"Only the wounded physician heals" Carl Jung
Motivated by my own health challenges, and realizing that conventional medicine had nothing to truly help me with my chronic complaints, I initially began dabbling a great deal in natural health in the early 2000s, via self-care/self-study as my health was plummeting. In addition, my medical doctor verbalized to me at one point when I was in my early 30s, concern that he couldn't help me (my reactions to medications seemed to worry him regarding prescribing to me), and recommended that I move to a different climate (Southern CA or Arizona).
At that time, I had frequent migraines, irritable bowel syndrome (resulting in severe weight loss), muscle pain, significant reactions to medications (and even some herbal formulas), frequent acute infections (mostly sinus-related), and eventually was diagnosed with fibromyalgia/chronic fatigue syndrome. I began frequenting local health food stores, devouring books about natural healthcare, and trying various supplements and remedies on my own as a lay-person. During this time, I met and worked with a naturopathic student who helped me to learn as well. Eventually, I realized that this passion for holistic healing seemed to be calling me to my "vocation" (from Latin "vocare" meaning, "to call")...my calling to help others in whatever capacity that I can.
I decided to continue my education by studying Naturopathy, Herbal medicine, and Homeopathy in formal educational settings. I studied Naturopathy from 2009-2012 (ND diploma in traditional/classical Naturopathy), and took the 6- hour, proctored, board certification exam in Naturopathy in 2013 (BCND), via The American Naturopathic Medical Certification Board.
I started Holistic Harmony Natural Health Counseling, LLC in 2013, as a part-time Holistic Health practice, choosing to specialize in homeopathy due to it helping me significantly with my own health challenges.
I had started studying homeopathy on a semi-formal basis in 2009, while attending a small homeopathy class held by a local homeopath, who also became my first homeopath and mentor. For the next 5 years, from 2009-2014, while also enrolled in Naturopathy school for part of that time, I helped her with the students (enrollment, teaching acute -care classes, and follow-ups). Since I wanted an accredited program of study to add to my credentials and to give me a more systematic education in the field, I enrolled in the 4- year, accredited, clinical program at Homeopathy School International in 2015. The education and program there is quite rigorous and very thorough. I finished the program in 2019 (CHom) and the Advanced Clinical program in the spring of 2020, just in time for the pandemic to thwart my intended move to a brick and mortar office. My education included typical college level and post-graduate level health science courses (Chemistry, Biology, Anatomy, Physiology, Pathology, etc), as well as courses in everything pertaining to Naturopathic philosophy and education and eventually Homeopathic philosophy and education.
I was blessed to have studied with some of the best Homeopaths, Naturopaths, and Medical Doctors in the Alternative/Holistic Health community, including direct contact study hours with Dr. Will Taylor, MD, Dr. Robin Murphy, ND, Dr. Andre Saine, ND, and many others throughout my multi- year, formal educational journey in Naturopathic and Homeopathic formal education.
At this time in my life, although there have been many stresses in the last 4 years, my health has improved greatly since those early days when I was seeking help through my own reading and education. I am so grateful not to be on any medications, and to seemingly be in better health than many much younger people around me, especially when one considers from where I have come with my health.
Prior to, and during the final few years of continuing my education in the natural health realm, I also taught all levels of education, as well as all subjects (using curricula that I designed based on the Trivium/classical method of education) from K-12 for 14 years to my, now-adult offspring, (the eldest of whom graduated summa cum laude, 4th in her class from law school in 2019, and the youngest graduated from Colorado State University in 2018).
In my free time, I am an avid reader of most genres of fiction and also of non-fiction, especially in the scientific realm, averaging 30-60 books read each year. I also enjoy journaling, scrapbooking and writing. My husband and I love and appreciate nature, and taking long walks in our woods, as well as traveling to the coast of Maine in the fall, and playing with our 2 adorable grandchildren.

"....who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God".

"The highest degree of medicine is love". Paracelsus
"I believe what prevents men from accepting the homeopathic principles is ignorance, but ignorance is criminal when human lives are at stake. No honest man faced with the facts of homeopathy can refuse to accept it. He has no choice. When I had to face it I had to become a follower. There was no choice if I were to continue to be an honest man....Truth always demands adherence and offers no alternative."
