Founders

I'm a nurse practitioner with an extensive work history of pediatric cardiology.   I'm passionate about long term solutions to the health problems my patients face.

I work to help patients discover whole body health by uncovering intersystem connections and restoring their balance. My passion is to combine my love of learning with my empathy for all people. I strive to help patients realize their fullest potential utilizing lifestyle and nutritional changes.  I obtained a B.S. in Biopsychology, Cognition, and Neuroscience from the University of Michigan. The brain continues to captivate my interest, especially in how we can utilize modalities such as meditation, biofeedback, and neurofeedback to improve function in the rest of the body. 

My goal as a ketamine guide is to create a safe and comfortable space for each patient I work with. I studied psychology at Westminster College and I rely on contemporary scientific research to inform my practice. 

I have learned a lot while working as a ketamine guide over the past year. The experience I continue to gain each day teaches me to best support patients through their transformative experiences. Overall, I draw from my college education, my own independent research, my life experiences, my experience on the job, various patient anecdotes, and the wisdom from my many mentors and friends.

Admittedly, I do not subscribe to any spiritual or metaphysical modalities for healing, however, I do believe that through empathy, love, and patience I can effectively help anyone navigate their ketamine experiences.

I have been amazed to see so many lives changed by ketamine over the last year, mine included. Ketamine has been the best thing by far for my depression and anxiety, although I have also seen ketamine used effectively to treat PTSD, addiction, eating disorders, and chronic pain.

I am very passionate about psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy and I would love to talk about the science of psychedelics with anyone who is curious. If you would like to chat, feel free to email me at matthew@restheal.org.  

I am a social development, technology, and wellness enthusiast, and I believe firmly in the use of innovation and creativity to produce positive change. My first and foremost goal is to serve and help. Here at Restorative Health, I have the opportunity to achieve it every single day, having the possibility to improve my skills and develop myself as a person and individual in a community where everyone works for the wellbeing of others. With a background as a high-competition table tennis athlete, I've learned that mental health is primordial to live a happy, functional, and effective life, and that physical health is crucial to enjoying every moment without pain nor regrets, and that's why Restorative Health is an excellent place to accomplish this mission by serving people and helping them live an enjoyable life. Here, all our efforts are for the people.
