Michelle Ritola

Hello! I’m Dr. Michelle, a naturopathic physician currently offering telehealth services and licensed in both OR and WA. I have a private practice for cash pay patients am also affiliated with Be Well Holistic Health and can see patients in person in Longview, WA. I graduated from the National University of Natural Medicine in 2021 with my Doctorate in Naturopathic Medicine. While at NUNM, I participated in additional coursework in Integrative Mental Health, Eating Disorders, and Cranio-Sacral Therapy. I honor each patient’s journey and will take the time necessary to get to know and understand you to assess for the root cause of any acute or chronic symptoms. My evaluation may include specialized laboratory testing and referrals to specialists if necessary. I offer comprehensive treatment plans that address the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual needs of my patients and collaborate with them to find the treatment that best fits their current needs and resources. I offer botanical medicine, homeopathy, flower essence therapy, nutraceutical recommendations, lifestyle modification coaching, and prescription medications as necessary. I am passionate about treating people equitably, finding and treating the underlying cause of disease, and helping you bring peace into your relationships with yourself and your body as well as your relationship with food. As a larger bodied person first and a medical provider second I understand the challenges faced by those of us who struggle with fatphobia in medicine and work diligently to provide the best possible care through a HAES and Intuitive Eating perspective.
