    Serena Whitridge

    DSOM, MScN, LAc
    Owner, Acupuncturist, Nutritionist + Herbalist

    Serena’s path to medicine began not in a classroom, but in her own healing journey. As a teenager navigating Lyme disease, she turned to acupuncture—an experience that shaped her life’s work.

    She went on to earn a master’s degree in nutrition and a doctorate in East Asian Medicine, blending modern physiology with time-honored medical systems. Serena specializes in women’s health across the lifespan, including preconception and fertility support, painful or absent periods, PCOS, endometriosis, postpartum care, perimenopause, and menopause. She also treats a wide range of pain conditions.

    Serena is known for her hands-on, integrative approach, weaving acupuncture with craniosacral therapy and myofascial release. Herbal medicine is a cornerstone of her treatment plans, thoughtfully customized to support each patient’s constitution and stage of life.

    Through her training in Chinese medicine, Serena developed a deep understanding of the body’s cycles, patterns, and memory—how symptoms are not random, but meaningful signals mapped across time and tissue. The body has more than five senses, and it remembers.

    Her work helps patients listen, restore balance, and move forward with clarity.

    Outside of the clinic, Serena spends her time immersed in the Columbia River Gorge, nurturing a love for nature and movement while teaching her baby girl to explore the world alongside her.

  • Sarah Moeser

    DAOM, LAc

    Licensed Acupuncturist, Herbalist

    Sarah has been embedded in a matrix of healing since a young age. She spent her childhood exploring nature around Spokane, Washington, and the relationship she formed with the natural world early on continues to inform her practice of Chinese Medicine. In 2020, Sarah graduated from the Oregon College of Oriental Medicine with her master’s degree in acupuncture and oriental medicine, and in 2024 she concluded her doctoral level degree in the same field from the Academy of Chinese Culture and Health Sciences in Oakland, California. In Chinese Medicine the concept of healing is a direction, and it is by this definition that she practices; it is her hope and goal that the directions she prescribes foster greater health and wholeness in her patients.

     She has particular interest in the treatment of mental and emotional conditions, sleep disorders, pain and digestive complaints using herbs and acupuncture.  She presently lives in the gorgeous Trout Lake, Washington and enjoys spending her free time rock climbing, drinking tea, and making art in the company of her ever-playful cat, Meru.
