Working Together
I am flexible about finding ways for us to work together. I will work with you in person (in Portland, OR), by phone, or via your preferred online method (e.g., Skype, FaceTime, Google Hangouts). Health and wellbeing issues can have a far-reaching impact on a person’s life, and so I am available to work with your partner, spouse, and family as well if ever you need it. A supportive therapeutic relationship is of paramount importance to me. I will work with you long term to offer continuity of care so that together we can address all issues that challenge your right to robust health and wellbeing. I am also happy to guide you with referrals to other providers and in making the most informed decisions about treatments so that you get the best of integrative care.

Below you’ll find more information about my concierge medicine approach, and what to expect when working with me.
concierge medicine
Chronic health conditions can feel as if they appeared over night but in reality they take a long time to develop, and they need long-term support to heal. Because of this, I offer care through a concierge medicine model. Concierge medicine is a patient-focused relationship aimed at long-term holistic, preventative care rather than symptom management alone. I offer a 3-month starter package, as well as 6-month and 12-month concierge packages for deep healing, so that we can work together over a longer term, and I can work with you in different ways as your needs change. I work with only a few people at any time to ensure I can give each person my unimpeded attention.
Healing an ingrained pattern entails not only symptomatic relief, but addressing causes, finding inner resources to mitigate any future setbacks, and addressing other areas of our lives where emotions, thoughts, and behaviors do not support our health and well being. My approach works best with people who see themselves as a proactive partner in their healing process.
I encourage you to sign up for a free phone consultation with me. This consultation will include some assessment and recommendations. If we feel we are a good fit to work together, the next step will be a 90-minute appointment in which you will receive treatment and a detailed plan for going forward. At that point, we will decide together whether the 3-month starter package or one of the two concierge packages are the best next steps for you.

what to expect
For in-person energy medicine treatments, you will lie fully clothed on a comfortable treatment table. For remote sessions (i.e., by phone, Skype, etc.), it’s best if you can be seated or lying comfortably (so not driving your car, for example). For in-person meetings, I will ask you not to wear any perfumes or cologne, as many of my patients have chemical sensitivities.
Your initial session will include a compassionate and thorough review of your history and concerns. We will begin to retrain your nervous system from the outset, and soothe the patterns, root causes, and obstacles that are keeping you in pain and preventing you from living life fully.
Even though the work of deep healing takes a long-term commitment, you will likely feel pain relief and an overall sense of improved well being early on in the treatment process.
Subsequent sessions will combine energy medicine, whole-person counseling, and homeopathic remedies as needed to bring you increasing pain relief and greater harmony of body, heart, and mind. You will also be able to call or email me between sessions when you have questions or need additional support.
health insurance
I am happy to provide you with receipts to submit to your insurance carrier, but I do not bill insurance directly.
