Hi, I’m Laura
I’m a naturopathic practitioner focused on helping you understand your body and heal at the root. You’re not broken—and your body isn’t working against you. It’s communicating. My approach looks beyond symptoms. I help you slow down, listen to those signals and uncover what your body actually needs to restore balance, energy and long-term health.
Why I Started Light & Leaf
In 2018, I started having debilitating symptoms; these symptoms were so bad that I couldn’t go to work or perform any normal activities. I had chest tightness, extreme insomnia, facial flushing, anxiety, digestive issues, body aches and cognitive issues.
After visiting many doctors and specialists, it wasn’t until I met with a naturopathic doctor who not only found what was causing these symptoms (I was told by one doctor I needed to see a psychiatrist because she didn’t believe me) but put me on a holistic protocol to ease the symptoms and fight my double infection. Within a week I noticed my symptoms lessening and within a few months I felt 100% better!
The reason I started Light & Leaf is because there are many people who feel sick or unwell or just “out of it” and yet nothing helps. I understand how they feel especially when no one seems to believe you are sick. You can’t keep treating the symptoms; you need to play detective and find out what is CAUSING the symptoms. My goal is to reach as many people as possible help them onto a better path of wellness.

My Philosophy And Approach
Like many of my clients, I’ve seen what happens when symptoms are treated without ever asking why they’re there in the first place. My role is to provide wellness education, lifestyle guidance, and holistic support focused on foundational health practices. I help clients better understand potential contributors to imbalance and support healthier daily habits through personalized wellness strategies. My approach is rooted in understanding those signals, not silencing them. Because real healing happens when you address the root, not just the symptoms.
Root Cause Focus
I look beyond symptoms to understand what’s really going on in your body and what can be done to heal.
