Natural Solutions for a Calm, Focused, Joyful Child
Meltdowns that throw your whole day off. Epic screaming at bedtime. Hitting, biting, scratching, yelling. Defiance and refusing to listen. Does this sound familiar? If you have a child anywhere between toddler and elementary age, it probably does.
Your friends say “Hang on, it gets better eventually.” But YOU are tired and frustrated. You find yourself staying home too often because you never know when a tantrum will hit. You’ve had to leave your groceries at the store and flee to to the parking lot. You’re worried something’s wrong, you’re feeling uncertain about parenting, and you’re not sure this will get better.
I can help. My 100% natural, medication-free pediatric therapies help your child overcome tantrums and feel calm, focused, and joyful. I use a gentle but powerful combination of painless, non-needle techniques; simple nutritional guidance; safe, effective herbal medicine designed for kids; and tools for calming tantrums that can be used anywhere, anytime.

Here’s How I Help Your Child Achieve Calm, Focus, and Happiness
Foundational Factors Assessment – I’ll assess your child’s situation to determine their unique constitution and the root causes of their tantrums.
Needle-Free Nervous System Reset – From your child’s very first session, I’ll use fast-acting needle-free protocols that quickly calm and regulate emotions. Weekly sessions will focus on locking in those changes and nourishing your child’s entire body so that they continue to thrive.
Whole Body Plan of Care – Next, I’ll develop a comprehensive yet simple plan to treat the root cause along with any other bothersome symptoms your child might be having (such as tummy pain, disturbed sleep, or anxiety). Your child’s treatment plan will include one or more of the following therapies: non-needle stimulation of key acupuncture points, targeted nutritional recommendations, herbs, relaxation exercises, and at-home acupressure routines.
“Frazzled Parent” Self-Care Strategies – I know you’re tired and stressed too. Many of the suggestions I make for kids are just as valuable for adults, and doing them together is a great bonding experience. I’ll be sure to let you know what can help you while you’re helping your child!
Ensure Stable, Lasting Results – Once we’ve achieved consistent relief, I’ll gradually reduce the frequency of the treatments to ensure that your child’s results last.

Common Questions & Answers
Needles aren’t necessary! I’m trained in a variety of easy, needle-free, painless techniques that stimulate key points and have the same effects as acupuncture. For kids who ARE curious about acupuncture, I use tiny pediatric needles that most kids don’t even feel.
That’s okay! They don’t have to. Kids can be treated anywhere they’re comfortable: on the floor, in a chair, in a parent’s lap. I work with each point or area of the body for just 15-30 seconds at a time. My office is kid-friendly and has books and toys to keep your little one happily occupied during his or her treatment time.
Absolutely not. There is no conflict between the therapies I use and use of medications.
No problem. I understand busy schedules and offer evening and Saturday appointments to accommodate school and working parents.
I prefer to start by ADDING supportive foods into your child’s diet rather than taking things away. Every initial evaluation includes discussion of what your child is eating, including their likes and dislikes. While it sometimes is necessary to reduce or eliminate trigger foods, that’s typically something we discuss after we see the response from other treatment strategies.
Children respond very quickly to Chinese medicine! While everyone is different, I expect to see improvement within the first 1-3 sessions. At that point, we can determine how many sessions will be needed to lock in results so your child experiences more stable emotions on a regular basis.
