Dr Lana Ferris is a naturopathic doctor in Vancouver, WA. She specializes in mental health, eating disorders, and transgender health.  In addition, she especially enjoys working with complex trauma, autistic adults and teens (she is a late diagnosed autistic adult), highly sensitive people, and burnout.

Dr Lana takes a medical approach that is compassionate and personable, yet evidence based and thorough. As a naturopathic doctor, complex cases are some of Dr Lana’s favorite.  She relishes the process of deciphering the relationship between seemingly unrelated symptoms. 

Her practice is also informed by her core values: reliability, connection, presence, and inclusivity. Reliability means she is dedicated to being responsive to messages and consistent in providing seamless care. Being truly present is something she strives for in every interaction. This ensures that you receive the unwavering attention and support you deserve.

In addition, she values spending time with each patient to develop a true connection. She sees you as a teammate and the expert of your life/body/experience.

She is committed to providing a judgment-free and welcoming space for everyone regardless of race, size, gender identity, sexual orientation, or background.  Moreover, Dr Lana firmly embraces “Health at Every Size” as she understands that well-being transcends a number on a scale.

Lastly, she provides trauma informed care and works  with you to make sure you feel comfortable seeking care for sensitive topics.

Her journey to becoming a Naturopathic Doctor started at Whitworth in Spokane WA for my undergraduate. Then she finished at the National University of Natural Medicine (NUNM) in 2020. Dr Lana completed multiple clinical rotations in mental health, transgender health, and addiction medicine.

Beyond her professional life, she savors quality moments with her husband and daughter in Vancouver WA. You’ll find her hiking, tending to her garden, or reading in her free time.
