From turbulence to transformation

Adolescence is a powerful turning point in one’s young life. Much like placing a small boat into a turbulent ocean, navigating the choppy waters of puberty can be challenging for both teens and parents.

Blossom offers a calm harbor — a space of steadiness and understanding where growth, healing, and self-trust can unfold with authentic guidance and support.

Blossom begins here

I’m on a mission to…

Uplift our world by caring for those often overlooked — teenagers — as they navigate the powerful transitions of puberty. With the right start and compassionate guidance, young people can use the tools of natural medicine to cultivate balance, resilience, and lifelong well-being.

At Abundant Natural Healing, I offer parents a space where we look beyond medications and labels, and instead explore the deeper roots of imbalance. Through gentle, natural approaches — herbal support, lifestyle guidance, and Traditional Chinese Medicine — we help restore harmony within the teenage body, mind, and spirit.

Because if healing can begin with nature’s wisdom, why not start there?

about me

Finding harmony in the season of adolescence

Parents often sense it first — their teen seems restless, moody, or withdrawn. Sleep may waver, motivation may fade, and the simple rhythms of daily life can feel suddenly unsteady. These shifts can feel alarming, yet they are often the body and spirit’s way of speaking, signaling the immense changes unfolding within.

Adolescence is a time of profound growth, not only physically, but also emotionally and spiritually. For many teens, this period can feel like a storm at sea, waves of emotion rising and falling unpredictably. Mood swings, anxiety, fatigue, or sudden shifts in focus and confidence can leave parents wondering how to guide this seemingly new being safely to steadier ground.

In our culture, we often rush to “fix” what appears out of balance — labeling, medicating, or seeking quick solutions — rather than listening deeply to what the body, mind, and spirit are telling us. These challenges are not disruptions; they are messages, invitations to restore rhythm and nourishment at a deeper level.

This turbulence is not disorder, it is time of powerful and important transformation. With gentle guidance and the wisdom of natural medicine, the potent energy of this time can be shifted towards the gateway to balance, resilience, and radiant vitality.

Through Traditional Chinese Medicine, herbal support, and mindful lifestyle shifts, we help teens find their center — safely, naturally, and with respect for the unfolding journey of growth.

Why teens need this work

The early teen years are a time of unwavering change and transformation- the body, mind, and spirit begin to change shape and stretch into new territory. For many teens, this can feel confusing or unsteady: emotions fluctuate, sleep shifts, motivation wanes, anxiety lingers, and thoughts feel fuzzy. Parents often sense this palpable change before they can truly understand it- sensing some internal turmoil that their child is going through.

In these moments, it’s common to turn toward quick fixes or easy medical answers that label symptoms but may not heal the root. This doesn’t resonate with everyone, often times parents want their child to heal and not to mask the myriad of things that arise during this point in time. Many parents feel that what their teen truly needs is gentleness, time, and guidance that honors their body’s natural heath rhythms.

This is where my work begins.

Drawing on the wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine, herbal medicine, medical qigong, and experience supporting sensitive, evolving beings— I help teens reconnect with their natural selves. My approach mixes attentive, compassionate, and heart-centered communication with practical tools such as nourishment, rest, breath, herbalism and routine. This blend of natural healing wisdom and compassionate connection is what helps me to connect to you and your teen and to get to the heart of the imbalance.

Rather than pathologizing this stage of growth, I’ve learned to listen to it.

Through the Blossom program, we’ll work side by side - parent, teen, and practitioner - to restore balance, vitality, and ease during this important season of growth. Steady attentive care aligned with nature’s tool kit will bring us to our goals.

Client Testimonials

"We have seen noticeable improvement in my daughter's headaches and the focus has been on wellness and prevention, not simply symptomatic relief. Finally, my daughter emerges from an appointment with Phoebe feeling inspired and empowered to practice self-care and carry out the treatment plan that they co-create."

— Mom of a patient
"Phoebe is gentle and she always asks if whatever she is doing is too much or too easy for me. She really helped me with my headaches and I think she is great. "

- 11 year old female patient
"I highly recommend Phoebe as a caring and excellent practitioner of Chinese medicine especially suited for children and teens. We were seeking a practitioner for my 13 year-old who could combine skill, sensitivity and a child-appropriate approach. Phoebe exceeded our expectations. She has also since worked with one of our other children. "

— A.B.
"Phoebe brings strong training in Chinese medicine and has demonstrated comfort when working with younger patients-adapting treatment styles to be gentle and age-appropriate. In our visits she took time to explain everything clearly, and welcomed questions from both myself and our children. She creates an environment where our child feels heard and safe."

Let’s work together to help your teen thrive

True healing is deep and complex. Our bodies are constantly existing in a reality where we are trying to achieve homeostasis, balance. We might experience this balance only for mere seconds at a time. The work of this medicine is designed to teach your teen unique methods to connect them with that place of balance as often as possible. This work isn’t about perfection, but rather guiding the individual to return back to their center over and over again. Like exercise, this is a muscle that is built over time— through repetition and deeper understanding.

My role is as that guide. I translate traditional healing terminology and diagnosis into easy to digest nuggets of wisdom that encourage your teen to choose healing for themselves. When a person chooses consciously to heal and rebalance themselves, understanding that something just doesn’t feeling right, the healing potential is enormous. Teaching one to both identify and return to this place of wholeness breeds self confidence and a trust in oneself. This is the heart of what I hope your teen walks away from our time together with.

I’ve spent years helping families navigate this delicate stage of life, and showing people how to weave together the practical and the profound: nutrition, herbal medicine, medical qigong, and mindful lifestyle rhythms that restore harmony from the inside out. Each session is personal and intentional, offering focused communication and clear steps that meet your teen exactly where they are. I am here to guide, not to force.

What makes this work different is deep presence mixed with traditional knowledge and trust in the healing power of the universe. I take the time to pay attention and to notice the subtleties — the tone of a voice, the shift of sleep patterns, the emotions that hide beneath symptoms — and I translate those signs into understanding and direction. My goal is not to “fix” your teen, but to help them remember their natural balance and capacity to heal.

Working with me is a collaborative process. Sessions are thoughtful, intuitive, and deeply individualized — guided by both ancient frameworks and modern understanding of what teens need to thrive. My goal is to help your child not only feel better, but learn to trust their own rhythms and inner wisdom for years to come.

Together, we create a space where growth feels safe, healing feels possible, and your teen can rediscover their center and begin to build healthy foundations for their future.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Every family comes to this work with their own hopes, worries, and curiosities.
Here are some of the most common questions parents ask before beginning the Blossom journey.

I support teens navigating the physical, emotional, and energetic changes of adolescence — from stress, fatigue, and anxiety to mood shifts, sleep challenges, skin imbalance, or digestive upset. These are often signs that the body is asking for balance, not that something is “wrong.” Together, we help it find its rhythm again through gentle, natural support.
All sessions are held online, allowing you and your teen to receive care from the comfort of home. Through focused conversation, observation, and deep listening, I identify where the body and emotions may be out of sync. You’ll receive clear guidance on nutrition, herbal medicine, and lifestyle rhythms — plus ongoing support to ensure steady progress.
Usually yes, especially at the beginning of our time together. Parents are invited to share their observations and insights, and to help support the process at home. As we build trust, your teen may have part of the session one-on-one, fostering independence and self-awareness in a supportive way. Each family’s rhythm is unique, and we’ll find what works best for yours.
No. My work complements conventional care by addressing the root causes of imbalance through natural, non-invasive approaches. If your teen is currently under medical or therapeutic care, I encourage open communication so we can work together to support their overall well-being.
Each session begins with calm, focused listening — to the body, the emotions, and daily life patterns. We discuss what your teen is experiencing and explore the possible roots of imbalance. From there, I create a personalized plan with herbal, nutritional, and lifestyle recommendations to guide the body back toward balance. Follow-ups refine this plan as your teen grows and changes.
The One-Month Blossom is a wonderful introduction if you’re new to natural medicine or need focused support around a specific concern. The Three-Month Blossom offers deeper, ongoing guidance that allows time for transformation and integration. If you’re unsure, I can help you decide what’s best for your family during a short consultation call.
That’s completely natural. I create a relaxed, judgment-free space where teens can show up as they are. The process is gentle and collaborative — no pressure, no lectures. Once they feel heard and understood, most teens begin to open up and appreciate the experience of being truly seen.
