Your Symptoms Matter. And They May Not Be the Whole Story.
Personalized Integrative Care that begins with listening — to what you’re experiencing and what may be connected.
Registered Acupuncturist
Certified BodyTalk Practitioner | Certified Life Coach
Maybe you came here looking for one thing.
Acupuncture for pain. BodyTalk® for stress. Lymphatic drainage for swelling.
Or maybe you’re not quite sure what you need — only that something hasn’t felt right.
Either way, you’re in the right place.
Our bodies don’t experience life in neat little categories.
Pain can affect sleep. Stress can change digestion. How we’re feeling emotionally can influence what’s happening physically. Sometimes, several things are connected — even when they seem unrelated.
Over the years, I’ve learned that each approach gives us a different way of looking at what someone is experiencing.
Sometimes one lens is exactly what we need. Sometimes another perspective gives us something worth exploring.
Whatever brought you here, that’s where we begin.
SIGNATURE INTEGRATIVE CARE
One Session. All of You.
A personalized 75-minute session that gives us room to look at what you’re experiencing from more than one perspective — without assuming that every concern needs every approach.
Each modality offers a different lens. Together, they give us more ways to explore what may be connected and what kind of support makes sense for you.
TCM Acupuncture
Looks at patterns across the body rather than focusing only on a symptom — considering Qi, emotions and how different signs and symptoms may be connected.
BodyTalk Energy Medicine
An energy-based approach that explores connections across the whole person — including physical and energetic systems, stress, emotions and lived experience — in a gentle, non-invasive way.
Veltheim Method Lymphatic Drainage
Combines gentle, rhythmic physical techniques with an energetic approach to support lymphatic flow and address areas of swelling, congestion and tension.
Different lenses. One whole person.
Your session may draw from one approach or more than one — along with other tools and perspectives I’ve gathered through years of training, coaching, continued learning and working with people.
The goal isn’t to fit it all into one session. It’s to have more ways to respond thoughtfully to what’s present, with you as part of the conversation.
Prefer an individual treatment?
For times when one focused approach feels like the right fit, individual treatments are also available.
TCM Acupuncture

I’ve Never Been Drawn to One Way of Doing Things
I’ve spent over 15 years working with people — and just as long staying curious about the many ways our bodies, emotions, experiences and lives can intersect.
I’m a Registered Acupuncturist, Certified BodyTalk Practitioner, and Certified Life Coach. My work has been shaped by formal training, hands-on experience, continued learning, and probably most of all, by the people I’ve had the privilege of working with along the way.
What those years have taught me is to stay curious.
To listen closely. To ask questions. To notice what may be worth looking at a little differently — and to never assume I know someone’s story simply because I recognize their symptoms.
And something I’ve come to really value is watching what can shift along the way — not just in how someone feels, but in how they understand and relate to themselves.
People become more active participants in their own care — noticing connections, understanding themselves differently, and trusting themselves more.
There’s something incredibly meaningful about seeing someone move from simply receiving care to becoming more connected to themselves and more empowered in their own well-being.
That, ultimately, is what brings me the most joy in this work.
Heart-Centered Coaching
Sometimes the next step isn’t another treatment.
Coaching offers a different kind of space to explore what’s happening in your life, where you may feel stuck, and what you want to move toward.
My approach draws from life coaching, mind-body awareness, years of working with people, and the broader perspective that has shaped my work.
This isn’t about giving you a formula for your life.
It’s a place to ask better questions, look at things from different angles, and find greater clarity around what comes next.
Currently available by consultation.
A few things you may be wondering
A personalized 75-minute session that gives me the flexibility to draw from different therapeutic approaches depending on what would be most useful for you that day.
Your session may include TCM Acupuncture, BodyTalk® Energy Medicine, Veltheim Method Lymphatic Drainage, along with other tools and perspectives I’ve gathered through years of training, coaching and working with people.
No. The goal isn’t to fit everything into one session.
We may use one approach or more than one, depending on what makes sense for your care that day.
You don’t need to know exactly what you need before you come in.
You may have a specific concern, several things going on, or simply feel that you’d like a broader approach. Integrative Care gives us the flexibility to start with what’s bringing you in and see where the session takes us.
If you already know you’d prefer Acupuncture, BodyTalk® or Lymphatic Drainage on its own, you can absolutely book that too.
My training has grown over many years and extends beyond the three main modalities you see here.
I’m a Registered Acupuncturist in good standing with the CTCMPAO, having graduated with High Honours from my acupuncture program. My TCM training also includes cupping, gua sha, moxibustion, acupressure, auricular therapy, Medical Qi Gong, Eastern nutrition and lifestyle support.
My background also includes advanced BodyTalk® and PaRama training, Veltheim Method Lymphatic Drainage, life coaching and heart-centred facilitation — along with continued learning in mind-body awareness, consciousness-based approaches, essential oils and other supportive tools.
Not everything belongs in every session. It simply gives me a broader range of tools and perspectives to draw from when appropriate.
Absolutely. Acupuncture, BodyTalk®, and Veltheim Method Lymphatic Drainage are all available as individual sessions.
If you already know what you’re looking for, you’re welcome to book that treatment directly.
Every first appointment begins with a full health intake and time to talk about what brought you in.
From there, your appointment will vary depending on what you’ve booked. Come comfortably dressed, have something light to eat beforehand, and stay well hydrated.
I’ll explain things as we go, and there’s always room for questions, preferences, or anything you’d like me to know.
You’re always part of the conversation.
Every person — and every body — is different. Some people come for short-term support around a specific concern, while others choose ongoing care as part of a deeper process of supporting their health and well-being.
We’ll create a plan together based on your goals, how you’re responding to care, and what feels supportive and sustainable for you.
Coverage depends on your individual benefits. Each service you receive is receipted separately, so you can submit eligible treatments according to your plan.
For example, if acupuncture is part of your session and your benefits include acupuncture, you’ll receive a separate acupuncture receipt for that portion of your care. Other services may also be eligible depending on your extended health benefits or Health Spending Account.
When in doubt, it’s always best to check directly with your insurance provider before booking.
