NESH Alumni Practitioner Directory Listing (pending)
I am committed to helping my patients find health by becoming better acquainted with their bodies and by creating balance in their bodies and lives through tailored, quality healthcare.
Although I have a general practice and do see a wide variety of complaints, it has evolved to include a lot of work on infertility, mental health, and pain. My preferred modalities are homeopathy, acupuncture, nutrition, and holistic counseling. I love the tools that I consider the root of naturopathic medicine, steeped in tradition and following a lineage of our most beloved healers and doctors. I am inspired daily to help guide each of my patients on their journey to health and to empower people in their life choices.

Personal Interests: My kitchen is where you can often find me. It is kind of my lab, for cooking and baking and soap making. I also love to knit. Whether with food, soap, or fabric, I love to create with my hands. I also love travel. There are lots of places still on my list to explore!
From NESH: Jeanne first studied with NESH at our Two Year Course in Amherst, MA (2009-2010) and then in Boston (2013-2014). In addition to being a frequent participant at our Amherst Clinical Classes for NESH alumni since 2011, we’ve had the pleasure of her joining us again in Amherst for our 2016-2018 Two Year Course. Each time she studies with NESH, she deepens her understanding of the nuances of patient care and the holism of homeopathy.
