Hi, I’m Cara.

L.Ac., Dipl. O.M.

ACUPUNCTURIST, HERBALIST,
WELLNESS MENTOR, AND ENTREPRENEUR

I’m deeply passionate about helping individuals who truly value their well-being and are dedicated to improving their health. With a wealth of experience spanning more than 14 years as an acupuncturist and herbalist, as well as 10 years as a psychological research specialist at UIC and NYU, I have a comprehensive understanding of how emotions profoundly impact the physical body. This knowledge informs my practice, where I place a strong emphasis on addressing emotional well-being.

At the core of the healing journey lies a nurturing and compassionate environment, and I firmly believe in the transformative power that stems from genuine human connection. By infusing warmth, kindness, intuition, and a heart-centered approach, I create an atmosphere that cultivates healing and growth. Recognizing that health encompasses all aspects of our being, I harmoniously integrate the wisdom and practices of both Eastern and Western medicine. This approach allows for a holistic healing experience, fostering relaxation, empowerment, and a renewed sense of hope.
