Calm the Body | Quiet the Noise
Calm the Body | Quiet the Noise
Calming care for people navigating pain, stress, and chronic illness.
Quiet Medicine centers on gentle, hands-on craniosacral therapy — a quiet, restorative way of supporting the nervous system when it’s been stressed, overworked, or out of balance for too long. The work is gentle, focused, and unhurried, giving your system space to soften, unwind tension, and find steadiness again. When it’s helpful, I offer simple, strategic naturopathic guidance — nothing rushed or overwhelming, only what feels supportive for where you are.
I offer calming, hands-on craniosacral therapy in 60-, 75-, or 90-minute sessions. We start with a brief check-in to see how you’re arriving, and close with another check-in to see how you’ve responded and to discuss any insights or ideas for future sessions.
When it feels supportive, I may offer simple naturopathic guidance — never more than you can realistically do. Quiet Medicine is built on the idea that healing doesn’t come from doing more; it comes from doing what matters.
In a world of information overload and constant distraction, my approach stays grounded in the present moment and focused on what your body is saying beneath the surface.
I work with people living with chronic illness, chronic pain, chronic stress, and medical trauma. Some are dealing with long-standing symptoms like fatigue, brain fog, pain, or digestive concerns. Some may be in a flare and need care to help bring things back toward balance. Others are burned out from years of pushing themselves beyond their limits or are recovering from difficult experiences. Quiet Medicine offers a calm, comforting space to slow down, reset, and move toward balance.
I am a registered naturopathic doctor (#1039) in Saint Paul, MN, with a practice centered on gentle, hands-on craniosacral therapy. I’m trained in naturopathic medicine, chronic illness support, mindfulness-based therapies, and trauma-informed approaches that honor the pace and sensitivity needed when working with the nervous system.
My background includes private clinical practice and research in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at the University of Minnesota. I’ve also completed additional training in craniosacral therapy, the Perrin Technique, Hakomi, motivational interviewing, massage, homeopathy, and other therapeutic approaches. My focus is always the same: choosing the most supportive way to help the person in front of me.
I volunteer at Sholom Hospice, providing bereavement and end-of-life support—work that continually shapes my commitment to presence, patience, and deep listening.
Alongside my clinical training, I have lived with complex chronic illness for over a decade. This experience profoundly informs how I practice. It’s why Quiet Medicine moves at a gentler rhythm—one that remains attuned, grounded, and sustainable for both of us.
I offer care that is steady, intentional, and centered on what your body is saying. Whether you’re navigating chronic symptoms or the long-term effects of stress, illness, or medical treatment, you’ll be met with gentleness, honesty, and support that matches the pace your body needs.
