Dr. Jennifer Williamson moved to Vermont in October 2012 to join Avalon Natural Medicine of Vermont as an employee. Nearly five years later, she transitioned into the owner, as well as the primary physician.
Over the years in practice, Dr. Jen has developed a strong interest in helping patients with psychological concerns, whether they be mood disturbances, mental function, or behavioral issues. Training and practicing Hair Trace Mineral Analysis taught her the complexity of nutrient antagonism and synergism that is often neglected in the world of one-size-fits-all multivitamins. More recently, she trained with the Walsh Research Institute learning the Advanced Nutrient Therapies which complements her earlier training. Walsh's protocols are used to correct imbalanced biochemical pathways that create neurotransmitters, as well as modify epigenetic changes that turn on or off underlying DNA. Dr. Jen is currently the only Walsh-trained physician in Vermont, Northern New Hampshire and Northern New York.
Dr. Jen does not just treat the brain! As a Naturopathic Physician, she takes all signs and symptoms into account in order to treat the whole person. A naturopathic intake is thorough and looks at all systems of the body to determine where the imbalance originates in order to treat the cause of the ailment. Whether she recommends herbs, nutrients/diet, or homeopathics, Dr. Jen's treatment plans are intended to stimulate the 'healing power of nature', often referred to as the Vis Medicatrix Naturae by Naturopathic Physicians
