Such a beautiful day spent with my favourite people. Congratulations Meg & Phil! We love you so much 🤍

Body weight changes despite not changing anything noticeable in routine are one of the top 3 reasons why perimenopausal women come to my practice. Looking into other underlying reasons for weight gain, making specific and intentional lifestyle shifts and holding these lovely ladies accountable are some ways that I’ll address it 💪🏽✨

A little delayed but happy to share that I’m now a Menopause Society Certified Practitioner 🚺✨

Naturopathic doctors in Ontario are able to prescribe bioidentical, transdermal estrogen and progesterone to patients who may qualify. This is one potential part of care for women in perimenopause & menopause that has a lot more benefits than you might be aware of!

Curious about hormone therapy? Unsure if it would help you? Seeing a naturopathic doctor can help you navigate whether it’s the best course of action, by helping you delve deeper into your body as a whole to determine what needs attention, helping you spot trends early-on to ensure you’re focusing on prevention and optimizing health over the lifespan, and helping you separate fact from fiction with regards to hormones and health trends.

Mental health and physical health can’t be separated. Taking care of both is the key to feeling better. You got this 💖

Starting the work week after a long weekend can feel stressful. Here’s your reminder not to hold that stress in your body!

I’m not saying you have to get rid of everything that brings you joy, but if you’re not ready to part with the habits that are making you unwell, you probably won’t get better.

You might not be ready. And that’s completely ok! We all move through our healing journey at different paces and take different paths. Step one is recognizing that whatever it is, no longer serves you.

Reflect. Look inward and evaluate the things in your control that don’t align with the person you want to be. ✨
