Dr. Tim Clayton

Originally hailing from a combination of New Jersey and New Orleans, Dr. Tim first discovered naturopathic medicine in 2015 while working as a copywriter at a social media advertising agency in New York City. After months of research and shadowing a naturopathic doctor, he decided to take the plunge and abruptly changed careers, moving to Seattle to study naturopathic medicine at Bastyr University.

He fell in love with naturopathic medicine because of its focus on stimulating the body’s own innate healing processes. While in school, he decided to broaden his natural medicine horizons by also studying acupuncture and Chinese medicine and thus integrating two incredible systems of natural medicine.
In practice, Dr. Tim loves to focus on reinvigorating a sense of joy, vitality, and purpose in every patient. He truly believes that every person can live a life of vibrant health, and that every person has an important part to play in the great web of life.

Visits with Dr. Tim are tailored to each individual patient. His favorite clinical tools and specialities include acupuncture, physical medicine, herbal remedies, lifestyle modification, visceral manipulation, biofeedback, mindset medicine, and a sense of humor.

In his free time, he enjoys spending free time with his dog, wandering alone in nature, seeing live music, playing video games, searching for his next favorite food spot, and meditating.
