At the Center for Natural Healing, we treat people, not diseases. We believe that the body has an innate ability to heal itself if given proper support and nutrients. We work with our patients to remedy the causes, not just the outward signs, of their illnesses. Our focus is to provide holistic integrative healthcare, taking into consideration your mental, emotional, physical and spiritual well-being.
Naturopathic Medicine is a holistic approach to healthcare that blends modern scientific knowledge and medical training with the ancient wisdom of natural healing. The guiding philosophy in Naturopathic Medicine is to treat the root cause of disease using safe and gentle therapies, which stimulate the body to begin healing.
Dr. Sullivan prescribed a homeopathic remedy for me and provided nutritional counseling as well. I had gone to another naturopathic doctor previously who had recommended that I practice a vegan diet. However, Dr. Sullivan identified me as "O" type blood and recommended that I have animal protein in my diet.
Reflective listening and faith-filled prayer, that helps remind an individual that we are immersed in Spirit and God. The definition of health for Homeopathy is freedom from limitations. So it is with life style and spiritual counseling- to be free from dis-ease. Dis-ease is not just necessarily a diagnosis but includes a thought, or behavior that supports the false self and negates the true self.

It's been about a year since my last appointment and as soon as the stay-at-home orders are lifted I will be back to see the doctor. Dr. Sullivan changed my entire life from the inside out. I have a stronger sense of self, better overall wellness, I lost weight, and I have seen my physical and emotional health drastically improve after only 3 appointments. The results have been long lasting as well. I've recommended Dr. Sullivan to as many people as I can. She is the real deal!

If I could give Dr. Sullivan 100 stars, I would! I came to Dr. Sullivan at a time when I felt unheard by a team of doctors that were treating me. She listened to my concerns and started me on the path to healing. She is honest, tells you what you need to hear, and is passionate about your overall health and wellness. Dr. Sullivan doesn't treat symptoms, she is driven by healing the whole person.
You may not see results as fast as "traditional" medicine, but you will see results overtime and notice how much your overall health improves. Be patient, it might take some months, but you'll see and feel the changes! She is truly a healer and I recommend her to anyone who asks for a natural doctor in the DC area. If you're ready to stop just treating symptoms and change your life for the betterr, Dr. Sullivan is the person for you!

This lady is a fraud; she charged my wife credit card on an appointment that her office screw up, and claimed that I did not give a 24 hours notice. I have never been to her office, so I don't have any such agreement or arrangement with her. My wife was a client for more than 20 years, so she uses her card, without my approval. Notice that I am the client, not my wife, yet she fraudulently charge her card.

I highly recommend Dr. Sullivan to anyone who wants to try an alternative to normal medicine. In particular, Dr. Sullivan has really helped us with my daughter's asthma / cough. With the remedies she gives us, we are able to keep my daughter's asthma totally under control and not go back to the cocktail of steroids and other medicines that she used to take before we turned to naturopathy.
She is patient and good with Children and takes time to get to know the patient and all their symptoms / issues in order to give the best suited treatment for them. She has definitely changed the way we eat in our household for the better also and all of us feel better and healthier for it. So don't keep struggling with ailments that modern medicine has not helped you resolve. Go visit Dr. Sullivan!

My 5 yr old daughter went to see Dr. Sullivan several months ago after her eczema got so bad that her skin was cracking. I was at my wits end and was explaining my despair to another parent when one of the teachers at my daughter's school suggested Dr. Sullivan as she has referred many parents and everyone was very happy with the result. I explained that she had an army of doctors (Georgetown, Instute for Allergy and Asthma) who were very attentive and she had seen for years, done allergy screenings and elimination diets, etc. but her condition kept coming back. Having nothing else to lose, I called Dr. Sullivan's office and was able to book an appointment the following week.
She asked a ton of questions during the first appointment and asked us to track her diet (been there/done that) and gave her a remedy at the conclusion of the visit. We are pretty committed to good eating and healthy lifestyle so I was skeptical about Dr. Sullivan's impact. But, I decided that I would trust the process and adhere to the vitamin, diet and office visits suggested over the next few weeks. Then, something amazing happened.
She started to get better -- sleep through the night, smooth silky skin better.and I started feeling better too. I made some of the dietary changes out of solidarity initially, but my asthma improved, I was losing weight and feeling less achy when I woke up. Fast forward and my relatives can't believe the changes in my daughters skin and I've been able to substitute 3 out of 5 of my asthma medications for vitamins and natural remedys and feel better than I have in years.
It sounds cliche to say it was the best money I ever spent -- but it has been. I only wish I could take back the years where I/my daughter were not patients. Dr. Sullivan got us out of the rut of existing with the status quo of pain-pain medicine-tolerable discomfort cycle. I get the impression that most of her patients have been coming for years, and she has walls full of awards and articles so I guess she doesn't need to advertise. But if you can get in, go! She's the best kept secret in DC.
