About me
Herbs were always my hobby and passion. Overcoming my own numerous health problems, my science and research-oriented mind shifted – towards alternative medicine. I decided to change and improve not only my health but gradually also my profession. Coming from an Eastern European family that used more herbs than drugs, I am excited to offer a traditional naturopathy counseling practice into which I have integrated also other healing techniques like homeopathy, nutrition, Eden Method (formerly Eden Energy Medicine) and others.
Currently, I am sharing the office space with Cynthia Bretheim, MS, LMT (https://diywellbeing.com/). She has a master's degree from School of Public Health at IU and is nationally licensed massage therapist. She teaches amazing breathing workshops regularly.
