About Cornerstone
What is it? Who is it? What does it offer?
You may be asking, why choose the name ‘Cornerstone Health & Well-Being’? Referring to its definition and symbolic nature, the cornerstones are an essential aspect of a firm foundation, an important quality or feature on which a particular thing depends or is based. The first stone set in construction, in which all other stones are to be set in reference, determining the structure’s entire position—the essential elements of strength and perseverance in life’s storms.
Cornerstone Health & Well-Being serves to highlight the fundamental elements of optimized wellness and vitality by first establishing a thorough understanding of ourselves and our unique healthcare needs. After fully understanding our personal history, we then address root health troubles such as hormone imbalances or deficiencies, nutritional imbalances or deficiencies, and provide functional primary care incorporated into treatment regimens as well as diet and lifestyle coaching to allow for fast-acting and noticeable benefits to everyday health and quality of life.
We aim to ask our patients, “Are we living a life on purpose? Or, does it seem to be the other way around?”. It’s far too easy to fall into the routine of thinking that being “busy” is the same thing as “acting significantly” toward a more fulfilled life. They are not the same! We can live our truth, and we can manifest better health in all aspects of our lives. This starts by addressing what we all have immediate and complete control over, ourselves.
Our goal at Cornerstone Health & Well-Being is to help our patients re-establish their “cornerstone”. To address the many root causes of our current health crisis and to fight the machines that profit from our sickness.
Message from Founder..
My mission is simple: to provide you with tools and insights to create a healthier, more fulfilling life. I aim to help you feel less isolated, support you through challenges, and share plenty of laughter as we learn and grow together. If I can help you avoid some of the health struggles and headaches I’ve encountered, then that’s a life well lived.
As a healthcare professional, I aim to empower others to take control of their health and well-being. I’m committed to breaking the societal barriers that limit our understanding of the crucial connection between mind, bodily science, and relationships. Whether you’re navigating the complexities of mid-life, menopause, or the ups and downs of, well, LIFE, it’s never too early or too late to realize that you are not broken. In my 24+ years of clinical experience, ranging from long-term care, family practice, acute hospital, cardiology, women’s health, and preventative medicine, I’ve witnessed firsthand how our society often fails to adequately educate us about our health, bodies, and mental well-being. I’m a mom, a wife, a clinician/nerd, and most importantly, a lifelong learner. Essentially, I’m your friendly expert here to guide you with compassionate, science-based advice. Let’s work together to redefine what it means to live a healthy, empowered life—one where you can thrive in mind, body, and relationships. Here’s to “Living a Life, On Purpose.”

Core Beliefs on Health & AMP:
Healing
1 - The body is capable of self-healing. When functioning at its best, the body’s natural power can exceed the effects of conventional treatments.
2 - Everyday choices shape our health. Patients are their own most important health care providers through lifestyle and habit decisions.
3 - The physician’s role extends beyond diagnosis. A doctor should seek to uncover the root causes of illness, educate patients on how to restore health, and personally model principles of wellness.
