About Michelle Richea
I’m a full-time mom and a full-time Naturopathic Doctor, not to mention… garbage-taker-outer, camper, teacher, playdate-planner, wife, philosopher, and aspiring DIY crafter…So I get it. I get real life. I am always learning how to live healthier every day and enjoy working with my clients do the same.
I love what I do. I wear many hats in my role as a Naturopath – part detective, part medical library, part therapist – and I put these all together as a total health and wellness coach. From common kiddie colds to menopausal hot flashes I support each member of the family in an individual way.
I understand the seemingly impossible task of today’s ’to do’ list, and yet want to achieve much more than that in any given day. I understand that things don’t always fit into nice and tidy ‘black and white’ boxes and that real life happens somewhere in between. I am the real ND for the real world. I thrive on the weird and the wonderful and all the things that make you uniquely YOU! I want to support your health, not just for the sake of aceing your yearly physical exam… but so you can be the happiest, healthiest most fulfilled version of You. You are unique and so should be your healthcare. Our individualized approach can help you get to where you want to go.
I grew up on the standard North American diet (‘SAD’ as it’s called by some) but due to life-threatening personal health challenges I began to take a closer look at what I was eating and learn the association with my health. Reading food labels and carefully considering my nutrition has been a lifelong pursuit and learning opportunity.
From this personal experience, I was motivated to pursue a career in Naturopathic Medicine to help others gain some of the same awareness that I felt was so insightful in improving my own health.
