Stephanie began her healthcare journey as a home health aide while attending nursing school, graduating as a Registered Nurse in 2002. She worked as a Critical Care RN while earning her Master’s degree in Adult Health, graduating in 2007 as an Adult Nurse Practitioner. Over the next 20+ years, she dedicated her career to treating the most vulnerable patients in high-acuity settings — specializing in medical, surgical, cardiac, and cardiothoracic critical care.

This extensive experience opened Stephanie’s eyes to the gaps in traditional medicine — especially the lack of preventive care and whole-body healing. Her own personal health journey led to a deep passion for integrative and functional medicine, which focus on identifying and treating the root causes of illness rather than simply managing symptoms. She believes in caring for the whole person — mind, body, and spirit — and blending evidence-based conventional and natural therapies to support long-term wellness.

Stephanie has completed advanced training in anti-aging and functional medicine, including hormone optimization, GI health, peptide therapy, weight loss, and aesthetics. Through Simplistic Wellness, her mission is to help you feel and function at your best — using personalized care that restores balance from the inside out.

Outside of work, Stephanie is a devoted wife and mom to a lively little boy who keeps her on her toes. She finds joy in movement, outdoor living, and grounding with the sun, sand, and sea — all essential to her own balance and peace.

Stephanie is honored to walk alongside you on your wellness journey. She is currently accepting new patients and looks forward to meeting you.
