DR. LAKISHA

My primary focus is on working with individuals to alleviate health concerns by addressing the root causes of their mental, physical, or spiritual symptoms. I bring a unique perspective to healthcare, specializing in herbs as the foundation of nutrition to alleviate symptoms of chronic, degenerative, and terminal illnesses. I deeply respect and advocate for individuals' rights to choose their medical options, be it traditional, alternative, or otherwise, to support their health and healing journey.

 

My passion for plant medicines is matched only by my commitment to healthcare reform. I possess a deep and comprehensive understanding of the endocannabinoid system (ECS), which I use to educate and inform people about incorporating phytonutrients as dietary supplements. My personalized approach empowers individuals to understand their bodies and discover the gentle power of the healing arts, bridging the gap between conventional and traditional medicine.

 

My practice embraces relationship-centered healthcare, a model prioritizing the relationship between the practitioner and the patient. This model fosters trust, empathy, and respect, making patients feel valued and understood. It aligns with my passion for providing a personalized approach to health and wellness. I use my extensive knowledge of therapeutic actions in various botanical materia medica and compounds in small batches to maintain consistency in formulation and quality as the core methodology of my botanical drug development strategy. I have developed over 400 proprietary botanical blends, 48 containing phytocannabinoids. 

 

My unique approach is centered on empowering my clients through education, fostering a deep understanding of their health. With a wealth of knowledge on hundreds of botanicals and their intricate nutritional relationship with our bodies, I believe that illness is merely the absence of health, which is the body's state of perfect balance. By equipping you with this knowledge, I aim to empower you to steer your health journey. 

 

As a traditional naturopath and clinical herbalist, I am committed to working alongside you and your care team to help you achieve, regain, or maintain homeostasis or balance, thereby enhancing your health to its peak. My healthcare philosophy is deeply rooted in patient-centeredness, where your well-being is always the primary concern. I strive to create a safe and nurturing environment for healing, placing your needs at the forefront of our journey and ensuring you always feel secure, confident, and important. 

 

While I advocate for the use of all plant medicines, my primary focus is on the Endogenous Cannabinoid System (ECS). This includes understanding the function and effects of phytocannabinoids. The widespread misinformation about the nutritional necessity of supplementing the ECS is not just a health issue but a matter of human rights. Addressing this issue is paramount in overcoming the medical and health disparities that affect us all.
