Menstruation should be struggle-free, period.
I know what it feels like to say no to things that I genuinely enjoy, that I would otherwise say yes to, if I wasn’t worried that they would overlap with my period.
You should not have to diminish your goals, miss out on plans, or suffer every month because of your period. I believe that a trusting, supportive doctor-patient relationship is critical for healing. We can figure this out together.

Never worked with a Naturopathic Doctor before?
That’s totally fine. 🙂 I work with many people new to Naturopathic Medicine. Please refer to my process and treatments for information on how we will work together. A good place to start is to schedule a free meet & greet, and we can walk through exactly what this process will look like for you.
