Our mission is to help relieve pain, suffering, and imbalance by supporting the healing of the body, mind, emotions, and spirit. I have dedicated my life to the study and practice of natural medicine, with the intention of helping people move from discomfort, confusion, and illness toward greater balance, clarity, vitality, and peace.

Through Chinese medicine, acupuncture, herbal medicine, bodywork, diet therapy, medical qigong, and energetic healing practices, I work to support each person as a whole being — not merely a collection of symptoms.

My Personal Journey

I have been interested in natural healing for more than 45 years. My path into alternative medicine was deeply personal. After losing my mother to cancer, I realized that Western medicine, while valuable, was not always enough to address the deeper needs of the human being. Her passing inspired me to seek a broader, more holistic way to help people.

That experience became the foundation of my life’s work. I vowed to study medicine in a way that honored the physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual dimensions of healing. This calling eventually led me to enroll in Chinese medicine school and dedicate my life to helping others through natural and energetic medicine.

Over the years, my work has continued to evolve. After decades of clinical experience, I have come to understand that many physical conditions are connected to deeper layers of stress, trauma, emotional pain, spiritual disconnection, or unresolved life experiences. My approach is rooted in listening deeply, assessing the whole person, and helping restore balance on multiple levels.

Education & Training

I graduated in 1998 from the Colorado School of Traditional Chinese Medicine, where I received formal training in acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine, diagnosis, and traditional therapeutic methods.

In addition to my formal education, I have continued my training through long-term apprenticeships with master practitioners and healers.

Apprenticeship with Li Xin Zhang

I completed a three-year apprenticeship with Li Xin Zhang, a 10th-generation master acupuncturist. Through this apprenticeship, I received specialized training in treating complex neurological conditions, including brain trauma and stroke recovery.

Apprenticeship with Andy Maygutiak

For more than 20 years, I have continued an ongoing apprenticeship with Andy Maygutiak, a master herbalist in Chinese medicine. His work emphasizes advanced diagnostic skills and the art of precise herbal formulation.

Medical Qigong Apprenticeship with Jon Cheverrie

Since 2005, I have studied medical qigong with qigong master Jon Cheverrie. This training includes an advanced ancient system of Tibetan healing designed to support the body, mind, and soul.
