About Susan

HOLISTIC HEALTH AND WELLNESS PROFESSIONAL

My Training:

I graduated from University of California Santa Barbara with a Bachelor of Science in Sociology. Fascinated with the human body, I received a Massage Practitioner Certification from Cypress Health Institute in California. I also became certified in Reiki and worked with clients integrating swedish massage, polarity, and Reiki. Deepening my quest for learning more about health and nutrition, I obtained a Comprehensive Nutrition Diploma from the American Academy of Nutrition. Upon further study I completed both a Doctor of Naturopathy and Master of Science in Natural Health from Clayton College of Natural Health. I practice traditional naturopathy. I do not practice naturopathic medicine that uses prescription drugs, invasive procedures, and allopathic treatments.

 

My Professional Background:

I have always worked in a corporate setting ever since my full time job out of college, so I am well aware of the stress and pressures workers undergo. My background is actually in marketing communications, web and graphic design, and I have worked in a multi-industry capacity from vitamin supplements, pharmaceuticals, nutritional raw materials, software, disaster cleanup, and forensic engineering.

 

My Goals:

My passion is really about helping other people with education when it comes to health, nutrition and skin care products. I really love teaching "newbies" how to incorporate a healthier lifestyle into their existing one. The benefits of incorporating small changes in one's life, far outweigh the reasons not to. Avoiding it because you think it's too hard or takes too much time might be realities sometimes, but the truth is, learning and incorporating optimal nutrition and health is really very basic...start small and keep it simple. People that just need a nudge in the right direction and don't know where to start are who I love to help.
