How does hypothyroidism slow you down?

Thyroid health affects every corner of your life—your energy, mood, metabolism, digestion, mental clarity, and more. When your thyroid isn’t functioning properly, it can feel like your body is no longer working with you—but no one seems to have answers.

I know that feeling firsthand. During grad school, I struggled with fatigue, brain fog, hair loss, weight changes, depression—you name it. I was told my labs looked “normal,” and for years, no one thought to check for thyroid antibodies. Eventually, I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, an autoimmune condition that causes your immune system to attack your own thyroid tissue.

Turns out, I wasn’t alone. Over 90% of hypothyroid cases in the U.S. are caused by Hashimoto’s, yet it’s rarely fully addressed in conventional care. Most patients are prescribed thyroid hormone medication, and while that can help, it doesn’t stop the autoimmune process or fully restore quality of life. Many people continue to feel off—even when their labs say everything is “fine.”

You deserve better than that.

In my practice, I take a naturopathic and root-cause approach to thyroid health. We focus on identifying and treating the underlying drivers of dysfunction—chronic inflammation, nutrient imbalances, blood sugar instability, gut health issues, and more. By supporting the immune system and optimizing the way your body produces and uses thyroid hormone, we can begin to calm the storm—not just mask the symptoms.

Using targeted nutrition, lifestyle strategies, and evidence-based natural therapies, we’ll work together to build a foundation for healing. You don’t have to settle for a life where you’re just getting by.
