With more than 15 years of clinical experience, she has dedicated her career to helping people understand the profound impact chronic stress has on the body and what it takes to truly recover.

After experiencing adrenal fatigue herself, Dr. Kinney became passionate about helping others uncover the root causes of their symptoms rather than simply managing them. Her personal experience, combined with years of clinical practice, has shaped her practical and compassionate approach to helping people restore their energy, resilience, and overall well-being.

As the creator of the Stress Reset Formula™ and author of The Cortisol Cure, Dr. Kinney combines science, clinical expertise, and real-world application to educate audiences on the connection between stress, cortisol, hormones, energy, mood, and long-term health. Through her clinical work, programs, writing, and educational resources, she has helped hundreds of patients overcome fatigue, brain fog, anxiety, insomnia, hormone imbalances, and other stress-related health challenges.

Dr. Kinney believes the body is designed to heal when given the right support. Her work focuses on helping people reconnect with the wisdom of their bodies, understand the effects of chronic stress, and create sustainable changes that lead to lasting health.

In addition to caring for patients, Dr. Kinney is a sought-after speaker who shares practical, science-based strategies for stress recovery, hormone health, and burnout prevention. She serves as the Immediate Past President of the Maryland Naturopathic Doctors Association and is an active member of the American Association of Naturopathic Physicians.

Dr. Kinney earned her bachelor's degree from Vanderbilt University and graduated summa cum laude from the University of Bridgeport College of Naturopathic Medicine. Today, she continues to educate audiences through her writing, speaking engagements, programs, and online community while helping people move beyond survival mode and reclaim their vitality.

When she is not caring for patients, writing, or teaching, she enjoys spending time with her two daughters, practicing yoga, reading, and traveling.

THE MISSING PIECE NO ONE IS TALKING ABOUT

A practical path to understanding burnout, resetting stress, and restoring you energy—based on the science of cortisol and hormone balance, from a naturopathic doctor, educator, and speaker who has spent more than 15 years helping men and women recover from burnout and hormone imbalance.

“Not simply an accomplished treatise on 'the' critical stress hormone made by the body; it is also a beautifully written and easy-to-understand tour through common symptoms and syndromes that physicians often find mysterious, and perhaps more importantly, what you can do about them.”  — Dr. Peter D’Adamo, Author of Eat Right for Your Type

Most people have been taught that cortisol is the "stress hormone" and that too much cortisol is the problem.

But what if the opposite is true?

What if years of chronic stress have depleted your body's ability to produce and respond to cortisol effectively?

What if your fatigue, brain fog, hormone imbalance, stubborn weight gain, poor sleep, anxiety, and burnout are all connected?
