Hi, I’m Heather. I’m a state licensed acupuncturist and Chinese medicine practitioner as well as a certified yoga instructor. I received a Doctorate of Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine with a focus on integrative medicine from the American College of Traditional Chinese Medicine in San Francisco, California. My practice is located near downtown San Rafael in beautiful Marin county.

I am deeply appreciative of the profound beauty of Chinese medicine and how its principles connect our human experience to the seasons and elements of nature. I was initially drawn to this medicine because of its holistic approach to health, its understanding that emotions play a vital role in our wellness and the perspective that each human body is both unique and complex. I believe that the body, mind and spirit are all connected creating an individualized ecosystem and that bothersome symptoms are showing us an imbalance in that system. The good news is that we each have the capacity to heal within us. Acupuncture and Chinese medicine help to activate the natural healing resources already present in our bodies to restore balance.

I strongly believe that everyone deserves to feel good and live with vitality. I am here to support your healing process with compassion and empathy. I provide the space to be heard, offer services that initiate healing and encourage you to take an active role in your journey to optimal health. Whether it be through acupuncture, massage, lifestyle recommendations, movement practices or a combination of all of these, I work closely with each patient to create a treatment plan that works best for their personal health goals.

When I’m not in clinic, I enjoy hiking, yoga, traveling, thrift and antique shopping, cooking without a recipe and diving into a good book. I’m a wife and mom and love spending time with my family whether it’s going on a new adventure or curling up to watch a movie together. I feel most at peace in nature and am continually hoping to spend more time in the trees or at the beach.
