Summary

• Hi! My name is Laurie Powers and I have been a medical provider for over 30 years. I am a PA and am certified in Primary Care with an Additional Qualification in Psychiatry. Frustrated with the system, I decided to go back to school to learn how to treat disease using a healthy lifestyle, something that is lacking in our American medical system that focuses on Big Pharma.
  
  As a Primary Care PA, I was able to become a Certified Culinary Medicine Specialist, which is the art of preventing and treating disease (mental and physical) simply using food. As a Psychiatric PA, I obtained a Certificate in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I), which is a step-by-step plan to teach people how to sleep.
  
  Both CBT-I and Culinary Medicine are so amazingly effective that I started my own practice to focus solely on wellness. My patients generally sleep great, report feeling much better - and my overweight patients lose weight. I see patients ages 2 and up from all over the state of NC, as I offer both in-office appointments as well as telehealth. I take nearly all major insurance plans.
