ND, IBCLC
Laura (she/her) is an advocate for new parents, a defender of the rights of the child, and a mother of 2. As a Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) and Naturopathic Doctor (ND) she loves supporting families as they prepare for the arrival of their little ones and navigate feeding challenges if they arise.
Her love for learning has led Laura to complete further training in infant mental health promotion, infant sleep, and self-regulation in the early years, which are all woven into her work.
Laura has lived in Canada, Thailand, and Ethiopia with her family, and along the way has been challenged to explore what it means to decolonize breast/bodyfeeding, parenting, and postpartum health care. When not seeing patients or running lactation trainings, Laura enjoys exploring with her kids, reading, listening to podcasts, being creative, and connecting with nature.
Naturopathic medicine and lactation consultations provided at Toronto Centre for Naturopathic Medicine are covered by most extended healthcare plans.

Our receptionist and administrative assistant, Calyn is here to greet you with a smile, offer you her full attention, and to ensure your every experience with us is a pleasure.
Calyn began working at TCNM as an intern in the Humber College Wellness Coaching program. When an opportunity to join the team presented itself, she “seized the day”, and has not looked back.
Outside of work, Calyn enjoys spending time with her friends, family and her puppy, Brandy. The kitchen is her happy place, as cooking for others is her “love language”. She finds nothing more restorative than than exploring nature and all it has to offer. You can count on her to always be striving to grow and achieve her highest quality of life while inspiring others do the same.
