HEALING BENEATH THE SURFACE

​

Welcome to Wild Woman Wellness, a concierge medical practice where transformation begins with you. As a Board-Certified Family Physician with over three decades of experience, my mission is to guide you toward a life of vitality, confidence, and empowerment. True health isn’t just the absence of illness—it’s a dynamic, ongoing journey of self-discovery, healing, and transformation.

​

The Wild Woman

Early in my medical career, I first encountered the Wild Woman Archetype, as beautifully explored by Clarissa Pinkola Estés in Women Who Run With the Wolves. Even during the most “tame” and docile phases of my life, something about the Wild Woman resonated deeply. She touched a rawness within me that I wasn’t ready to fully embrace—but she never left.

​

The journey to rediscover her is what led me here today.

​

The Wild Woman Archetype represents the instinctual, creative, and untamed essence of the feminine soul that lives within all of us—regardless of gender, sex, or culture. She is the embodiment of wisdom, vitality, and freedom. Reconnecting with her means reclaiming the fragmented, wounded, messy, and beautiful parts of ourselves and honoring the full spectrum of human emotion without fear.

Through this reclamation process, we learn to trust our body’s innate wisdom, listen to our inner voice, and honor our instinctual sense of safety. It’s about living in alignment with our truest selves, in full integrity. This level of authenticity is possible for everyone willing to open themselves to the call of the Wild Woman—and it’s at the heart of my work.

​

My Approach

At Wild Woman Wellness, I combine the best of modern medicine with a holistic understanding of mind, body, and spirit. My practice is deeply rooted in the principles of integrative and functional medicine, focusing on pivotal life transitions like illness, grief, aging, intimacy/sexuality shifts, healing, and other transformative phases. I aim to help you reclaim your inner wildness, align with your authentic self, and navigate these changes with clarity and confidence, by bringing together the medical physician with the wild woman healer at your service.

 

I bring extensive training and experience to this work, including:

​

• Board Certification in Family Medicine since 1996

• Certification in Functional Medicine (IFM), 2015

• Certified Menopause Provider (The Menopause Society), 2024

• Specialized training & learning: trauma, somatics, plant medicine, sound and vibration healing, shamanism, and meditation

• Expertise as a consent and sex educator and trauma-aware group facilitator

• Kink-informed and adjacent, Ethically Non-Monogamous 

• National speaker on The STARS Talk and DeSTIgmatize STIs. 

​

The STARS Talk

As the creator of The STARS Talk framework, I’ve dedicated much of my career to fostering open, compassionate communication about health, sexuality, and relationships. My work has been featured in TEDx, NPR LifeKit, and numerous publications, and I now bring the same commitment to this practice.

A Space to Create Your Own Story

This is more than a medical practice—it’s a sanctuary for transformation. Here, your story matters. Together, we’ll explore the themes of loss, renewal, and empowerment as we navigate life’s challenges. You can step into your next chapter with resilience, purpose, and authenticity with the right tools and support.

The Wild Woman Archetype reminds us that true healing comes from reconnecting with our inner selves, celebrating intuition, and reclaiming our voice and truth. It’s an invitation to live boldly, fiercely, and unapologetically as your true self. Through a deep understanding of the physiological, medical, and biological, through a somatic and trauma-aware lens, we can begin to write the next chapter of your whole life. 

​

Transforming Together

Transformation isn’t just a goal—it’s the foundation of everything I do. Whether you’re navigating hormonal shifts, seeking to improve your sexual health, or addressing chronic health challenges, I am here to listen deeply, honor your choices, and co-create a personalized plan tailored to your unique needs.

​

Let’s embark on this transformational journey together.
