A smiling female healthcare professional wearing a white coat and a black and wood bead necklace.

Hi! I’m Dr. Jiselle, a licensed naturopathic doctor, with a clinical focus on digestive, hormonal and mental health.

Through evidence informed and traditional medicine I support people navigating:

  • Perimenopause and menopausal health

  • Digestive health

  • Stress, burnout and nervous system repair

Working with people I deliver culturally sensitive, trauma informed care that supports and honours where you are at in your journey. It brings me joy to help people understand their symptoms, and navigate them with naturopathic care and their own connection to their body’s wisdom, as they uncover or remember the tools, practices and supports to feel better.

Outside of working as an ND I regenerate and restore through regular doses of nature by large bodies of water, tall trees, and walk softly on earth, whenever possible.

FAQs

β€œDeep medicine, for us, is the understanding that health can no longer be viewed as something we can try to get as individuals. We have to understand that health must be attained in the context of our communities, of our families, where we are in our societies, and in relationship to the web of life.”
