We Believe...
The doctor-patient relationship is an alliance. A partnership. A sacred bond whose entire purpose is to help the patient through the healing journey.
There is nothing inherently wrong with you. You are not broken, unfixable, a lost cause. You are suffering because no one has taken the time to see you, listen to you, speak to you, and help you as a whole individual with particular needs.
Our Mission
At Forward to Health, our mission is simple— to revive the timeless tradition of holistic medicine, make available the teachings of healing and health preservation in the modern context, and to support people forward on their individual healing journeys.
Whether this is attained via the clearing up of a chronic skin condition that pharmaceuticals had only exacerbated, or through lifestyle corrections that have allowed for a correction of proper physiological function, or through somatic work that supports people to process their traumas and emotional blockages… what always emerges on the other side is a feeling of lightness, a grounded confidence, clarity of perception & purpose, and the free-flowingness of energy.
This is the normal state of the human being when we are healthy, and I sometimes cannot believe how minor adjustments, in a short period of time, can return an ailing person to health like nothing was ever wrong.
This is a testament to the medicine and to the amazing God-given bodies that we have, that can return to balance with just a little bit of support.
No one knows you better than you know yourself.
Take charge of your health.
No one can be an authority regarding another’s subjective experience as a human being. Thus, the need for the alliance. The patient must be involved and invested in the process if the healer is going to be able to make a proper assessment, address the underlying issues, and share a plan that the patient is receptive to.
Throughout our years of practice, we’ve come to know that one of the biggest problems patients meet with is not finding someone who can deeply listen, attune, and understand their inner experiences.
Someone may have chronic pain, insomnia, or disturbed menses- and those are all significant problems- but what we find most people yearn for is someone to witness their pain. Not to be ‘fixed’. Not to be ‘doctored’. But to be understood and compassionately held.
Healing begins with attunement. Healing begins with connection. And the trauma-informed care that we offer allows for that deep, safe space for the work of growth and integration.
Instead of suffering with...
Chronic pain
Anxiety
Depression
Gut disturbances
Hormone imbalance
Anger disharmony
Metabolic disturbances
Skin issues

You can begin to live a light, pain-free, inspired, and wholesome life.
Understand your self, your pattern, strengths and weaknesses, and have the resources to take care of yourself.
Your state of mind shifts from one of fragmentation and fear to one of hope, gratitude, and openness to life.
The sky is the limit when the root causes are removed and the balance is re-established within.
As the Sages say:
The most important thing to come with is intention. Everything else flows from there.
