As a DACM, DC, and IFMCP, I specialize in pinpointing and resolving underlying health issues. That includes assessing gut health, hormonal imbalances, metabolic function, and nutritional deficiencies—all guided by advanced functional medicine labs.
Using my “3T’s” approach (Temporary, Targeted & Therapeutic), I create customized, clinical-grade supplement protocols for each phase of your healing. These are tailored to your unique root causes, wellness goals, and lab results.
Beyond supplements, I offer expert recommendations on nutrition, lifestyle adjustments, and mind-body techniques to continually enhance your well-being and help you create your next healthful chapter.
Note: I’m not a conventional physician prescribing drugs, surgery, or diagnosing medical conditions. Should conventional interventions be required, I collaborate with primary care providers or specialists to ensure you’re fully supported. Holistic health can be “and/and’ rather than “either/or.”

Functional medicine is a personalized, patient-centered approach to healthcare that focuses on identifying and addressing the root causes of illness or imbalance in the body. It considers the complex interactions between genetics, environment, and lifestyle factors to optimize health and prevent disease.
Unlike conventional medicine, which often treats symptoms with medications or surgeries, functional medicine seeks to understand and address the underlying factors contributing to health issues. It emphasizes a holistic approach, aiming to promote wellness rather than just managing disease.
Functional medicine can address a wide range of acute and chronic health conditions, including digestive disorders, hormonal imbalances, autoimmune diseases, metabolic issues, chronic fatigue, and more. It’s particularly effective for conditions with complex underlying causes.
During a functional medicine consultation, you can expect a comprehensive assessment of your health history, symptoms, lifestyle factors, and environmental influences. Your practitioner will work with you to develop a personalized treatment plan focused on addressing the root causes of your health concerns.
In short, functional medicine services are generally not covered by conventional health insurance as they are outside of the “conventional medicine paradigm”.
Insurance typically reimburses for conventional Western medicine tests, which focus primarily on diagnosing disease states and identifying pathology. In contrast, functional medicine labs, which are self-pay, provide a deeper and more comprehensive analysis of specific bodily systems, and evaluate functional and dysfunction on a scale rather than as “disease states”. This approach opens the door to treatment options outside the conventional model as well are not typically available through general practitioners (GPs) and primary care physicians (PCPs).
Functional medicine incorporates a variety of treatment modalities, including nutritional therapy, lifestyle modifications, stress management techniques, targeted supplementation, detoxification protocols, and mind-body therapies. The approach is highly individualized based on each patient’s unique needs.
The timeline for seeing results with functional medicine varies depending on the complexity of your health issues, your adherence to the wellness plan, and other factors. While some patients experience improvements in symptoms relatively quickly, achieving long-term wellness often requires ongoing commitment and patience.
