Jessica Watson, DAcCHM, L.Ac
Jessica Watson is a Doctor of Ancient Chinese Medicine and Licensed Acupuncturist with a deep respect for the traditional roots of Chinese medicine. Guided by her sensitive nature, lifelong relationship with the natural world, and early experiences with depression and social anxiety, Jessica felt an innate calling toward the healing arts long before she knew what form that path would take.
During her undergraduate studies, Jessica discovered Ancient Chinese Medicine and immediately resonated with its sophisticated, holistic theoretical framework and its ability to connect the patterns of nature with living expressions in human beings. Committed to learning this medicine in a way that remained faithful to its thousands-year-old lineage, she pursued her education at the National University of Natural Medicine in Portland, Oregon, where she studied for five years under skilled and passionate mentors.
Through Ancient Chinese Medicine, Jessica weaves together her love of whole-systems science, her sensitivity to subtle energetic shifts, and her desire to support others along their healing journeys. While her work is rooted in ancient knowledge, she stays up to date with modern discussions and evolving research in natural medicine.
Jessica believes that no person is too complicated and no diagnosis too complex to be supported through the lens of Chinese medicine. Whether through acupuncture, herbal medicine, or holistic lifestyle recommendations, she is committed to nurturing the innate healing power that lives within each patient.
