      <image:title>Meliora Clinic Providers - AIMÉE BONNEVAL, ND, LAc</image:title>
      <image:caption>She/Her As a Naturopathic Doctor and Licensed Acupuncturist, Dr. Aimée (pronounced "ay-MAY") seeks to provide primary care services through a holistic lens while coordinating care among patients' care team members. She opened Meliora Clinic to provide access to quality care for all, including both complementary and primary care.  Dr. Aimée's interest in medicine began at an early age when a chronic condition introduced her to our current medical system. This experience showed her that relationship-based care is crucial to fostering trust and safety in the clinical setting. As a result, she strongly believes in informed consent, shared decision-making, and bodily autonomy while providing care through a trauma-informed lens. While Dr. Aimée provides care for adults of all ages, she also sees minors who have reached adolescence and have a primary care pediatrician. She is focused on educating patients about their bodies, promoting their health, preventing disease, and individualizing care to meet each person's needs. She loves getting to know her patients on a personal level and welcomes anyone who shares these values to meet her at Meliora Clinic! In her free time, Dr. Aimée enjoys reading, hiking, drawing, painting, and sailing with her partner and her Rhodesian Ridgeback "puppy," Sula.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Meliora Clinic Providers - NICOLE ASBAHR, LAc, MSOM</image:title>
      <image:caption>She/Her Nicole Asbahr is a licensed acupuncturist and Chinese herbalist who graduated with a Masters of Oriental Medicine from Maryland University of Integrative Health.   She first became interested in holistic medicine in her early twenties when she started to develop confusing physical symptoms. This initiated a long journey of exploring other approaches to manage chronic illness and to create wellness within. When she discovered acupuncture, she experienced a profound resonance with the medicine, and it has been the foundation of her own healing for the past two decades. The process of tuning into her body has been both challenging and deeply illuminating and is what inspires Nicole to want to help others. Nicole began her formal acupuncture training in the tradition of 5-Element acupuncture, which is particularly effective at addressing mental and emotional imbalances and uses a gentle needling approach with fewer needles. Since completing her initial education, she has deepened her study of Chinese medicine by learning other acupuncture styles, therapeutic approaches, and needling techniques. She often weaves lifestyle coaching, nutritional guidance, gentle inquiry, and complementary therapies such as moxibustion, Gua Sha, and cupping into her treatments. At the heart of Nicole’s work is deep listening and the philosophy that every person is a blend of unique experiences and characteristics, which are all asking to be seen and supported. From this place of curiosity, compassion, and service, she tailors individual treatments by selecting the approach and technique that is best suited to the patient’s needs in that moment. She enjoys helping patients with emotional regulation, digestive issues, reproductive health, hormone balancing, stress reduction, mindfulness practices, as well as everyday aches and pains. Outside of the clinic, Nicole finds joy in the simple things—cooking nourishing meals, relaxing in nature, listening to podcasts, reading, discovering new walking trails, and exploring Portland’s vibrant neighborhoods.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Meliora Clinic Providers - Joanna May, ND</image:title>
      <image:caption>She/Her Dr. May was drawn to naturopathic medicine when searching for solutions to questions that conventional medicine just didn’t seem to be able to answer. From receiving an undergraduate degree in biology (EWU 2007 BS biology) in Spokane Washington to medical school (NUNM 2012) here in Portland Oregon, Dr. May’s love of science has only been strengthened through naturopathic medicine. With ongoing research on the use of our tools and modalities, being trained and using such a powerful medicine is nothing short of amazing! We learn more and more about treatment and disease prevention day by day. Incorporating that into care brings me great joy! Dr. May finds it to be an incredible blessing to be part of the health and healing journey of people. She has a passion for untangling medical mysteries and getting to the root of a person’s health concerns and with a strong science background. Dr. May likes data – so testing and information gathering are often high on her list. Outside of clinic life, she enjoys spending time with her husband and fur babies (2 very opinionated kitties – a tabby boy &amp; siamese girl), cooking delicious vegan food, and playing board games with my friends.</image:caption>
