Marisa's story

When Marisa first reached out, she was dealing with chronic pain, inflammation, and exhaustion. We worked together remotely from San Francisco using Chinese herbal medicine, coaching, and regular follow-up over several months.

Three months later, she describes the difference in her own words.

My approach

I start by listening to what is happening and what you would most like help with. We look at your symptoms, your health history, the care you are already receiving, and how all of this is affecting your life.

I also pay attention to how you are carrying the experience. Pain, illness, and sustained pressure can make it difficult to settle, even when you have time to rest. My work draws on an understanding of the nervous system, meditation, and mindfulness to help you recognize patterns in your thoughts and reactions and find more room to respond. There is space for whatever you are feeling.

From there, we decide what may be useful: acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine, mindfulness, coaching, or a combination. We pay attention to how you respond and adjust as we go. When your care calls for it, I coordinate with your medical team.

Why I Do This Work

For years I experienced symptoms that no one could fully explain.

Eventually I was diagnosed with constrictive pericarditis, a rare condition that led to open-heart surgery at age 54.

Two months later, I was back in the mountains, training for the Mt. Ashland Hill Climb — a half marathon with a mile vertical gain. Two years later, I’m preparing for my first ultramarathon.

That experience changed how I think about medicine, recovery, and what people need when life becomes uncertain.

I know what it's like to search for answers.

I know what it's like to be told it's "just stress."

And I know how much it matters when someone finally takes your experience seriously.
