The Process
Naturopathic Medicine is different than other healthcare you have received in the past. It is a process.
It allows us to work towards creating sustainable, lasting change that benefits you not only right now, but also years in the future.
Sounds amazing, right? It is, but it requires commitment from you. For most patients, we will work together regularly for 6 months to a year, and then check in periodically after that to ensure things are still on track.
If your first thought was that this is too big of a commitment, consider that you are worth it.
Make this commitment to yourself and get started today.
Discovery Call
Discovery Calls are complementary 15-minute Appointments where we will meet and get a broad overview of your health goals and concerns. If we are a good fit, we will book you in for your Intake Appointment. If I believe you would be better served by a different practitioner, I will provide you with some guidance on where to go next.
*There is no medical advice provided in this appointment.
Initial Assessment
We will spend time understanding your experience with your symptoms, your health history, and your health goals for yourself. We will begin to build an understanding of the processes behind your current symptom picture, which will help us understand how best to support you.
Preliminary Treatment Plan
Within a week of your Initial Appointment, we will meet for a 15-minute appointment to review the preliminary treatment plan that I create. Using your feedback, we will make necessary adjustments to ensure you understand and feel confident in your plan.
This plan is preliminary, as it will likely involve some testing and tracking to get a clear picture of your health concerns, allowing for an individualized treatment plan.​
Individualized Treatment Plan
Once we receive your test results and tracking, we will meet to review your individualized treatment plan. Now it is time to get started on working towards your health goals!​
Active Phase of Care
This is where the work comes in. With my support, you will execute your treatment plan. We will meet periodically throughout this process to do the following:
-
Discuss treatment plan pain-points and strategize how to resolve them
-
Assess progress towards health goals
-
Provide accountability and motivation
-
Make necessary adjustments to your treatment plan
Ongoing Wellness Support
Once we get healthy, we need to constantly work to stay healthy. It really is about the journey rather than the destination.
​
In this phase of care, we will meet periodically to reassess and redefine your health goals. As you transition through different phases of your life, your health goals, priorities, and resources will change - which means we will need to make some tweaks to your plan to keep you feeling your absolute best.
