If halfway through your menstrual cycle it feels like a light switch flips in your brain — this one’s for you.
💡📉😔

Maybe that switch brings a huge drop in mood, irritability, intense anxiety, body dysmorphia, increased self-criticism, or more.

If your premenstrual symptoms are significantly impacting your quality of life or relationships, they deserve an assessment!

You may meet the criteria for Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS) or even Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD) — and you deserve to know the treatment options available to support you.

PMS isn’t just “part of being a woman.” It’s a real condition that I see frequently in practice.

Don’t get me wrong. There are many causes of irregular periods. Which means lots for us to investigate together! But when a patient comes to me suffering with irregular periods, looking at their thyroid health is always on my list.

Irregular periods can be anxiety provoking, isolating, and very uncomfortable! Don’t suffer alone, let’s get this figured out together.

You know the face. That half smile, half grimace 😬 that you paste on to try to make it look like you’re having fun, when really you’re suffering. Or maybe just trying not to clear the room?

Digestive concerns are more than just the symptoms! They impact your mood, your confidence, your relationship and enjoyment of food, and a lot of time, your ability to enjoy day to day activities.

This impact to your quality of life is JUST as important as the symptoms themselves. Which is why, when working together, we aim to rectify both.

Exciting news! On Thursday I had the honour of graduating with my Doctor of Naturopathy Degree alongside some of my closest friends and family members.

So what does this mean for patient care? Unfortunately my academic journey is not over QUITE yet. For the next 4 months I will have my nose in the books as I complete my licensing exams. Once completed I will finally be able to offer patient care to those of you who I know have been so patiently waiting.

In the meantime, I will be launching my website within the next few weeks, through which you may join the email and waitlist for updates and notifications! You can also stay tuned on this page for more updates and interesting health content.

Hang tight! I look forward to providing you the healthcare you deserve very soon. 👩🏼‍🎓🩺🌿
