Naturopathic care for your
PCOS, fertility, & hormones.
Spend less time worrying about your periods,
and more time living the life you want to live.
Wondering how you can decode the mysterious signs and signals your menstrual cycle is sending you about your hormones, fertility, and general landscape of your health?
You're in the right place.
I'm here to help you understand the language of your hormones and periods. You can call me the hormone detective.... or, just Anne works too!
Hi, I'm Dr. Anne!
I believe that when you take care of your hormones and health, you can accomplish anything.
Your hormones and periods are a vital part of you. They impact how you feel, connect, react, perform, and live your life!
And your life and thoughts, in turn, affect your hormones and menstrual cycles… we’re cyclical beings after all.
My own PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome) led me toward this path of becoming a licensed naturopathic doctor. For almost a decade, I’ve had the honour of working with thousands of menstruators.
I want you to get to know your body well and have the tools to support your health, so that you can spend less time feeling overwhelmed, and more time doing the things you love — that’s what it’s all about, right?!

Your periods deserve more than a Google search on "hormone hacks" that you try with your fingers crossed.
You deserve a comprehensive assessment, proper testing, and an approach designed specifically for you.

Let's work together

PCOS & PCOS Fertility
Polycystic ovarian syndrome… a condition I am personally VERY familiar with — is super common. With irregular cycles, hirsutism, hair loss, and insulin resistance (and some other stuff!), it can be a confusing and overwhelming condition. There is lots that can be done here, and I’m living proof of that.
PCOS fertility patients face some unique challenges when it comes to getting pregnant and having a healthy PCOS pregnancy. There is a higher risk for pregnancy complications. If this is you — even if you’re working with a fertility clinic — there is A LOT we can do to improve your chances to conceiving and having a healthy baby.

Periods & Hormone Health
Your menstrual cycle is a vital sign (like your blood pressure, pulse rate, temperature, and breathing rate). It gives vital information about what your hormones are doing, what your brain is saying, how you feel day in and day out, and your risk factors for future illnesses (amongst other things, of course!).
From menarche (your first ever period) to menopause (after your final period ever), there is lots that can change. Wherever you are along that spectrum, there is support available to you 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 a variety of different ways depending on what’s going on in your health. Egg quality, sperm parameters, menstrual cycle health, medical diagnoses, hormone levels, vitamin status, age, and many other factors play key roles. A deep dive into health, testing, nutrition, supplements, hormones, medications, herbs, and acupuncture can help improve success rates.
Fertility acupuncture available for supporting natural conception as well as anyone using assisted reproductive technologies (i.e., IUI acupuncture and IVF acupuncture (retrieval and transfer)).

Perimenopause & Hormone Therapy
The thing you really need to know is that you do not have to suffer during the menopause transition. Will there be changes in periods? Yes! That part is inherent to perimenopause that can start even 10 years 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 acupuncture treatment– everything’s connected, after all! — with a focus on your face. Once the acupuncture needles are out, each treatment is finished off 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, I’d be happy to be your guide to meeting your health goals and getting all your nutrients in a no-nonsense kind of way.
Sometimes it’s hard to find a practitioner who is well-versed in plant-based nutrition. I support all kinds of eaters and backgrounds in my practice. Since I’m vegan myself, I am pretty educated in plant-based nutrition for hormone health (aaand I see lots of plant-based fertility & vegan pregnancy patients in practice).
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 & Simcoe County, ON, 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.
