I have a confession:

When I was a naturopathic student and early into my practice, I thought I had no interest in “women’s health”. I didn’t feel particularly passionate about menstrual health, perinatal health, or any of that stuff.

But you ladies changed me. The more of your stories I heard, the more inspired I felt. The more rage I felt. The more curious I became. And eventually it just became an obsession, to learn as much as I could to give you the answers you needed for your health because no one else was giving them to you.

It is a privilege that I get to meet women who walk all different life paths, and hear their stories, their wins, their pains, and their ambitions.

Women do and will continue the change the world in the most incredible way. My “why” is to help them feel good enough to do that. I’m thankful for all the incredible women in my life for being an inspiration to me and teaching me how amazing women are.

Happy International Women’s Day!

It is still common for us to hear “we didn’t know there was therapists here” or people expressing that there isn’t anywhere in Hinton to do in-person therapy.

That is okay - that just means we need to do a better job of letting people know we are here!

Share with your family and friends in Hinton to make sure they know we’re here, and ready to help!

The reality of the situation is, most women come to me in their 40s and 50s - when perimenopausal changes have already started. And, I am so happy to guide them towards the practices and tools available to them to support them during this time. There is so much that can be done to help them feel good.

But, the truth remains - some things are alot harder to course correct at this time. Physiological processes like bone loss or insulin resistance become harder to address the longer they are an issue. This also goes for mindset.

Truly, one of the best tools for your perimenopause journey is to become a participant in your own health now.

These are a few things I’d suggest thinking about sooner rather than later. ❤️

It’s well-known for most people that their digestion is affected by stress. An obvious example is when you suddenly have to go to the bathroom when you’re feeling anxious (nervous poops anyone?)

But what might not be as obvious to you is what we call gut-brain axis dysfunction, which is essentially a disruption in the communication between your gut and your nervous system. This is actually an underlying issue in the vast majority of IBS cases and the thing is, it isn’t always a clear linear relationship. By that, I mean that it isn’t the kind of thing where it just acts up when you are acutely stressed or anxious about something. It is an ongoing two-way dysfunction that can result in digestive disruption and mood disruption - even when you’re not in a stressful moment!

The good news is, there are many different ways to address this dysfunction. As a naturopathic doctor, I get to spend the time necessary with you to look deeper into your digestive and mood issues, and come up with a comprehensive plan to address it. Come see me at The Meadow Clinic in Hinton, or we can work virtually from anywhere in AB!

✨2025✨

Looking back, 2025 was a pretty big year over here.

Opening and growing The Meadow Clinic was a huge part of my life this year.

Being a mama and a wife (celebrated my 10 year wedding anniversary!) was another huge part.

Beyond those, I’m surprised I managed time for anything else to be honest haha.

But, I’m actually quite proud of how well I took care of myself this year. My mission is to help women with fatigue, burnout and stress, and I felt I needed to walk the walk. I worked hard and I rested hard too. I prioritized myself a lot. Sometimes I had moments where I wondered what I was doing wrong because I felt like it should be harder. But resting gave me the strength to get through the tough.

I’ll share with you what worked for me in 2025 and what I am excited for (personally and professionally!) in 2026.

What about you?

Looking forward to next year with you all ✌️

Hey! 👋

Have we met?

My name is Jayelle and I am a naturopathic doctor practicing in Hinton, Alberta.

My jam is helping stressed out, tired and “hormonal” women feel vibrant so they can lead healthy, happy, lives.

I own and operate , a space committed to nurturing the physical and mental health needs of our beautiful little rural town. I’m also the proud mama of a toddler (a 🔥 little Sagittarius). All this to say is that I have alot on my plate too, and so I get how it can feel when there is just TOO MUCH to do. I am here, walking this walk with you. I want women to understand though that you shouldn’t feel like you are dragging yourself through mud on this journey. I want to help you raise that bar for yourself so you can let that light shine. ✨

My approach is grounded in reality and evidence - exhausted people don’t need more tedious health rules or hacks. They need strategy, support, and things that work.

If you feel that *pull*, like this is exactly what you need, then we should talk. You can jump right into an initial appointment, or we can have a 15 minute alignment call first to see if we’re a good fit. Looking forward to meeting you!

Somewhere along the way, I fell in love with helping people find energy.

I think at our cores, that’s what we all want, right? To feel like we are vital enough, capable enough to live a vibrant life and follow our dreams…

I often like to ask people from the get go “what would you do if you had more energy” and it’s a privilege to get to see what unfolds for people as they start to feel good again.

This is just a little snippet of my process. Sometimes it’s a simple as this, and sometimes it’s more complex. But I’m always up for the challenge because your energy energizes me!

If you need a strategy to feel good, book an appointment through the link in my bio.

Going through a tough time with your ride or die?

Relationships can be tough. As individuals, we all have our own experiences that shape our thoughts and beliefs and behaviours. When two people come together it can be difficult to reconcile those differences even in the most loving of relationships.

Just like anything else in life, asking for help is a great idea. Working with a professional who offers a safe space for everyone to be heard can strengthen and deepen your relationship.

Couples therapy is now available at The Meadow Clinic and can be booked on our online booking platform. Reach out if you have any questions!

Did you know at The Meadow Clinic we have a fully stocked dispensary of professional grade supplements?

Professional grade supplements means there is a guarantee around quality (i.e. no Amazon counterfeits) and product integrity. In addition, professional grade supplements may have ingredients or dosing that is not available to the general public.

The naturopathic doctors at The Meadow Clinic will use supplements as part of a comprehensive plan. Some things to know about this:

1. We understand you don’t want to walk away from your appointments with 10 supplements. We try to be minimal in our supplement prescriptions while still making sure we’re getting the job done.
2. We believe in evidence based prescribing of supplements. We don’t just throw the kitchen sink at you. We use your health history and current research to guide our recommendations.
3. We like to give you timelines and expectations around your supplements so you have a clear idea what to expect.

As much as we don’t think you can supplement your way out of all your problems, a well prescribed supplement can make a big difference.
