We are an Acupuncture led practice in the center of Phoenix, Arizona. We deeply respect that every patient is an individual with their own unique needs. We work together with you to ensure optimal treatment plans that will have the best possible outcomes.
Our treatments help you tune in and listen.
Many people think that things like back pain or migraines are something they just have to “live with.” They take insomnia as a matter of course and get through the day reliant on caffeine for their chronic fatigue. While these may be common concerns in our modern culture, it doesn’t mean that it’s healthy.
When we take the first step in seeking help for physical or emotional concerns, we are already on the path towards healing. My job is to be your partner, while providing you the tools to allow your body, mind and spirit to heal.
Throughout your treatment we will help you to address and disengage from pain, limiting beliefs and trauma, and engage with healing.
All new clients start with a comprehensive consultation session where we’ll discuss your health history and your aims. From there, we’ll create an individualized treatment plan just for you.
Many symptoms are common, but that doesn’t mean they are normal. Insomnia, premenstrual agitation, frequent headaches, and digestive disturbances, for example, are conditions with which we learn to live. We really don’t have to.
If you reframe your perspective and understand that pain and emotions are OK, that they’re just ways our body communicates with our spirit, we can learn to use them to our advantage. We can take back control and stop them from dictating our lives.
I received my Doctorate in Acupuncture from Pacific College of Health and Science in 2020, and in 2009 I completed two Master’s Degrees at the Tai Sophia Institute in Columbia, MD.
For over a decade, I have been working with clients in private practice, both in the U.S. and overseas. For the last three years, I have worked as an Addictions Acupuncturist in addiction recovery centers in the Phoenix valley. I started Mindful Life because I believe each one of us can make a difference to our communities by contributing our gifts and talents for the benefit of everyone.
My passion lies in educating and empowering each client to stand in their own gifts and transform their health on all levels.
“Since I began working with Lesley my life has improved dramatically. Thanks to her encouraging words, along with acupuncture, I feel much more balanced and capable of handling life’s stresses. I am calmer, less anxious, and enjoying everything so much more.”
“I have been in and out of acupuncture for the last few years and can tell you that Lesley is just great! She is professional, knowledgeable and truly works to help your body help itself.”
“I’m always amazed at my own transformation after my treatments with Lesley. The beauty and depth of acupuncture treatments coupled with Lesley’s expertise and therapeutic guidance is a gift; for me it’s the gift of life. I leave the office both physically and emotionally strengthened. Lesley has taught me how to accept myself and how to truly live with faith, courage, and commitment. I am forever thankful for Lesley’s kindness and friendship.”
“Lesley brings tremendous insight and compassion into her treatment room. She has a deep understanding of nature and how we as people on this Earth can most ideally be intertwined within it. Her straight-forward, thought-provoking style is refreshing. There is not another practitioner that I would more strongly recommend to anyone who asked.”
“I have been under acupuncture treatment with Lesley for almost a year. I first sought acupuncture treatment for cystitis. After about three treatments my symptoms of urinary urgency and frequency were completely gone. Lesley has been working with me to heighten my awareness of bladder irritants and the mind body connection in general. I have had positive unexpected results from acupuncture treatment such as a decrease in nightmares and food cravings. I went from a reluctant and skeptical acupuncture patient to true believer in the power of aligning the body through acupuncture so it can heal itself. It has proven to be an amazing adjunct to Westernized medicine.”
