Information

As an integrative Doctor of Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine, it’s normal for me to use language that feels esoteric; you’ll encounter terms such as “spirit” with some frequency. Think of this in whatever way makes you most comfortable. Those who practice a faith tradition have their own idea of what spirit means. Atheists or agnostics might think of consciousness, or life force, that ineffable quality that moves something from not-alive to alive. And so on. There is space for all of us in this tent, and together we can muddle through our diverse understandings of the nature of existence.

I practice Classical and Traditional Chinese Medicine as a cis-gendered white woman in the United States. My content and references will come from within my training and lived understanding, and will not encompass all possible human experiences. I welcome all visitors with the deepest humility regarding my limitations. Please extend me grace if I miss the mark from your unique vantage point, as each of us can only see the landscape of the universe from where we stand.
