About Ananda Health
Healing from the inside out.
Although Dr. Werner’s passion lies in providing holistic, integrative care towards mental health, she treats various other conditions as well. These conditions range from autoimmune disorders to hormonal imbalances, fatigue, and chronic pain. It is Dr. Werner’s personal philosophy that everything first starts out in the mental-emotional realm before translating itself in the physical body. Her philosophy is best described by the following quote, “The organs weep the tears that the eyes refuse to shed.” by Sir William Osler, 18th-century physician. Dr. Werner provides a holistic treatment approach that emphasizes the importance of the mind-body-spirit connection. Dr. Werner believes the body has an innate ability to heal itself. “The soul always knows what to do to heal itself. The challenge is to silence the mind'-Caroline Myss.”

Within her practice, she acts as a guide, facilitator, and teacher to empower her patients to not only achieve a state of optimal health and wellness but to unlock and access the state of their true potential. “As a healer, I am not here to heal you but to teach you how to heal yourself”-Unknown. Dr. Werner is a certified reiki master and incorporates various energy healing techniques such as Angelic, Holy Fire reiki. Utilizing a specific type of dialogue, Dr. Werner helps one uncover their subconscious, limiting beliefs and what she often refers to as the “inner child narrative.” Until we begin to “do the work,” this narrative is what often dictates our lives as it becomes the lens through which we see the world. “Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will rule your life and you will call it fate”-Carl Jung
Ananda Health's Story
Due to a traumatic childhood, Dr. Werner struggled with severe anxiety, panic attacks, and depression. Desperate for relief, she sought out care with numerous psychiatrists and spent several years playing “trial and error” with various pharmaceuticals. At only 11 years old, she had been prescribed over 8 different psychiatric medications without any relief of her symptoms. Upon hindsight, Dr. Werner recognizes she simply had PTSD and had been over-diagnosed, mis-diagnosed, and significantly over medicated. Unfortunately, her experience was not unique and mirrored the reality of many others who had also been failed by and lost within the conventional medical system of polypharmacy. Relentless in her pursuit for healing, she attempted various other therapies with little success. As a last resort and with nothing to lose, Dr. Werner sought out care by a naturopathic doctor who specialized in homeopathic medicine. Upon being prescribed the right homeopathic remedy, she recalls the experience akin to, “feeling the sun shine on her face again.” Finally, the once chronic daily anxiety, panic attacks, and depression began to subside until it resolved altogether. This profound healing journey not only changed the trajectory of Dr. Werner’s life but also ignited her passion for overall health and wellness. Inspired by her own recovery, she dedicated her life to becoming a naturopathic doctor, committed to helping others achieve the same transformative healing she experienced.
