Q: Tell us a little about yourself
A: I’m native to Massachusetts. I grew up in Methuen, MA. I have 2 sisters and 3 nieces. I obtained my undergraduate education at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst where I studied Communications and Film studies. I also work as the Admissions Coordinator at the New England School of Acupuncture.
Q: What kind of training did you receive prior to obtaining your acupuncture license?
A: The New England School of Acupuncture is a rigorous 3 year program. I focused on Chinese and Japanese acupuncture styles. I completed 9 clinic rotations, 630 treatment hours and countless observation hours. I had clinical rotations at 2 local hospitals and have experience treating infants and elders. I also have a certificate from the Auriculotherapy Institute in California and went to Japan in 2009 to study advanced moxibustion techniques and post-stroke treatment.
Q: What kinds of clients have you particularly enjoyed treating or have had great success with?
A: I haven’t had a patient yet that I didn’t learn something from. I am always evolving as a practitioner. I have had a lot of enjoyment treating pregnant women as well as infants. With children, you really have to rely on what you see and feel because they can’t always comprehend what you are asking them in an interview.
Q: What is the unique experience patients will have when they come to see you (as opposed to a different acupuncturist?)
A: Since I have a comprehensive background in both Chinese and Japanese acupuncture, my patients can be sure that I will fully assess them and select which type of treatment suits their particular needs and comfort level. I am compassionate and competent.
Q: Why did you choose Well Within as the home for your private practice?
A: I chose Well Within as the home for my practice because I loved the collaborate environment that exists here. I understand that a patient’s needs may be outside what I, alone, can provide. Having like-minded individuals around, who care about the complete care of an individual really makes me feel supported. I know that this environment will allow me to give the best care possible to my patients.
