Hi! My name is Jessica. As a sensitive individual, I always knew I wanted to pursue the healing arts in some capacity.

While I was figuring out which direction to take during my undergraduate studies, I watched my mother navigate her breast cancer journey with stress and overwhelm - as she was sent to several different specialists, nurses failed to communicate about her medications resulting in two infections, and overall she was treated like a number instead of a person. Though she overcame her cancer journey, she was left to recover from the fatigue of the process. From an objective observation of the system, something felt like it was off.

I envisioned an alternative healing environment that felt more personalized and comforting than the fluorescent, fast-paced atmosphere of modern western medicine. This fueled my passion to pursue an alternative healing model. That polarizing view served me in discovering Ancient Chinese Medicine, but my approach is now much more integrative. I can appreciate the benefits of western medicine for its life-saving capabilities while standing behind a medical system that is rooted in a nuanced, holistic approach to preventive and reparative medicine. Ancient Chinese Medicine is a grounded approach to healing that has been quietly thriving for thousands of years. Deciding to pursue it has been more rewarding than I ever could have imagined.

In my own life, I’ve struggled with bouts of depression, social anxiety and moments of feeling unsafe in my body. Discovering the holistic perspectives of Chinese Medicine while simultaneously using its practical applications for my own healing has allowed me to reclaim more ease and resilience in my emotional life. Thus, a great joy of mine is in supporting others as they discover their inner resources and reclaim their own mental, emotional and physical resilience.

As a doctor of Ancient Chinese Medicine, I am here to create a healing environment that is comfortable and personalized as I nurture your body’s innate healing wisdom. Whether it be utilizing acupuncture, prescribing herbal medicine, or offering holistically-informed recommendations, my intention is to nourish your body’s innate healing ability so that you can move through life with more vitality and ease.
