Diane is a healer with a foot in two worlds—East and West—bringing decades of clinical insight, fierce compassion, and a calm, grounded presence to every patient she serves.
With over nine years of practicing Chinese medicine and more than 21 years of experience in Western medicine as both an ICU charge nurse and nurse anesthetist, Diane brings a rare and powerful blend of expertise to the table. Her background has placed her in high-stakes environments—from the intensity of the ICU to the quiet focus of the treatment room—and that range gives her an incredibly deep understanding of the human body and how to care for it.
Her approach is integrative and thoughtful: blending the time-tested wisdom of Eastern medicine with the critical care precision of Western medicine, she sees the whole person, not just the symptoms. Whether she's using battlefield acupuncture for quick, effective pain relief or oncology acupuncture to support clients navigating cancer treatments, Diane meets every patient with presence, purpose, and hope.
Diane’s journey into acupuncture began in the most personal way. Though she had long been curious about Eastern medicine—especially through her involvement in martial arts—it wasn’t until she witnessed acupuncture help a loved one in a way that felt nothing short of miraculous that her path became clear. That moment lit a fire that still fuels her practice today.
She is endlessly fascinated by the human body, and deeply moved by her patients’ resilience. For Diane, there is no greater reward than helping someone reclaim their joy, their balance, or their sense of normalcy. She believes healing is not just about removing pain—it’s about returning to wholeness.
When you work with Diane, you’re not just getting a treatment—you’re getting a partner in your wellness journey. Someone who listens deeply, explains clearly, and brings the full weight of her knowledge and care to every session. You’re in expert hands—and more importantly, kind ones.
