Why I Practice

With over two decades of working on the front lines of fertility, pregnancy, birth, and women’s health, I’ve found that fertility and obstetric care require an integrative approach. And that’s why I collaborate with the industry’s premier fertility specialists, obstetricians, midwives, and allopathic healthcare providers nationwide -- bridging the gap between Eastern and Western medicine -- to provide you the absolute best care available to meet your needs. 

Here you will find deeply compassionate support on your journey towards optimal health, fertility, pregnancy, motherhood, and healing.

One of the biggest pitfalls of modern society is the idea that we can ‘do it all,’ without the support of our tribe, family, or community. After 20 years working in women’s health, one thing is abundantly clear: women need women. We all need mothering, we all need nurturing - it is the very key to living our best lives, the roadmap to wellness. I’ve been called to support women out of this healing space, and am eager to care for you, wherever you are on your journey. 

From gynecology and women's health to the childbearing cycle, motherhood, and into peri/menopause, my team and I consult in my West Los Angeles center and work nationwide through online consulting, speaking, and workshops. We offer in-person care, virtual coaching, and online classes with a focus on acupuncture, herbal medicine, nutritional support, and various bodywork modalities. I look forward to connecting with you soon. 

In health,

Dr. Laura
