Who We Are 

I am a graduate of Bastyr University, Seattle, Washington who specializes in pediatrics, gender affirming care for youth, and autism evaluations.  

 

After practicing naturopathic medicine and midwifery in Minnesota for two years, I decided to return to the Seattle area. I opened Moonrise Health and Birth in September of 2006 while five months pregnant with my first born. Raising a child and starting a new practice was challenging, but I seemed to find balance between the two! I also served as adjunct faculty at Bastyr University teaching classes such as Clinical Laboratory Diagnosis, Normal Maternity, and Prenatal Complications.

​​

I love what I do. I feel very passionate about naturopathic medicine and midwifery. I feel very strongly that people should have choices in their health care and that they should be given the correct information to make those choices. 

​

In my practice I draw on my education, personal experience, and experience gained from others to provide you with the most up-to-date and accurate information. If I don't know the answers, I will do my absolute best find them.
