Naturopathic Doctor
Dr. Alexia decided to study naturopathic medicine in 1995 when she learned there was a truly holistic approach to health care. She had always been intrigued by the philosophy of ancient Greeks where medicine addressed the mental, emotional, physical and spiritual aspects of an individual.
Graduating from CCNM in 1999, Dr. Alexia began her private practice and worked extensively in Naturopathic Medical Education – as former Associate Dean of Clinical Studies at the Boucher Institute of Naturopathic Medicine, and as clinical faculty and lecturer at the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine for 15 years. Currently Dr. Alexia teaches at the Transformational Arts College in Toronto.
Dr. Alexia works with individuals to optimize their vitality from a place of balance. Having experienced burnout firsthand, Dr. Alexia learned that burnout is a purposeful and powerful state of transition. She also works with individuals to promote digestive health, strengthen immunity, improve joint health and enhance sexual/reproductive health.
Dr. Alexia’s approach is evidence informed, integrative and holistic, where thoughts, emotions, physicality and inner awareness are interconnected. When one area is misaligned, the whole is impacted and we no longer thrive. In addition to her naturopathic medical training, Dr. Alexia is certified in Inter-Professional Mindfulness Meditation, Transformative Mindfulness and as a Level 1 Qi Gong instructor. She is also Certified Professional Coach and offers Life Coaching sessions.
Dr. Alexia is NPLEX certified and registered with CONO (College of Naturopaths of Ontario). She continues to learn and deepen her own growth and training through naturopathic conferences as well as courses in mind body medicine, epigenetics, core shamanism, and metaphysics – where science and ancient wisdom are equally valued.
Dr. Alexia has presented at various conferences organizations including; the University of Toronto, Healing Skies Naturopathic Conference, Collaborative Education, and the American Association for Naturopathic Medical Education.
Dr. Alexia feels incredibly grateful to offer truly holsitic health care, and to honour our environment in our healing. The individuals she work with inspire her to walk her talk.
