Frequently Asked Questions

Yes! My entire practice and programs are 100% virtual, meaning I can support you no matter where you're located. However, due to licensing regulations, I am only licensed as a doctor in Arizona. If you live outside of Arizona or outside the U.S., I can still work with you as a health consultant, providing expert guidance, lab recommendations, and personalized wellness plans—just not in the capacity of a doctor. My goal is to help you feel your best, wherever you are!

A naturopathic doctor (ND) is a healthcare professional who specializes in natural, holistic approaches to healing. We focus on treating the root causes of health issues rather than just symptoms. Naturopathic doctors use a variety of natural therapies, including nutrition, herbal medicine, lifestyle changes, and mind-body techniques, to support the body’s innate ability to heal itself.

As a naturopathic doctor, I work with you to create a personalized treatment plan that addresses your unique health concerns, such as gut health, hormonal imbalances, and chronic conditions like IBS and PCOS. My goal is to empower you with the knowledge and tools to take control of your health and achieve long-term wellness.

Naturopathic medicine is a distinct primary healthcare system that combines modern scientific knowledge with traditional and natural forms of medicine. The principles of naturopathic medicine are based on holistic approaches that emphasize the body's inherent ability to heal and maintain itself. Here are some key aspects:

1. Holistic Approach: Naturopathic doctors (NDs) treat the whole person, considering the physical, mental, emotional, genetic, environmental, social, and spiritual factors affecting health.

2. Prevention and Education: Emphasis is placed on preventive care and patient education. NDs work with patients to develop healthy lifestyle habits to prevent illness and promote optimal health.

3. Natural Therapies: Treatment methods may include nutritional counseling, botanical medicine, homeopathy, physical medicine, lifestyle counseling, and, when necessary, prescription medications.

4. Individualized Care: Each patient receives personalized care tailored to their unique health needs and circumstances.

5. Root Cause Focus: NDs seek to identify and treat the underlying causes of illness rather than just addressing symptoms.

Naturopathic medicine is suitable for a wide range of health issues, from acute conditions to chronic illnesses. It can be used alongside conventional treatments or as a standalone approach, depending on the patient's needs.

If you have any more questions or would like to learn how naturopathic medicine can benefit you, please feel free to contact our office.

Absolutely! You don’t need to have all three concerns to benefit from the Nourished Balance Program. Many women come to me struggling with just one or two areas—like persistent bloating, irregular cycles, or unexplained anxiety.

The truth is, gut health, hormones, and mental well-being are deeply connected. Even if you don’t realize it yet, one imbalance can often impact another. By addressing the root cause, we’ll create a plan tailored to your unique symptoms—whether that’s improving digestion, regulating your cycle, or restoring emotional balance.

If you’re feeling stuck in your health, this program is designed to help—no matter where you’re starting from. 💛

Unfortunately, I do not accept insurance for our appointments, as many insurance companies do not fully cover naturopathic doctors. However, if you live in Arizona, we can work together to help get your lab costs covered through your insurance.

Alternatively, you are welcome to receive services from us on a self-pay basis. We can provide you with a detailed invoice that you can submit to your insurance for potential reimbursement.

Due to the nature of our one-on-one appointments and the time required to prepare for each session, we have a specific policy in place.

Cancellation Policy:

1. Cancellations must be made at least 24 hours in advance of your scheduled appointment time.

2. If you cancel within 24 hours of your appointment or do not show up, we are unable to offer a refund.

This policy allows me to manage my schedule effectively and ensure that we can provide the best possible care to all of our patients.

If you need to reschedule or cancel your appointment, please contact our office as soon as possible at (480) 788-3038 or hello@balanceinbeauty.org. I appreciate your understanding and cooperation.

Homeopathy is a natural healing system based on the principle that "like cures like." It involves using highly diluted substances derived from plants, minerals, or animals to stimulate the body's natural healing processes. The goal of homeopathy is to restore balance to the body and mind by addressing the root cause of illness rather than just treating symptoms.

Homeopathy works well for both chronic conditions and acute issues, such as colds, injuries, and flare-ups. Homeopathic remedies are tailored to the individual, considering their specific symptoms, health history, and emotional state. It’s a gentle and holistic approach that supports the body’s ability to heal itself, whether dealing with long-term health challenges or temporary conditions.
