A personal message from Dr. Sentell (Hopkins)

Living a life full of abundance and vitality is within our reach at all times. Yet at times we become mired in the complexity of our lives and forget what thriving really feels like. Whether you are looking for more restful sleep, increased energy and mental clarity, improved digestion, or healthier relationships and a more balanced mood, a path back to this vitality is possible! As a Board Licensed Naturopathic Physician and Acupuncturist, I combine evidence-informed wisdom inspired by nature with modern diagnostics and tools to help you along this path. My practice has a special emphasis on integrative mental health. This includes Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy, Psychedelic Integration, and treatment for the spectrum of eating disorders and disordered eating. I especially enjoy collaborating with other healthcare providers to facilitate coordinated and effective treatment strategies.

My background in social work informs my belief that as a provider my job is to address the whole systems that impact your life. As such, my commitments to you are this:

  • I will meet you where you are at with deep respect for your values.
  • I will partner with you to create practical and accessible treatment plans that honor your budget, family needs, and lifestyle.
  • I will help you de-clutter the emotional and physical accumulations of life so you can feel lighter, more connected to your passions and calling, and more engaged with your friends, family, and community.
  • I will listen attentively to your story without judgment, understanding that you are a person, not just a list of symptoms. And don’t worry – no symptom is too strange to mention. I never cease to be amazed by the breadth of human experience!

    • Finally, I feel lucky that as a Naturopathic Doctor and Licensed Acupuncturist in Oregon, I am able to employ a broad toolkit to accomplish these goals including the use of Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy, herbal medicines; diet, exercise, and lifestyle recommendations; massage and bodywork; and the use of supplements or pharmaceuticals when necessary.

    About Dr. Sentell:

    I believe a healthy life is an engaged and balanced life. To cultivate my own balance when not practicing medicine, I spend my free time running, hiking, and boating along the many trails and rivers the Northwest has to offer; practicing Qigong; enjoying Portland’s thriving food and drink culture with friends; or planning my next adventure abroad.
