The Practice of Contemplative Medicine™
Bridging Science + Spirituality
Dr. Cass Naumann is a Doctor of Chinese and Integrative Medicine, contemplative medicine scholar, and the creator of Contemplative Medicine™ — a clinical framework uniting evidence-based neurobiology, classical Daoist medicine, and the regulating power of presence.
Over two decades her practice has become something rare: a body of work that holds both the precision of clinical medicine and the depth of lineage-based transmission. Among the most credentialed and experienced practitioners of her kind in the country, she brings together a 23rd generation Daoist lineage, doctoral-level clinical training, and a lifetime of study across the world's great wisdom traditions.
Her private clientele includes leaders in business, public life, sport, and the arts — held with the discretion their trust requires.
There is a kind of medicine that works before a single needle is placed. This is that medicine.

“I am committed to the depths of my spiritual cultivation
and by the grace of the cosmos in concert with my

The Practice of Contemplative Medicine™
Contemplative Medicine is an integrative clinical model that unites evidence-based neurobiology, classical East Asian medicine, and the regulating power of presence into a single field of care.
It is the discipline of restoring coherence between physiology, perception, and the subtle field of awareness- the meeting group where ancient healing systems and modern neuroscience recognize the same fundamental truth:
The body heals most efficiently when the nervous system feels safe, seen, and oriented toward meaning.
Rooted in both rigorous science and contemplative wisdom to support profound and lasting change, this work supports patients navigating complex health conditions, trauma repair, and states of deep transformation by restoring the conditions for the body’s innate intelligence to reorganize and come forward.
Dr. Cass’ approach weaves together clinical practice, subtle perception, and embodied awareness to support healing at both cellular, energetic, and experiential levels.

Smokey is an 8 year old mini Aussie rescued in 2020.
Born for this life with me, he bows at the altar and when invited, lays under the treatment room table during sessions.
He loves to greet guests, show you where to go, and to guard/sleep by the door while we work.
He welcomes pets and treats.
