For as long as I can remember, I have been fascinated by sickness and healing. By the time I was in college, I knew that I would study medicine, and that it would be only the beginning of my training. While I pursued western medical training, I also studied (formally and informally) Reiki, Body Talk, other forms of energy medicine, homeopathy, herbs, nutrition, hypnotherapy, and various other alternative and integrative approaches to healing.

Traditional Osteopathy forms the foundation of my approach. The central tenet of Osteopathy is that we all have an intelligent and powerful healing system within us. My main goal is to synchronize with this healing system, understand its challenges and priorities, and assist it in its work. As the founder of Osteopathy famously said, “The object of a physician should be to find the health. Anyone can find the disease.” I do so by listening to people – their stories, their wisdom, and their bodies.

I see people at all ages and stages of health. I use whatever combination of western and integrative medicine is appropriate for them. My goal is to meet people on their healing journey and help them to live life to their fullest potential. Current areas of focus are medical cannabis, children with neurological problems, tick related illness, chronic complex illness of various etiologies, and those who have failed conventional therapy or fallen through the cracks of the medical system.

I live with my husband Dr. Dustin Sulak and our three children.
