Naturopathic care for your
PCOS, fertility, & hormones.
Spend less time worrying about your periods,
and more time living the life you want to live.
Googling how you can decode the mysterious signs your menstrual cycle is sending you about your hormones, fertility, and health?
Scrolling on social media hoping to find the oh-so-elusive hormone balance, spending your hard-earned money on supplements that you try with your fingers crossed? (Don't worry, I'm not judging!)
You deserve answers. You deserve a strategy designed specifically for you.
What's the cost of doing nothing?
Seriously, take a minute and about that … If you’re like most people I know, you want to be able to see the world, spend time with loved ones, and be able to live life as fully as you can as you (inevitably) grow older.
Your hormones and periods are a vital part of you. They impact how you feel, connect, react, perform, and live your life!
My own PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome) led me down this path of becoming a licensed naturopathic doctor. For almost a decade, I’ve had the honour of working with thousands of people from menarche to menopause.
Life is short, but it’s also long. Don’t put yourself at the bottom of your to-do list. You deserve to feel well. It’s never too late to take control of your health.
Looking for someone who will actually answer questions like: Do I actually have PCOS? Am I in perimenopause? Is it normal for my period to change from 3 days to 7? Why am I so tired and moody before my period? Is estrogen actually bad?
You're in the right place.
Ask all the health questions you've been wanting to ask.
Whether you’re struggling with PCOS, PMS, PMDD, infertility, endometriosis, perimenopausal changes, unexplained hormonal issues, or are simply trying to understand your body, you probably have questions you haven’t found the answers to.
You know your body best. You deserve healthcare meant for you, your dreams, your goals, and your life. Bring your questions, we’ll have some real conversations about you and your goals.
Pesky premenstrual symptoms got you feeling all over the place?
The PMS Companion has practical ways for a more peaceful periods using items likely in your kitchen.
And guess what?! It's absolutely FREE!
You'll also join The Periodical email club everyone and their mum is talking about. (Well, mainly my mum. That counts, right?!)
START living in harmony with your hormones
You don't need another detox. You need a strategy.
PCOS & PCOS Fertility
Polycystic ovarian syndrome, a condition I am personally VERY familiar with. Whether it’s irregular cycles, hirsutism, insulin resistance, acne, infertility and subfertility, and long-term risks, there are many ways to sustainably and systematically support your PCOS through supplements, nutrition, medications, hormones, exercise, lifestyle, acupuncture, and testing.
Periods & Hormone Health
Your menstrual cycle is a vital sign telling us about your hormones, brain, and risk factors for future illnesses (amongst other things). From your first to your final period ever, change is inevitable whether you have a diagnosis like PMS, PMDD, dysmenorrhea, or endometriosis, or are looking to optimise your health.
Fertility & Fertility Acupuncture
The fertility journey can be supported in many ways depending on what’s going on. Egg quality, sperm parameters, menstrual cycle health, hormone levels, nutrition, age, and other factors play key roles. Acupuncture is also available for supporting natural conception as well as anyone using assisted reproductive technologies (i.e., IUI acupuncture and IVF acupuncture).
Perimenopause & Hormone Therapy
Perimenopausal changes can start to happen around a decade before your final period ever.
Whether you’re looking for menopause hormone therapy, natural solutions, or a combination approach, I’ve got your back! Herbs, acupuncture, hormones, nutrition, exercise–we talk about all your options and customize a plan that works for you.
Facial Acupuncture
Imagine a relaxed jaw, less puffiness, more even skin tone, a reduction in fine lines, improved collagen production, hydrated skin… all while feeling and looking fresher. That’s what facial rejuvenation acupuncture is all about. It’s a full body treatment with a focus on your face. Each treatment ends with an oh-so-relaxing facial massage with lymphatic drainage using an antioxidant serum and face oil.
Plant-based Lifestyle Support
Whether you follow a vegan lifestyle, a vegetarian diet, or are simply plant-focused, sometimes it’s hard to find a practitioner who is well-versed in plant-based nutrition. I support all kinds of eaters and backgrounds. BUT, since I’m vegan myself, I am pretty educated in plant-based nutrition for hormone health (aaand I see plant-based fertility & vegan pregnancy patients regularly).
1:1 naturopathic care is available to anyone in Ontario, Canada. Telemedicine appointments are available to anyone across ON, and in-person care in Newmarket, ON.

Acknowledgements
I would like to acknowledge that my practice is based out of York Region (Newmarket) & Simcoe County (Sharon, East Gwillimbury, Innisfil) in Ontario, the traditional territory and home to the Anishinaabe, the Chippewas, the Wendat, and the Haudenosaunee peoples. I am grateful to have the opportunity to live and work in these communities and on this land, owing much of what I know about our planet, its inhabitants, health and wellness, and medicine to Indigenous Peoples globally. As a naturopathic practitioner, I must also acknowledge the devaluing, appropriation, and misrepresentation of traditional knowledge and practices worldwide by the profession I’m a part of. I commit to address this part of history as I continue to unlearn, learn, honour, and advocate for reconciliation, equity, inclusivity, and social justice.
