Individualized weight management and intensive lifestyle interventions. I am a Naturopathic Doctor located in Vancouver and Whistler B.C.

I TREAT OBESITY AS A MEDICAL CONDITION, NOT A CHOICE

What if weight loss was more about biology rather than “will-power?”

“Eat less & exercise more” approaches don’t work. Let’s talk about what does work?

GET STARTED

A Personalized Approach. What’s your Unique Story?

Step 1 - Listen

Assessment begins with understanding where you are coming from. What is your current state of health, and how did you get there? What treatments have you tried? Do you take medications that cause weight gain? What does health mean to you? A successful plan starts with listening, not ‘teaching and telling’.

Step 2 - Collaborate

You are at the centre of the treatment process so that you feel empowered and ready for challenges that lie ahead. Lifestyle behaviour change doesn’t happen by doctors telling telling you what to do, they work through establishing trust and building an alliance toward shared treatment goals. I provide information and treatment options - you lead the way.

Step 3 - Support

I offer unhurried, one-on-one visits over time to individualize therapy and support long term success. If you are living with overweight or obesity, there are certain unavoidable challenges that make change hard. I take an approach that accepts these realities in order to effectively cope with them and reach your goals.
