Self-Management Strategies

At the heart of my healthcare approach is the belief in the power of patient empowerment. This means equipping you, the valued patient, with self-management strategies that are integral to the healing process. Techniques such as adopting positions for relief and mastering pain management strategies allow you to take an active role in your healthcare journey.

Patient Empowerment through Active Health Management

By teaching you self-management strategies, I hope to empower you to take control of your pain and learn methods to reduce the likelihood of re-injury. The practical, day-to-day steps you take to be an active participant in your healing will help you to manage your pain and discomfort moving forward.

My Approach

I offer an evidence based and patient centered approach to pain education and management

Initial Assessment

A thorough in-person history and physical examination allows me to have a better understanding of you, your health history, your health & wellness goals, as well as your pain experience to determine the best treatment options available.

Individualized Treatment Plan

No cookie cutter approaches – my practice puts you first. My commitment is to ensure that you feel seen, heard, and understood by your healthcare team. I create individualized treatment plans that take into consideration your treatment preferences, research recommendations, and my own professional experience to help you achieve meaningful and impactful health goals

Ongoing Guidance and Support via Email

We all know how busy life gets, and sometimes it’s easy to not prioritize our own health and wellbeing. I offer ongoing guidance and support via email to help you stay accountable to your health and wellness goals, even when other life priorities are competing for your time and energy!

Collaboration with other Healthcare Providers

I appreciate the role of all healthcare professionals within the healthcare system. As such, I foster an interprofessional and collaborative approach to the care of each of my patients to ensure they get the care they need and deserve, whether it be with me or another healthcare provider.
