Why are we called “Heal with Nature”?
We believe in the power of nature and that the body has an innate ability to heal itself if you remove the obstacles to healing. Health is more than just the absence of disease; it requires discovering and healing the root cause of your imbalance, instead of “taking something” to mask the symptoms. Heal with Nature is here to help, teach, and support you in feeling as happy, energetic, and healthy as possible. We want to you have a long and healthy life!

Dr. Mitch Kennedy is a Naturopathic Doctor (a Connecticut-licensed primary care provider) and is co-author of the upcoming book, Toxic to Terrific: The step-by-step detox guide to safely remove dangerous toxins from your body and life.

At UCHC he practiced in the Center for Women’s Health, the Reproductive Fertility Department, and the Cancer Treatment Center. He also served as a clinical instructor to the UCONN School of Medicine, the University of Bridgeport School of Naturopathic Medicine, and Southwest College of Naturopathic Medicine.
Before becoming a doctor, Mitch received a bachelor’s degree from Tufts University, majoring in both Civil Engineering and Geology, and ran his own environmental consulting firm.
As an environmental engineer, Mitch earned an international reputation as a leader in pollution prevention, showing industries around the world how reducing toxic chemical use saves money and the planet. His textbook on financial analysis of environmental projects, published by John Wily & Sons, is considered the authoritative text that proves doing the right thing for the earth is profitable for corporations.
Dr. Kennedy now specializes in sustainability and resiliency planning. He is also a LEED-certified “Green Building” consultant, helping people to build and remodel homes, offices, and factories in a non-toxic, and energy-efficient way.
He was among a select group of the first 1,000 people from across the United States trained by Al Gore to teach about global warming and what we can all do to help. Dr. Kennedy volunteered for 2 years to present to over 10,000 people in groups such as lawyer’s associations, medical boards, regional governments, and manufacturing groups.
