THERE IS INHERENT VALUE IN LIFE

Emily challenges the idea that health and healing are commodities to be consumed.

She actively resists the pathologizing of people as they face challenges or meet opportunities for growth. She peoples that all people are whole and deserve to be understood as such.

Her clinical decision making is guided by the medical ethical principles of autonomy, beneficence, non-malfeasance, and justice.

ALL PEOPLE DESERVE CARE

Emily’s practice is in service of all beings. She believes that medicine should be accessible and affordable to all people. Towards that end, she actively challenge attitudes that are sexist, racist, homophobic, transphobic, ableist, classist, sizeist in her classes, workshops, trainings and practices. Her office is wheelchair accessible and she is committed to making your experience as comfortable as possible.

community

WE ARE ALL CONNECTED

Beyond her practice, Emily is invested in educational programming that supports strong community networks and access to reliable information that furthers the development of medicine and health care.

Emily is also working to address public health issues in order to address the structural injustices that impact health for women and communities across generations.

ethical harvest

GIVE MORE TO GET MORE

This is especially true of the product driven herbal supplement industry. Ethical issues include the quality of herbal material, the manufacturing process of prepared remedies, and the fair wages of workers throughout the supply chain. She investigates, to the best of her ability, how any recommended remedies were grown, harvested, prepared, formulated, packaged, and shipped.

Any inorganic materials used in the apothecary are carefully chosen to minimize ecological burden. She is committed to reducing exposure to toxic chemicals that tend to accumulate throughout the supply chain.

The herbal products she stocks and recommends are made from organic, non-genetically-modified (non-GMO), wild-crafted, regenerative, or biodynamic sources. She focuses on herbs and remedies that can be found in regional habitats, that grow in abundance, or grown sustainably on local farms or in nurseries. Her apothecary also includes key Ayurvedic and Chinese herbs from non-local sources.
