J. Whiskey Northrop, LAc, MAoM
From a young age, Whiskey developed an empathetic way of connecting with others. Acting as her disabled mothers caretaker, she was both challenged and gifted w/ the deepest gratitude for folks who struggle to care for themselves physically, MENTALLY, spiritually, and financially.
After obtaining a ba in film, Whiskey realized that though she loved working in an artistic industry, she was lacking a sense of greater fulfillment. In 2014, she obtained a Masters degree from Or college of oriENTAL MEDICINe and shortly thereafter open a private practice in the tabor neighborhood in portland OREGON.
whiskey believes that Stepping into someone’s life as they navigate their health desires & CONcerns is a profound privilege. She is supportive and attentive and provides a safe space for healing and transformation.
WHEN WHIskey is not in the office, she can be found in nature w/ her pup ‘Homie’ or sharing snack plates in good company .
