Leanna wants to help her patients be the healthiest versions of themselves so they can continue to live the life they desire. She enjoys working with patients who are open to trying new and alternative interventions and who are committed to making a change.
“As a Naturopathic Doctor, I believe you deserve the best possible health outcomes. My objective is to uncover the root cause to your health concerns, and prevent further illness. I strive to provide individualized treatment plans that connect mental, emotional, and physical health while working in conjunction with your current treatments and medications. I want to ensure my patients have the opportunity to express themselves and feel that they have been truly heard. My intent is to empower my patients through education and help them better understand their health. Through collaboration in developing realistic and sustainable treatment plans, I encourage patients to take control of their health, and achieve a better quality of life.”

Diabetes Educator with almost 20 years of experience in the field of dietetics, and a lifetime of passion

with the support they need to meet their health goals.

Hi there! My name is Laura Louise Persichetti! I am excited to be part of the NatCan Team and offer services that will support your journey with all the amazing practitioners you are working with here.
I am a Registered Psychotherapist, trained Life Coach, and Spiritual Guide. This multidisciplinary training allows me to support individuals mentally, emotionally, physically, and energetically; addressing the individual as a whole. As we have come to understand, our thoughts are energy, our words are energy, and our emotions are energy. Not addressing energy when addressing these aspects of ourselves is to miss a valuable component.
My desire for many, many years was to discover what truly brings happiness in life. I traveled all around the world, studied with many different teachers, and explored a variety of different cultures. In my discovery, I realized happiness was not the answer. The truth is, we are destined to discover JOY. It is my honour and true joy to support people in discovering this joy in their life as well.
My practice has always been about looking at the individual person as a whole: mind, body, soul, and spirit. You can make all the “right” healthy choices, but if you don’t address your mind and emotions, you’ll be missing a major component. Just like you can talk out your feelings, but if you don’t address your physical health and body, you’ll be missing a huge component there too.
NATCAN has always been an incredible place to look at all areas of your life for health and wellness. I’m excited to be part of your healthcare team to help you conquer your mind and emotions, align you to your goals, support you in your relationships, and watch you excel when you bring all the pieces together.
I’ve studied with many amazing teachers and professionals around the world, and have developed a multidisciplinary practice with a variety of experience from supporting people in hospice, to CEOs scaling their business. Life doesn’t come with a handbook. Having a professional in your corner can make all the difference in your health, relationships, family, business and overall fulfillment in life.
We can book 1:1 virtual psychotherapy sessions and we can book 1:1 in-person sessions to help you balance and align your energy structure through activations and energy healing modalities.
I look forward to meeting you through NatCan and working together through psychotherapy sessions or individual energy healing sessions.
Hi there! My name is Laura Louise Persichetti! I am excited to be part of the NatCan Team and off...

Hi, I’m Madison. I am a recent naturopathic graduate of the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine. I am driven to help you achieve your optimal health, no matter your concern. My personal struggles with acne and digestion have inspired me to help others who have with similar conditions. Women’s health and fertility have a special place in my heart since completing a year-long internship focusing on these concerns.
I practice collaborative and personalized healthcare that aligns with both traditional naturopathic principles and evidence-based medicine. My focus is on treating the whole person and working with my patients to facilitate their body’s inherent self-healing abilities. If you are interested in proactively addressing your health, or have any questions about naturopathic medicine, I am happy to help.
When I am not working at NatCan, you can find me on the local hiking trials, watching rom-coms or trying out a new recipe.
