Integrated Care for Complex Conditions

Empty space, drag to resize

If you're living with persistent health issues that involve multiple systems—digestive problems alongside chronic pain, stress affecting your physical symptoms, or eating patterns intertwined with emotional wellbeing—you may benefit from an integrated approach.

Our clinical coaching practice addresses complex functional conditions through the integration of psychological medicine, lifestyle interventions, and evidence-based behavioral approaches. Rather than treating symptoms in isolation, we work with the interconnected nature of chronic conditions.

For New Clients:
Request Consultation

While my primary focus is now on practitioner education and healthcare systems design, I maintain a limited clinical coaching practice for patients with complex chronic conditions.

I take time to review each consultation request to ensure we're a good fit and that I can provide the depth of attention your situation deserves.

If you're experiencing complex chronic conditions that involve multiple interconnected systems and believe an integrated approach may help, I invite you to share a bit about your situation.

I review all requests personally to ensure I can provide appropriate care given my current capacity and clinical focus. You'll hear back within 3-5 business days with next steps.
