About Me

Hello! I’m Dina (she/her), a holistic integrative nurse practitioner and herbalist based out of Kingston, NY on the unceded lands of the Lenape people.

In my practice, I blend eastern and western medicine, bridging the gap between modern medicine and traditional healing practices. I believe these approaches can—and should—work together in harmony. With a decade of experience in conventional healthcare, I’ve witnessed firsthand how our healthcare system often falls short in addressing the root causes of chronic illness. There simply isn’t enough time in a typical visit to truly explore and understand the deeper connections within the body.

As an integrative health practitioner and coach, my role is to empower individuals by helping them translate symptoms into actionable steps for healing and taking the time to dig deep to uncover root causes. I focus on regenerative health practices and harm reduction, emphasizing life-nourishing habits that honor the radical interconnectedness of our bodies and the environment.

I believe it’s time to move beyond the outdated, one-size-fits-all conventional sick care and fleeting influencer wellness trends. Instead, we deserve a personalized, preventative, and deeply embodied approach that reconnects us with our bodies’ innate wisdom and healing capacity.

My work is rooted in vitalism - the belief that your body carries innate wisdom and the power to heal when supported with the right conditions.

Whether you’re navigating chronic health challenges or simply looking to optimize your well-being, I’m here to meet you where you are and support you in your journey.

For the past few years, I’ve worked at a functional medicine practice, building on my education from the Institute for Functional Medicine. I’ve also received clinical training at the Nourishing Life Health Center in Kingston, NU, and earned a community herbal certification from the Terra Sylva School of Botanical Medicine in 2021. I am currently enrolled at the Academy of Healing Nutrition and will complete my Holistic Health Coach Certification with a focus in Traditional Chinese Medicine and Ayrvedic medicine in February 2026.
