoms to understand why the body has lost balance. That curiosity led me to Functional Medicine and ultimately to co-founding Root and Reason Functional Medicine.
Throughout my career, I’ve continued to expand my approach through advanced training in Functional Medicine, Quantum Neurology, Psych-K, peptide therapy, and gentle low-force chiropractic techniques. I believe the body has an extraordinary capacity to heal when we support its foundations—nutrition, movement, sleep, stress resilience, metabolic health, and hormone balance. My role is to help uncover the root causes that are keeping people from feeling their best and create personalized strategies that restore health from the inside out.
As a practitioner and a woman who has naturally navigated the transition into menopause with few symptoms, I understand both the science and the lived experience of hormonal change. That journey has strengthened my belief that women don’t have to accept fatigue, weight gain, brain fog, or feeling unlike themselves as an inevitable part of aging. With the right support, the body can thrive through every stage of life.
Living in Squamish keeps me connected to the lifestyle I encourage my clients to embrace. Whether I’m skiing, biking, or spending time outdoors with my family, I’m reminded that health isn’t simply the absence of disease—it’s having the energy, strength, and confidence to fully enjoy life. My goal is to help every client understand their body, uncover the root causes of their symptoms, and build lasting wellness for years to come.
“When health is absent,
wisdom cannot reveal itself, art cannot be manifest, strength cannot be exerted, wealth is useless, and reason is powerless.” — Herophilus
