You’re Not Alone.
Over 50% of children today will develop a chronic disease by the time they're 16 years old.
Is desperately searching for the WHY behind your child’s health concerns?
Feels overwhelmed without professional guidance?
Has exhausted all conventional methods?
Is tired of being told “we don’t know why...” or “here’s the diagnosis - we can’t do anything more for you”.

The Solution
Helping Kids Thrive, Naturally
I know how hard it is when your child isn’t feeling their best—it affects the whole family. That’s why I take a root-cause approach to pediatric wellness, helping parents uncover what’s really going on with their child’s health and creating personalized plans to support long-term healing.
How I Can Help:
Tummy Troubles? I work with kids struggling with constipation, diarrhea, bloating, reflux, and gut imbalances to help little bellies feel better.
ADHD & Mood Support– If your child has trouble focusing, is hyperactive, anxious, or has trouble sleeping, I offer natural, functional medicine strategies to support brain health and emotional balance.
Chronic Ear Infections, Allergies, & Immune Health – Whether it’s constant colds, eczema, asthma, food allergies, histamine intolerance, or sensitivities, I help strengthen the immune system from the inside out.
Hormonal Imbalances & Growth Concerns – From early puberty to PCOS and blood sugar issues, I help regulate hormones naturally.
