About Liminal Naturopathic
Hi, I’m Dr. Alexis Farley
I am a licensed naturopathic doctor and holistic healthcare provider with a special interest in gut health, mental health, body image, and women’s health. I earned my medical degree from Bastyr University in San Diego, CA, as well as completed additional training in digestive health, women’s health, intravenous nutrient therapy, hormone replacement therapy, biofeedback, craniosacral therapy, visceral manipulation, and reiki.
Throughout my teens and 20s, I struggled with chronic stomach pains, bloating, food intolerances, eczema, anxiety, depression, and eating disorders all which left me feeling broken and unwell. Seeking help from doctors, I was often met with the response, "your labs look normal," leaving me frustrated and unheard. These experiences fueled my commitment as a doctor to offer individualized and holistic care. I prioritize listening, understanding each person's history, and thoroughly investigating the root causes.
Drawing upon the concept of "liminal," representing a transformative threshold, I act as a guiding presence in your health journey. I walk beside you through the possibilities of transformation. Together, we embrace the liminal nature of health—where we move beyond the conventional, exploring the space where profound healing unfolds. As we journey through the liminal space of health and healing, my mission is to empower you to take an active role in your transformative process.
I believe that education is a vital component of healing and I take the time to educate patients about their health conditions and the benefits of naturopathic treatments. I approach health and well-being from a whole-person perspective, recognizing that physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual aspects are interconnected. This allows me to create personalized treatment plans that address the underlying imbalances and root causes of health issues, moving beyond symptom management.
Outside of seeing patients, you'll often find me exploring new destinations, cooking seasonally inspired meals, and enjoying the calming company of trees and nature.
