Rooted in Nature...Weaving Integration

Like a tree grounded in ancient soil yet reaching toward future horizons, Dr. Valerie’s life and work embody a rare synthesis of vision, compassion, lived wisdom and pioneer of integrative medicine.   She stands as a testament to self-reliance, ecological reverence, and a deep intuitive intelligence, often flows beneath the surface of modern medicine.

A licensed naturopathic physician and metaphysician, Dr. Valerie is also a respected humanitarian, human rights advocate, philanthropist, author, philosopher, sustainable fashion designer, and global media hostess. As co-founder and volunteer president of You Know More, a nonprofit dedicated to empowering first responders, healthcare providers, educators, and community leaders by nurturing the awakening of inner wisdom as a foundation for compassionate leadership.

With over four decades of service spanning continents, crises, and cultural celebrations, Dr. Valerie brings an integrative, Earth-centered approach to healing. Her work blends ancient knowledge with contemporary practice, offering care that is both grounded and visionary.

Three near-death experiences in the 1980s became pivotal catalysts in her life and activated profound perceptual shifts and opening multidimensional insight across time and space. These experiences deepened her purpose and gave rise to a global following drawn to her authenticity, clarity, and depth of presence.

Much like rivers shaping the land through quiet persistence, her service flows through medicine, art, and advocacy. Through the lens of “Craftivism,” she cultivates transformation by inviting individuals to reclaim their agency, repurpose outdated beliefs, and activate their own healing potential. This inner renewal naturally radiates outward, reshaping communities and contributing to a more conscious collective.

Dr. Valerie’s presence is both grounding and uplifting, like light breaking through after a storm. She encourages people to return to their essential nature, compost the past, and plant the seeds of what she calls "valYOU": a unique expression of purpose and inner truth.

As an impact entrepreneur and policy advisor, she pioneers sustainable, heart-centered models of change. Her initiatives offer adaptable, trauma-informed frameworks for transformation, guiding individuals and organizations to align in service, compassion, and rooted purpose.

The movement she founded; The Nature of Your Nature… cOMe hOMe to YOU kNOW More, is an evolving ecosystem of art, medicine, and regenerative living. It invites people to bloom into their most authentic selves and embrace their role in the greater web of life.

Dr. Valerie finds her deepest fulfillment in serving families, community leaders, and fellow pioneers; those willing to walk paths less traveled. Her work is fertile ground for personal and planetary renewal, and her presence serves as a reminder:  You already know more.

Her  mission: To guide individuals back to the Nature of their Nature… to rediscover their intrinsic valYOU, and rejoin the living ecosystem as active, aware participants.​

“Healing soil... Flourishing soul... YOUr seeds of possibility nourish the world.”
