| ABOUT OUR GUEST SPEAKER
Dr. Emily Telfair began and grew her naturopathic practice in the Baltimore area after earning her Doctorate of Naturopathic Medicine from Bastyr University in Seattle, WA. Originally from St. Louis, MO, she first learned about naturopathic medicine while studying biology and psychology at the University of Dayton in Ohio. The combination of a strong science curriculum with attention to how both emotional and spiritual stressors impact physical health resonated with Dr. Emily’s belief that healing begins with understanding the whole person.
Dr. Emily holds a license for Naturopathic Medicine in Maryland. While serving as president of the Maryland Naturopathic Doctors Association, Dr. Emily was instrumental in helping to pass legislation to license naturopathic doctors in the state of Maryland in 2014.
To support a balanced and joy-filled life, Dr. Emily enjoys the simple pleasures of walking to work, Sunday yoga class, mindfulness meditation and connecting with friends and family. She lives in the Hampden neighborhood with her husband Chris.
