Meet the Practitioners

I was born in Sudbury Ontario and I have been down in southern Ontario now for 25 years, I love living in Port Stanley, but a slice of my heart is still northern. I have an honors degree in Science from the University of Waterloo, and my doctorate comes from the Canadian College of Naturopathic medicine. I graduated from CCNM in 2002 and started up my practice in St Thomas and Blenheim. My husband and I have 2 boys. I love the flexibility of a practice that allows me to be home with my boys to see them grow and change. My passions for practice revolve around nutrition, hormonal concerns, pediatrics and general health concerns. I am able to work in conjunction with a wide variety of other practitioners both in St Thomas and Blenheim. I love what I do and I am honoured to be able to practice in both St. Thomas and Blenheim.

My family has been in St. Thomas for 56 years. I married my husband Dan 1991 and raised my son Jamison in this great community. I met Megan as a patient, her kind and knowledgeable approach to my illness made me a different person so when the opportunity came to work for her, I took it!

I have been with Megan for 15 years now. I look forward to everyday spent at the office, the challenges, the success stories and just being part of this “family” I am grateful.

I have been a registered massage therapist for over 20 years in St Thomas. My husband Tyler and I have 3 high spirited children, between his business (Hugh’s heating and cooling), my work and our children, we are always active. I enjoy individualizing massage needs from relaxation to deep tissue. I believe in helping rehabilitate people on postural and muscle imbalances to optimize body function and to decrease pain. I have taken many courses throughout the years which help guide me in my treatment of your specific needs. My new passion is to make massage oils and skincare products to meet the demanding needs for people with allergies and the desire to be chemical free.

I graduated from the Child and Youth Work program at Fanshawe College in 2008. I worked for a short time in a group home setting before continuing my studies and completing a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and Bachelor of Social Work degree in 2010 at Laurentian and Lakehead University, respectively. I began working at a crisis line followed by mental health case management for the first two years of my career. For the following 4 years, I worked as a mental health/addiction specialist to house people who struggled with chronic homelessness. I have recently changed positions and am working part time at a youth counseling clinic while also working casually in a child and youth residential home setting. I was born and raised in St. Thomas and still live here with my fiancé and his two children. I have always had a passion for listening and the desire to relieve people of their struggles. I strongly believe that having an objective person to speak with when life gets you down can provide that needed alternative perspective to change the way we are thinking and assist us to continue moving forward. Whether it be large or small, I look forward to the opportunity to lighten a burden and allow more space in one’s mind to enjoy life a little more.

I grew up in St. Thomas and now live the simple life out in the country with my husband Jason, where we strive to grow our own food and medicinal plants. Together, we own a business called JK Scott Natural Health and Wellness.

I completed my Honours double major in Psychology and Disability at Western University, and have been working in the health and wellness field for the last four years. I am passionate about taking a holistic approach to wellness, by carefully examining the interconnectedness of the mind, body and spirit. I love to learn and to connect with people. I am fortunate to offer an alternative approach to health through quantum biofeedback scans, where I help individuals to gain a better understanding of themselves and why they might be feeling the way that they feel. I am honoured to be a part of a team of incredible women here at Silver Birch.
