Hello beautiful soul,

My name is Dr. Samantha Petrin. I am a naturopathic doctor trained in a range of modalities that support trauma renegotiation and resolution, while also addressing the physical and physiological needs of your body.

I assess hormone status, gut health, metabolic health, and nutrient deficiencies, alongside mental and emotional well-being, because the body and nervous system are deeply interconnected.

My mission
To support individuals and groups in creating the necessary conditions for nervous system regulation, increasing overall vitality, and improving quality of life.

How I Can Support You

Testing and assessment
