My practice focus is in hormones and weight loss, pregnancy/postpartum, fertility, menopause and graceful aging.
I am trained in acupuncture, auricular (ear) acupuncture, IV vitamin therapy & Bowen therapy and like to include these physical therapies along with nutritional counselling, herbs and supplements to bring your body back into balance. I practice evidence informed medicine, so your care is based on scientific research, my clinical experience and your own data and labs.

I graduated from the Canadian Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine (Calgary) and the Mian Yang Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine (China) in 2010. Since then, I have been practicing in the beautiful city of Calgary, Alberta, Canada.
Over the years, I have enjoyed treating a wide range of health concerns, including pain, digestive health, mental health, and ADHD/nervous system regulation.
Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine are exceptional for regulating the menstrual cycle, and I am passionate about helping women and menstruating people find natural ways to achieve balance. From puberty to menopause, TCM has a rich history of treating menstrual health, and it is one of my favorite areas to work in. So I am thrilled to be joining Naturally Balanced and the other practitioners who also enjoy helping menstruating folx naturally balance their cycles.
Additionally, I am dedicated to supporting individuals in transition, offering care for those experiencing gender dysphoria, preparing for surgery, and aiding in post-surgery recovery.
I grew up here in Calgary, spending most of my youth in the country with my horses or hiking in our beautiful mountains. Though I don’t currently have horses, you can often find me hiking in the mountains, enjoying music or theater events with my partner, or playing RPGs or hanging out with friends.
I am thrilled to be part of the incredible team at Naturally Balanced Therapies, a safe and inclusive clinic.
If you’re wondering if acupuncture can help you, I would be delighted to schedule a 15-minute meet and greet to discuss your needs.

As a former competitive dancer, I’m all too familiar with injuries and how effective massage therapy can be in the recovery process. My goal is to identify underlying patterns such as muscle imbalances, postural changes and movement dysfunctions that lead to pain-tension cycles, and subsequently create an individualized treatment plan to address clients’ concerns. Influenced by my years of training and passion for exercise, I believe that movement is often the right medicine for combating aches and pains. In my spare time you can find me in the mountains hiking, backpacking, paddle boarding, snowboarding, and camping and spending time with my partner and dog.
