APOTHEOSIS MEDICINE
Your body already knows the way back.
I help you hear it.
This is a practice built around close attention — to patterns, to seasons, to what symptoms are actually saying. Using Classical Chinese Medicine and Western herbal and nutritional medicine, I look for the root, not just the branch. Two people with the same diagnosis may need entirely different care.
The clinical work is one part of what happens here. Underneath every symptom is a story — the way a person narrates their experience, relates to their body, and moves through change. What I have learned, from decades of practice and from teachers who passed this down to me, is that awareness is medicine. The herbs help. The presence is the point.
Most people arrive here because something isn't working —
— in the body, in life, or in the way the two are relating to each other. Often they've tried other approaches. Often they've been told the problem is smaller or simpler than it feels.
The starting place here is always inquiry — shared, unhurried, and specific to you. Life moves. Seasons change. What the body needs in one year is not what it needs in the next. The relationships I build are designed to move with you — close attention when it's needed, a lighter hand as things settle, and always the thread of continuity that knows where you've been.
There are two ways into this practice. One is clinical. One is about learning to live more consciously within your own life. Both are complete offerings. Both can lead somewhere longer.
TWO WAYS IN
CLINICAL ENTRY
Taking Stock
Something isn't right, and you want to understand what's actually happening — not just manage it. Taking Stock is where we begin.
An extended opening session — unhurried, wide-ranging, clinically grounded. We take stock of where you are: your history, your patterns, what's been tried, what the body is doing and why. Herbal, nutritional and lifestyle recommendations follow within a week. Two follow-up sessions track how you're responding and give us room to adjust.
By the end of Taking Stock, we'll know together what kind of ongoing support, if any, makes sense.
$400 · 75-minute opening session + two 30-minute follow-ups · In-person or telehealth
ACCOMPANIMENT ENTRY
Digest Life
For people who are not primarily seeking clinical resolution, but to a more conscious way of inhabiting their lives — learning to observe themselves with curiosity, to move with change rather than against it, to understand what the body is saying before it has to shout.
We meet within the rhythm of the seasons, tracking what's present and developing practices that support a new way of being.
Digest Life is available to people who have worked with me clinically or attended a retreat and want ongoing integration. It is also open to those who are simply drawn to this way of seeing and want a guide.
$675 · three sessions over one season (three months) · renewable each season. Herb & nutrition consults available for a reduced fee.
Ongoing Care
After Taking Stock or a season of Digest Life, continuing care takes whatever shape the relationship calls for. I don't offer fixed programs — I offer continuing attention, calibrated to where you actually are.

Active ongoing care For people navigating complexity — a shifting condition, a significant transition, a pattern needing sustained attention. We meet regularly at a frequency that fits the clinical picture. Between-visit support is included. Most people move into lighter contact as the work settles.
Long-term stewardship For people who have found their footing and want to stay in relationship with their health over time. Two substantive visits a year, timed to seasonal turns, with access to support when something acute arises. This is the long relationship — the one that holds your history and is there when something shifts.
