Frequently Asked Questions

What are your qualifications?

I am a nationally board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner and member of the American Academy of Nurse Practitioners. I am licensed to practice and prescribe in Montana. I earned a Bachelor of Science in Nursing degree, magna cum laude, from the Beth-El College of Nursing at the University of Colorado @ Colorado Springs, and a Master of Science degree from Georgetown University in Washington, D.C. I have completed additional education and training in functional nutrition (Institute for Functional Medicine x International Nurse Coaching Association), integrative health and wellness coaching (International Nurse Coaching Association), non-invasive body sculpting, LED light therapy, clinical hypnosis (ASCH-accredited), Emotional Freedom Techniques (“tapping”), and acupressure. I hold an introductory certificate in Obesity Management. I also aim to continually improve my knowledge and skills through ongoing education, and always exceed the number of educational hours required to maintain my board certification.

In addition to my work at Integrated Wellness, PLLC, I also serve as the nurse practitioner for a local hospice agency and provide in-home/mobile primary care services to a small group of elderly members of the Flathead Valley community.

 What is “integrated healthcare”?

Integration can be considered from multiple perspectives. I view each person as an integrated whole that is greater than the sum of its parts and systems. In order to achieve optimal health and wellness, not only must each part or system function optimally, but the various parts must work together as a functional unit. My practice also integrates traditional and contemporary treatment modalities, the selection of which depends upon the patient’s individual situation and needs.

Will my insurance cover my visits? What is the cost?

The lifestyle, body contouring, and MPS services i provide are not covered by insurance. Rates vary depending on the complexity of our work together and are always disclosed before treatment begins. Discounted packages are available.

I am an enrolled provider with Medicare, BCBS of Montana, Pacific Source, Mountain Health Co-op, Triwest, and Humana.
