Question 1

What conditions do you treat?

Accepted Answer

I treat complex, chronic gut, brain & pain conditions that doctors and traditional medicine are unable to solve, such as:Gut health & digestive issues, like chronic bloating, diarrhea, constipation, IBS, IBD, SIBO, SIFO, GERDMental health issues, like anxiety, depression, trauma, CPTSD, depressionChronic pain & chronic fatigue issues, like fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndromeNeurological & brain health issues, like migraines, neuropathy, brain fog, Tourette's, ticsI'm the practitioner who solves chronic illness when other practitioners can't. If traditional medicine failed you, your body is not broken. The healthcare system failed to look deep enough and did not ask the right questions.If you want to take control of your health, understand your body, and learn how to heal, then I’m the practitioner for you.

Question 2

I've seen many doctors and still don't have answers. What makes your approach different?

Accepted Answer

Most doctors and specialists focus on symptoms, quick fixes, or a single system. My approach, called the DOTS Method™, is different because I look at the whole picture — your history, your mind and body connection, and the root causes driving your illness across all of your systems. I combine functional medicine and psychotherapy to heal both body and psyche, uncovering hidden patterns, clearing subconscious obstacles, and creating a plan that restores health on every level. It’s not about managing symptoms; it’s about helping your body truly restore balance so you can feel well again. Learn more about the DOTS Method.

Question 3

Do you work with adults, teens, and children?

Accepted Answer

Yes! I’m happy to work with adults, teens, and children. For younger kids, I often partner closely with parents or caregivers to make the process simple and supportive. My goal is to create a plan that feels doable for the whole family while helping your child feel safe, understood, and cared for every step of the way.

Question 4

What can I expect in a session with you?

Accepted Answer

Expect a conversation with an integrative, holistic root cause expert who gets you and genuinely cares about figuring out why you feel the way you do. A conversation that goes deeper than any you’ve had with a doctor. Because I take the time to listen and get to know you. I don't rush you out of my office after 15 minutes.More importantly, I listen not just to your symptoms, but to your story.I'm like a health detective sorting through clues until I find the smoking gun. Using the DOTS Method™, I connect the dots between your symptoms, emotional stressors, medical history, personal history, lifestyle patterns, and more. Doctors ignore these important clues. Doctors do not take the time to investigate the crime scene and immerse themselves in your entire health history. Without detailed knowledge of a crime scene, how can a detective solve the case?My goal is to determine why you feel the way you do — and what to do about it.Sessions are collaborative, educational, and deeply personalized. You’ll leave with clear next steps, helpful resources, a sense of direction — and answers.

How many follow-up sessions are expected?

Accepted Answer

Every person heals at a different pace, so there isn’t a one-size-fits-all solution. I'm always here for you whenever you need support. Most of my patients continue working with me through my DOTS Healthy for Life Program, which includes one-on-one sessions, continued education through webinars, guest speakers, and more.

Question 7

How much does it cost to work with you?

Accepted Answer

The goal is to provide personalized root-cause care that helps you understand why you have chronic symptoms and how to take control of your health so you can transform your health.

Question 8

Do you meet with clients in-person, virtually, or both?

Accepted Answer

When you’re living with chronic illness, the last thing you need is another obstacle between you and healing.I never let geography become an obstacle when it comes to your health.Therefore, I offer both in-person and virtual telehealth treatment.When you're battling a chronic illness, sometimes it's more convenient to meet virtually.

Question 9

Do you accept insurance?

Accepted Answer

At DOTS Wellness, we’re proud to be insurance-free. That means your care is guided by what’s best for your health, not what’s billable on a claim form. Insurance companies often limit the time, depth, and type of care you receive—but functional medicine and integrative psychotherapy don’t fit into those tiny boxes.Being insurance-free allows us to:
 ✔ Spend more time with you (no rushed 15-minute visits)
 ✔ Go deeper to uncover root causes, not just treat symptoms
 ✔ Create truly personalized plans tailored to you, not a diagnosis code
 ✔ Recommend the best labs, treatments, and supplements without restrictionWe believe your healing shouldn’t be dictated by red tape. Our clients value the freedom, flexibility, and results that come with choosing a practitioner who works for you, not an insurance company.

Question 10

How soon will I see results?

Accepted Answer

Of course, it would be unethical of me to guarantee results by a certain time frame.

Generally speaking, depending on the root cause and treatment plan, some clients start to notice improvements in 7-14 days. Of course, transformative change does not happen over night, and long-term healing takes time.

Considering that you are a unique human being with a very specific set of symptoms and circumstances... Your evolution to optimal health is a marathon, not a sprint. You're on a magnificent journey to the best version of you. It's hard to put a date on that. :)

Also, I'm not the boss of you. Your results depend on you. Results themselves are up to interpretation. Timing is based on a plethora of influencing factors. Your body will respond differently to treatment than others. Only you can decide if you feel improvements or positive changes because you are the only expert on you.

I sincerely believe that our work together provides you with growth and transformation, but I cannot guarantee or expect that to be the case. Having said that, I have confidence in my approach, training, and skill set. I'm confident that our work together will be rewarding, but I cannot guarantee results. I would be suspicious of anyone who does.

If you follow the treatment plan and diligently work the work, you'll get results. I have a long history of helping people achieve their health goals and resolving root cause of chronic illness. I trust our work together will provide you with a similar success story.

Question 11

Why do you integrate functional medicine and talk therapy (counseling)?

Accepted Answer

I'm a root cause medicine practitioner who integrates mind and body. There is a vast communication network between mind and body. For example, science has proven there exists a gut-brain axis that allows communication to flow freely. Mind and body work in concert. To truly heal, we must not ignore this sacred integration.
