My heart-centered, multi-modal, integrated and balanced approach to pain, stress, and sleep management accesses each individual’s unique needs, situations and desires in restoring health to an optimal, restful, peaceful, comfortable and fulfilling existence. Using my Western medicine pharmacist training and unique set of modalities these goals can be accomplished while minimizing, and potentially eliminating, the need for pharmaceuticals that are frequently prescribed to address these common issues.
I work as both as a pharmacist and a TCM-trained acupuncturist and Chinese medicinal herbalist. I have taught and initiated many students in the Unlimited Usui Reiki lineage since her own Reiki certification in 2008, the same year she studied with Mikio Sankey in Esoteric Acupuncture. In 2003 she became a certified Colorpuncture practitioner and has utilized many basic concepts and knowledge from this certification in her current treatments, workshops and meditations.
As a post-doctoral Fellow at the Weil School of Integrative Medicine at the University of Arizona I strive to both broaden and deepen my integrative medicine knowledge as a pharmacist into greatest and most balanced service for her patients and clients.

Medication therapy management (MTM) is a distinct service or group of services provided by pharmacists, to ensure the best therapeutic outcomes for patients. MTM includes five core elements: Comprehensive medication therapy review, a personal medication record, a medication-related action plan, intervention or referral, and documentation and follow-up through Target Medication Reviews.
MTM can be focused on managing all medications, supplements, and herbs, or for target areas including pain management, mental wellness, or any other health concerns.
Pharmacist Services are available for both patients per service and providers and practices per contracted hours.
What to expect:
Prior to your appointment you will complete a comprehensive health history, including a list of all medications, supplements, herbal products, nutrition, and more. During the scheduled appointment we will discuss the medications, your goals, and create an action plan for follow-up. Your provider(s) and prescriber(s) will receive a letter with the recommendations that will optimize outcomes with your medications. You will leave the appointment with a Recommendations, an Action Plan, and an Updated Medication List, all of which will be shared with your provider(s), at your request.
Service Fee includes the appointment, research and communication follow-up with providers.
If an Action Plan is developed for any recommended changes, a Targeted Medication Review will be scheduled as necessary.

A quick question does not involve specific patient data unless it is in reference for an established patient.
Some typical Quick Questions look like:
“What are some evidence-based herbal remedies to help boost my immune system?”
“Is ashwaganda safe to take with Zolpidem?”
“What are the integrative medicine recommendations to help through a COVID19 infection?”
For more in-depth and patient-specific questions, a comprehensive (and targeted) medication review is more appropriate.
