Ancient medicine for a timeless you.
You may be here because you are in pain, navigating a chronic illness, moving through hormonal change, recovering from trauma, experiencing burnout, or simply because you no longer feel like yourself. Whatever brings you here, we begin by listening.
Every treatment begins with deep listening. Chinese medicine offers a different way of seeing the body: as an intelligent system, always moving toward balance.
My work begins by understanding the whole picture. From there, treatment becomes less about chasing symptoms and more about caring for the whole person.
Serving the Greater Fort Lauderdale community in person, and a global community through retreats, workshops, writing, and speaking.
Healing is not simply the absence of symptoms. It is the gradual return of clarity after confusion. The return of steadiness after fear. The return of vitality after illness. The return of yourself.
Whether you are recovering from trauma, living with chronic illness, navigating hormonal transition, healing after medication injury, or simply longing to feel like yourself again, you are welcome here.
I help people recover from profound disruptions to the nervous system and return to themselves through integrative medicine, education, and compassionate presence.
Whole-person medicine, rooted and unhurried
Born in Jean-Rabel, Haiti, I spent summers at my grandparents' home in the mountains, surrounded by medicinal plants, fruit trees, and a quality of stillness I would later understand as a parasympathetic paradise. The land shaped me before any training ever could.
I came to the United States at twelve. In 2006, I became a licensed Acupuncture Physician, and I have been in private practice for twenty years. My practice sits at the intersection of Traditional Chinese Medicine, trauma-informed contemplative practice, and community healing.
I work from the understanding that the body is designed to heal, and that when healing stalls, something is causing an obstruction. I approach it the way a gardener tends a garden: with patience, consistency, and deep respect for natural timing.
The fullness of your humanity is welcome here.

Learn MoreWhat I believe about healing
Healing is possible
The body knows how to return to safety when it is met with patience and skill. My work is to help it remember.
The nervous system comes first
When the body feels safe, the deeper work can begin. I tend that ground before anything else.
Ancient medicine, real life
I translate twenty years of clinical practice into language and care that belong to your daily life.
You do not have to leave parts of yourself behind
Your culture, your grief, your history, your questions, and your strengths all belong. The fullness of your humanity is welcome in any space I hold.
Your roots run deeper than the harm.
Healing held in this room
I suffered shoulder pain for over 3 years, visiting different doctors, wasting time and money, yet I was still in pain. Until I started acupuncture treatments with Valencie. Now I am pain free. She is a true healer.
N.C.She takes the time to truly connect with you and identify the root of the problem instead of just treating the symptoms.
S.J.B.As someone with a real fear of needles, I was nervous. She immediately put me at ease. What truly sets her apart is her empathy.
S.D.I have been going to Valencie for over 8 years. Every appointment is like the first time. I have never been disappointed.
K.R.Valencie treated me for strong vertigo and dizziness. She literally saved my life.
J.P.I went for lower back pain. My experience was nothing short of magical. Just being in the space felt healing.
Patient since 2012I struggled with back pain for 6 years. In just 3 short visits I am feeling 10x better. She is excellent at her practice.
B.R.A great healer and a master of her craft. Rapid results and excellent follow up. A great listener who understands your pain.

Whether this is your first acupuncture treatment or your fiftieth, you are welcome here.
Choose a time that works for you. I will meet you with care, skill, and attention to what your body is asking for.
Schedule a SessionI have come to believe that healing is not about becoming someone new. It is about remembering who you were before illness, trauma, burnout, loss, or fear asked you to forget. My work is to help create the conditions in which that remembering becomes possible.
