My Story
As a naturopathic doctor and acupuncturist, I work with busy women who are tired and unsatisfied with a life that is just “okay”.
My 13+ years of clinical practice has taught me so much that I love passionately sharing. I’m a dual registered practitioner with the College of Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioners and Acupuncturists of Ontario and the College of Naturopaths of Ontario. My mission has brought me to various audiences as a speaker such as the Ontario Association of Naturopathic Doctors, and for the MS Society of Canada.
As the CEO and Clinical Director of InVersa Health, I created the Resilience Reset Program designed to promote calm, confidence and all-day energy in the face of depleting daily life stress.
When I’m not with patients, I spend time connecting with family, friends & colleagues. You can often find me in nature hiking, foraging & photographing.
My passion for helping women heal and build their healthcare teams has led to me create & host a television series on Shaw Spotlight called “Elevating Women’s Wellness”. In this series, I interview local female healthcare providers on relevant women’s health topics from pelvic health, mental wellness, to Indigenous health to elevate your wellness.
Most importantly, I am a wife to a loving husband, a daughter to amazing parents, a proud sister of two caring brothers, an aunt to beautiful nieces and an adorable nephew and the granddaughter of extraordinary role models in heaven.

Care Coordinator
Hello! My name is Barb and I am the Care Coordinator here at InVersa Health.
I was born and raised in Sault Ste. Marie and met my husband here. After we married, his job led us to Elliot Lake for 4 years and then to North Bay for 14 years. We raised our two children there and most recently my husband’s job promotion brought us all back home.
We are thrilled to be back, closer to our parents and family and to reconnect with old friends. I am excited at the opportunity to make your visit to our office a pleasant experience. I look forward to meeting you.
