Integrative Pediatric Care: A Parent’s Guide to Whole-Child Wellness
At its heart, integrative pediatric care means I see your child as a whole person - not just a set of symptoms or diagnoses. My goal is to create a collaborative, empowering approach that supports the body’s natural ability to heal by strengthening the key foundations of health:
Nutrition
Movement
Sleep
Environment
Community
Resilience
Spirituality + Purpose
When we focus on these areas, children often experience meaningful improvements in common concerns like frequent illness, food sensitivities, digestive challenges, behavioral or sensory struggles, sleep issues, and mood. And this isn’t just about the present - it’s about building a strong foundation that helps prevent the chronic diseases increasingly affecting both kids and adults, like diabetes, obesity, heart disease, and certain cancers.
This isn’t a band-aid approach. It’s a deeper dive into your child’s unique story - one that honors your intuition as a parent and includes your child in the process, too.
What to Expect When Working With Me
A Full Picture of Your Child
I take the time to understand your child’s health history, daily rhythms, and personality. This helps me create an individualized wellness plan - or as I like to say, their personal “recipe for thriving.”
Food as Medicine
Nutrition impacts everything from digestion to mood. Together we’ll explore kid-friendly food swaps, ways to reduce inflammation, support the microbiome, and build healthy, lifelong habits.
Root-Cause Clarity
I don’t just treat symptoms - I ask why. Using functional and lab testing when appropriate, I connect the dots to uncover what’s really going on and how to best support long-term healing.
Modalities That Make Sense
I combine the best of science-backed integrative medicine - Western tools, Eastern wisdom, mind-body practices, nutrition, and lifestyle coaching. This isn’t one-size-fits-all care; it’s curated support for your family.
A True Wellness Ally
While I don’t provide primary care services, I partner closely with your pediatrician and other providers to ensure your child’s care is aligned and well-rounded. You’ll also have ongoing support, regular check-ins, and space to celebrate progress together.
Resources You Can Actually Use
From supplement recommendations and sleep strategies to mindfulness practices and environmental detox tips, I provide tools that are practical, actionable, and aligned with your family’s values.
My ultimate goal is to empower you with the knowledge and confidence to support your child’s health - while keeping the process light, fun, and joyful. Because when kids feel good in their bodies, they shine. And when parents feel supported, everything changes.
This is integrative pediatric care with heart.
This is care that grows with your family.
