Bria’s interest in women’s health began with her work with adolescent girls and women in her former career as an outdoor educator and back country guide, and her passion for helping women find their healthiest and most complete selves continues to grow each year.

Bria completed her Master’s degree in Traditional Chinese Medicine at the American College of Traditional Chinese Medicine (ACTCM) in San Francisco, and is licensed as an acupuncturist in the state of California. Bria also holds national certification in acupuncture and Chinese herbology from the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (NCCAOM). She earned her BA in Art History from Williams College.

Bria is a Fellow of the American Board of Oriental Reproductive Medicine (ABORM), a certification held by only a small number of acupuncturists throughout the country. She is also a member of the Northern California Fertility Group, a coalition of Chinese Medicine practitioners who focus on fertility and reproductive health.

In addition to her Chinese medicine training, Bria is also a trained practitioner of Arvigo Techniques of Maya Abdominal Therapy as taught by Dr. Rosita Arvigo, DN.
