HORMONE BALANCE PROGRAM

Hi, I'm Dr. Kathleen, ND

I help women balance and optimize their hormones, mood and energy using the best of modern and natural medicine.

My Approach 

Women deserve more than band-aid solutions to their hormone concerns.

Hormones influence virtually every aspect of a woman's being.  Your mood, energy, sleep, drive and ability focus require balanced hormones for optimal performance. 


In order for you to truly understand what is going on with your health and hormones, you need more than the average 15.7 minute doctor appointment.


I help women understand the root cause of their hormone imbalance concerns by examining and treating the Pillars of Hormone Health: 

Diet & Nutrition


Digestion


Thyroid & Metabolism


Stress Resilience


Liver & Detox


Lifestyle & Environment


My Journey...

I know exactly how bewildering and frustrating it is to feel like you are at the mercy of your hormones.


I spent years as a patient navigating my own hormone health concerns, going from one specialist to the next, trying to get answers to why I felt the way I did. 


Being offered the birth control pill as a "solution" didn't feel like the answer I was looking for.


It wasn't until I stumbled across Naturopathic Medicine that the pieces finally fell into place and I was able to take back control of my health and hormones. 


My background...

Growing up as an athlete in North Vancouver, I've always been fascinated by the human body. I never cease to be amazed by the ability of the body to grow, change, build up and break down.


Coming from a family of medical professionals, I gravitated towards the healthcare field and studied Exercise Science at Capilano College and then Physical Health and Education at the University of Toronto.


As a varsity athlete for both my college and university varsity volleyball teams, I experienced the transformation that occurs with dedicated high-performance training.  


I also experienced the deep impact of stress and burnout on my hormone health.


Why Naturopathic Medicine... 


Finally, I arrived in the office of a Naturopathic Doctor as a last attempt to understand my hormone concerns.


She spent over an hour with me, asking not only about my physical symptoms, but about my sleep, diet, digestion and how my body and mind manage stress.


She was the first practitioner who connected the dots between my symptoms and laid out a clear path forward.


15 years later, now I have the privilege of guiding women to optimal health, drawing from my background in science and training in natural medicine.
