Welcome! I am Carolyn.
I specialize in guiding individuals who feel mentally and physically overwhelmed through a compassionate and deeply personalized healing journey.
Whether you're managing a medical diagnosis, specific symptoms, or simply feeling off balance, the path I offer is a roadmap to rediscovering your true self and achieving a sense of well-being.
Using acupuncture, flower essences, and other integrative modalities, I work with you to help your body and mind shift their responses to life’s challenges. Together, we’ll create a healing plan that supports your unique needs and empowers you to reach your health goals.
It Takes A Lot of Courage to Try Something New
Taking the step to try acupuncture is an act of courage, and I honor that.
Acupuncture is a comprehensive and powerful healing system that can address a broad range of symptoms and conditions. However, just like modern Western medicine, it’s not a one-size-fits-all solution. There are many different styles, approaches, and modalities within Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), each of which may be more suitable for different individuals and concerns.
For much of the last 10 years, I have focused my studies and practice on acupuncture styles that are particularly effective in treating:
- Emotional and Mental Health
- Nervous System Disorders
- Chronic & Systemic Symptoms
Throughout my years of experience, I have had the privilege of working with individuals facing a wide variety of symptoms and diagnoses. Together, we focus on finding a new path forward—helping the body restore balance, ease discomfort, and promote overall well-being.
Some of the conditions I have worked with include, but are not limited to:
- Anxiety
- Depression
- Perinatal Mood Disorders
- PTSD & cPTSD
- Bipolar Disorder
- Eating Disorders
- Parkinson’s Disease
- Essential Tremors
- Multiple Sclerosis
- Dementia
- Long COVID
- Multiple Auto-Immune Syndrome
- And many more
How do we work together?
I believe that healing is a unique, individualized journey, and I am here to meet you where you are at. When you walk through the door, know that your treatment will be crafted specifically for you—there’s no one-size-fits-all approach. I take the time before each session to discuss your current concerns, any symptoms you may be experiencing, and how things are going in your life. Based on our conversation, I’ll design a treatment plan that reflects your needs in that moment, ensuring that every session is as effective and supportive as possible.
Acupuncture is cumulative and most people benefit from more frequent sessions, particularly at the start of treatment. While the ideal interval between sessions can vary from person to person, I typically begin by recommending weekly sessions when addressing acute symptoms. As your symptoms improve, we’ll adjust the frequency to best suit your progress and goals. I understand that life can be busy, and I’ll always work with you to create a treatment plan that fits your lifestyle while optimizing your healing journey.
Together, we’ll build a path to better health—one that’s as flexible and unique as you are.
Get Started!
Your initial session is a 2-hour experience designed to lay the foundation for your healing journey. The first hour is dedicated to getting to know each other—an in-depth conversation about your concerns, your health history, and your unique needs. This is an opportunity for us to connect and understand you as a whole person, not just a set of symptoms.
In the second hour, we’ll begin your first acupuncture session. This is typically more gentle and focused on providing you with some immediate relief while also understanding how your body responds to acupuncture and other modalities. It’s an important step in understanding how we can work together to support your long-term health and well-being.
