Linda has been in the healthcare field for over 35 years. As a registered nurse, Linda's passion was working with infants and children. Linda worked at St. Vincent Hospital in Maternity- postpartum and newborns. Linda continued on to work at Emanuel Hospital in Neonatal Intensive Care with premature infants. Later Linda decided to go back to school and graduated with a Masters  Degree in Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine in 1992. While in school, Linda went on a personal healing journey. This journey included getting certified in teaching Qigong and certified in shamanic healing. It was through this journey that Linda came forth with the following quote that guides her in her practice of medicine: "Heal the Heart, Heal the Inner Child, Find Peace Within". Linda treats a range of conditions with the main focus being chronic/acute pain, stress, anxiety and supporting emotional/physical well-being. Linda's services include acupuncture, qigong healing, and shamanic healing. Linda also supervises interns at the Oregon College of Oriental Medicine from where she graduated.
