Midwives aren't just for pregnant people and can be any person that helps another bring something into being or assists in its development. Good health in my opinion is our first and best way to a full life and can look different for each person. Whether you have good health or are struggling with changes or challenges, an individualized and creative approach is fundamental to achieve your definition of health and balance.
As a Certified Nurse-Midwife, my career has evolved over the years transitioning from the role of “baby catcher” into a provider who assists women in all stages of life with their health goals using tools from a healing spectrum that includes conventional western medicine approaches, to herbal and functional perspectives.
Each step of my career has been lead by an enduring desire to provide knowledge on a spectrum of health care options that give the power and control to individual woman honoring her capacity to chose her own best, right way to manage her health and life. This has led me to life-long study of ancient, traditional, conventional and emerging sciences, including Aviva's Functional and Integrative Medicine Professional Training Program. I see my role as a provider of accurate and safe information based on all available forms of evidence. Please come see me for full-spectrum women's health and primary care with an integrative approach covered by most insurance plans in New Mexico.
I offer annual exams, pap smears, conventional and integrative labs, imaging orders including mammograms and colon cancer screenings, hormone-related issues from menstrual challenges, fertility concerns to perimenopause, hormone replacement therapy, mental health support, laboratory interpretations, supplement and herbal support for many common and atypical issues and much more, all with an individualized and creative approach.
