Work With Dr. Joy
What qualifies me to call myself a Naturopath, and why work with me over another functional medicine or integrative health doctor or practitioner?
Let’s start with my qualifications. I’m a Bastyr-trained Naturopathic physician with 20 years experience in practice.
But I’m not your typical 4-year N.D.
I’m also highly trained:
- Bioenergetic medicine
- Homeopathy
- Herbalism
- Holistic solutions for childhood illness
- Reiki
- Reconnective healing
- Naturopathic pet care
- Quantum reflex integration
- And other eclectic mind-body healing modalities.
I don’t practice purely physical or “green medicine”, where I tell you what you eat, how to exercise, and which supplements to take for your symptoms.
Rather, I help guide adults, children, and animals to decode your body’s “secret language of symptoms” so we can get to the root cause of your symptoms and empower you back to joyful health.
What Health Conditions Do You Treat?
My approach is successful (often when others have failed) because we address all layers of health and dis-ease—the physical, emotional (conscious and unconscious), and energetic (Bioenergetic medicine).
Approaching your whole self this way allows us to resolve a variety of mysterious and/or challenging conditions, including:
- Adrenal fatigue
- Allergies
- Autism, ADD, ADHD
- Autoimmune diseases
- Blood sugar imbalances including Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes
- Cancer
- Candida
- Children’s health issues
- Digestive health issues such as constipation, Crohn’s disease, IBS, colitis, Small Intestinal Bacteria Overgrowth (SIBO), etc.
- Dysbiosis
- Fatigue
- Fibromyalgia
- Food allergies
- Food sensitivities
- Genetic mutations
- MTHFR
- Methylation pathways
- Down’s syndrome
- Heart disease
- Hormonal imbalance in men and women
- Inflammatory Skin Conditions such as acne, eczema, and psoriasis
- Leaky Gut Syndrome
- Lyme Disease
- Metabolic Syndrome (Syndrome X)
- Migraines and chronic headaches
- Neurodevelopmental issues in adults and children
- Nutrient Deficiencies
- Thyroid issues (hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, Grave’s Disease, Hashimoto’s)
- Women’s Health Issues
- …and much more
Together, we will nourish your whole self with exactly what it needs to heal while skillfully pruning out the trouble-makers that are causing unwanted symptoms or syndromes.
What to Expect When Becoming a Patient
If you’re interested in working together, you can:

During your 60-75 minutes initial consult (virtual or in-person in Pittsburgh, PA), Dr. Joy will conduct a thorough patient intake, followed by a BioEnergetic assessment to tap into “your body’s secret language of symptoms”, and assess foundational aspects of health.
Once Dr. Joy has collected her intel, she will work with you to design a custom holistic naturopathic program to address the root cause of your health concerns.
Dr. Joy will recommend follow-up appointments, where she’ll re-test, tweak your program as-needed, and answer questions, based on your individual needs.
