Navigating the healthcare choices for your children can be confusing and overwhelming. Having a holistic healthcare provider on your team can make this exciting time feel so much easier.
My Role:
From tracking your child’s growth and development, to assistance with breastfeeding or solid food introduction, vaccine counseling, natural support when your child is sick and so much more, I can help make your parenting job less stressful in the age of information overload.
Starting at birth we are laying down a foundation for lifelong health. I can support you in creating a wellness-focused lifestyle for you and your family that includes healthy eating habits, stress management, techniques for strengthening the immune system, and regular sleep and rest.
Children are rapidly developing humans and have a special set of healthcare considerations, and you need a naturopathic doctor that has been carefully trained to understand these considerations. Beyond the basic training received in naturopathic medical school, I also draw on my years of experience delivering babies and caring for newborns, my years of practice at the Odessa Brown Children’s Clinic in Seattle, and my passion to be a holistic mama to my own little one. I stay up to date on the latest research and treatment options so that I can help you make the most informed decisions when it comes to caring for your little ones.
In Colorado, Naturopathic Doctors are not permitted to prescribe medications or administer vaccinations. This is why I recommend you include a regular pediatrician to your child’s healthcare team along with my services. That way you have access to important medicines when they are needed.
