The Naturopathic Momma is inspired by my own mother and children. Life has certified me as a holistic healer and coach through personal experiences with illness. Formal training was done with Dr. Akua and A Life of Peace Wellness Education Institute. My mission is to help families take a holistic approach to health and wellness for the mind, body, and spirit through naturopathic assessments and recommendations.

My holistic journey has been inspired by my own mother. She died from the harsh treatment of breast cancer in the 1980s when I was a young teenager. Her untimely death pushed me to remain active throughout college and my young adulthood. Although I was health conscious, I was still following the standard American diet and food guidelines provided.

Once I got married and had my own children, holistic wellness became more important. My oldest child had eczema like I did. He was also diagnosed with asthma. We did it all, from inhalers to allergy testing. After a lot of research and a dramatic visit to the ER, we knew diet was a significant factor in his ailments. That one visit made me rethink the trajectory of our shopping habits and overall lifestyle.

 
We took a complete holistic approach to healing my son because all the doctor's recommendations were only making him more off-balance and sicker.  We began a regimen of acupuncture and Chinese herbs to regain his health. Long term we added aromatherapy, breathwork, lung-building exercises like swimming, and herbal therapy.

During this time, my stepmother died of a rare skin cancer. Her journey opened my eyes to how much the MIND aligns with the BODY and the impact on the SPIRIT. I observed how stress impacts your health.

I learned more about the mind-body-spirit connection and committed myself to NATUROPATHIC MASTERY. As a result, The Naturopathic Momma was created. Formal training was done with Dr. Akua and A Life of Peace Wellness Education Institute. Once I graduated and became a Board Certified Holistic Practitioner, I officially started to take on clients with a focus on detox and fasting protocols. 

 
My mission is to help mothers and their families take a holistic approach to health and wellness for the mind, body, and spirit through detoxification and fasting. I am a guide and coach to help others learn how to heal themselves through whole foods, herbs, and alternative therapies.
