As a practicing OBGYN, I've witnessed thousands of women struggle through peri-menopause and menopause. So many feel dismissed, confused, and powerless in their own bodies.
I've watched brilliant, accomplished women lose themselves in hormonal fog, believing that exhaustion, obesity, and emotional volatility are just "part of getting older."
But here's what I know: midlife doesn't have to be about decline. It can be about renaissance.
That's why I created Halcyon Medical Group. Unlike typical coaching programs that offer generic advice, I bridge medical expertise with holistic transformation. You're not just a collection of symptoms, you're a dynamic woman with dreams and incredible capacity for growth.
Thank you for trusting me with your journey. Your best years aren't behind you—they're just beginning.
It All Started When I Realized Traditional Medicine Was Failing My Patients...
For years, I practiced conventional OBGYN, helping women through pregnancy and reproductive health. I loved my work, but something was missing.
Time and again, women in their 40s and 50s came to my office feeling lost and invisible.
They'd describe feeling like strangers in their own bodies. Waking up in pools of sweat. Snapping at their families over nothing. Struggling to remember simple words. Watching their metabolism stop and their weight increase despite their efforts to lose weight.
They'd been to other doctors who either dismissed their concerns with "that's just menopause" or offered cookie-cutter hormone prescriptions. No one addressed the deeper layers of what they were experiencing.
I felt their pain because I understood it wasn't just about hot flashes.
These women were questioning their health, their worth, their purpose, their future. They were grieving their younger selves while being told to "just accept" this phase.
The breaking point came when I became one of those women. Despite all my medical knowledge, I struggled with the same issues my patients faced.
I was tired of watching brilliant women shrink into shadows. And I was tired of a medical system that treated menopause like a disease to manage rather than a transition to optimize.
But Then Everything Changed...
I stopped seeing menopause as an ending. Instead, I started viewing it as an opportunity for reinvention.
So I dove deep into functional medicine, nutritional science, and integrative approaches. I assembled a team of specialists who shared my vision of treating the whole woman, not just her symptoms.
The breakthrough came when I realized women needed more than clinical expertise. They needed a guide who understood both the science AND the emotional complexity of this life stage.
As I integrated this comprehensive approach, something magical happened. My patients weren't just feeling better—they were thriving.
The woman who couldn't sleep was now waking up energized. The one who felt invisible and struggled to lose weight was now happily buying new clothes in smaller sizes. The executive whose career stalled was making bold moves and achieving new success. Old pastimes were reborn with new passions. Marriages were reignited.
That's when I found my true calling: helping women transform their midlife transition from loss into profound growth.
 Now I'm Able To Guide Women Through Their Most Powerful Transformation...
My journey through hormonal transition, combined with my medical expertise, positioned me uniquely to serve women who refuse to accept "this is just how it is."
Through Halcyon Medical Group, I offer what I wished I'd had: a physician who understands clinical complexities AND recognizes the incredible potential within every woman's midlife journey.
My signature program addresses six domains: physical health, nutritional optimization, hormonal balance, mental clarity, spiritual connection, and relational fulfillment.
Because true transformation isn't just about balancing hormones. It's about helping you emerge as the most powerful, purposeful version of yourself.
Every protocol is personalized based on comprehensive lab work. Every recommendation is backed by clinical evidence. And every step is supported by a multidisciplinary team working under my medical leadership.
The women I work with don't just overcome symptoms—they use this transition as a springboard to create lives they're truly excited about. They discover that their forties, fifties, and beyond can be their most vibrant decades yet.
