My journey:
In 1994, at the age of 17, I was diagnosed with SLE (Lupus).
At the time I was experiencing the myriad of symptoms that
accompany a Lupus diagnosis. These symptoms were treated with
pharmaceuticals and I never thought twice about the ramifications
of using such harsh drugs on my body. In my second year of
university, my dependence on NSAID’s and other suppressive
type drugs caught up to me as I got sicker than I had ever
been. I knew that there had to be another answer. Enter the
gentle, yet effective world of homeopathy. Since then, I have
used this brilliant medicine to successfully treat and heal
myself. Many of my symptoms no longer exist and the ones that
do, are well controlled. Homeopathy has drastically changed
my life and has subsequently created an inner longing to share
this amazing healing art with others.
My Education and Credentials:
I received my Honours Bachelor Degree in Psychology at the
University of Guelph before graduating from the intensive
3 year course at the Toronto School of Homeopathic Medicine.
Throughout the three years of study I attained a solid understanding
of the basic medical sciences including anatomy, physiology,
pathology, drug interactions, nutrition and physical examination.
My homeopathic medicine training was vast and included such
items as homeopathic philosophy and therapeutics. Counseling
skills were strongly encouraged to develop through the hundreds
of hours of supervised clinical practice.
