Who I See
So, you’re ready for change?
You want to work on a nagging health issue, feel like yourself again, lean into the positive and enjoy…life.
I work best with people who are curious about their bodies, open to Traditional East Asian Medicine and Herbal Medicine, and who are ready to invest in their health over time.
This is not a quick fix.
This is not sterile, protocol-based care.
This is not about pushing through.
This is a personal, truly holistic approach to your health, to help alleviate your pain, help you to feel emotionally rooted, and bring you back into balance.
When you work with me, you can expect:
- A calm, grounded space where you do not have to explain or justify everything
- Acupuncture that is effective and custom tailored to you
- Solid herbal formulas and nutrition counseling that fit your current needs and constitution
- An ally on your journey to recover your health
- A practitioner that really sees you-and wants to help you feel whole again.
I founded Coyote Herbs & Acupuncture because I truly believe that acupuncture is great way for every person to support their health. To that end, I welcome all ages and people.
