Hi, I’m Cory.
Licensed Acupuncturist & Chinese Herbalist
I believe good care starts with feeling heard.
At Purple Clover Acupuncture in Malden, I offer thoughtful, individualized care for people navigating pain, stress, fertility concerns, and changes in their health.
Get to know my approach ↓Time to listen. Care that fits you.
Your symptoms matter—and so does how they affect your everyday life. I take time to understand what brings you in, what you’ve already tried, and what you hope will change.
Together, we’ll build a treatment plan around your needs and comfort. I’ll explain what I’m doing, make room for questions, and adjust your care as we learn how you respond.
A thoughtful foundation.
I originally pursued occupational therapy before finding my path in acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine. I graduated from the New England School of Acupuncture at MCPHS.
Currently I serve as an adjunct faculty member for the New England School of Acupuncture, assisting in the teaching clinic at Cambridge Health Alliance’s Malden location and supporting students as they develop their clinic skills. It’s here in the pain management clinic in Malden that I worked with patients experiencing complex musculoskeletal and neurological conditions. This experience deepened my understanding of chronic pain and strengthened my ability to tailor acupuncture treatments to each patient’s needs.
For the past two years, I have also worked at a clinic north of Boston that serves many patients navigating fertility challenges, including those undergoing IVF. Supporting patients throughout their fertility journeys has become a meaningful focus of my clinical work. I continue to expand my knowledge of reproductive health through ongoing study and professional development, providing individualized care that complements each patient’s medical treatment.
Helping you feel more like yourself.
My clinical interests include pain management, fertility and reproductive health, and the ways stress can show up in the body—from muscle tension and disrupted sleep to digestive discomfort. I’m interested in how these concerns overlap and how they affect your ability to feel comfortable, capable, and engaged in everyday life.
That may mean helping you work toward returning to activities you enjoy, offering support through the uncertainty of fertility treatment, or addressing the tension and exhaustion that build during demanding periods. Understanding what you want to get back to—or what you need help navigating—gives our work together a meaningful direction.
I want you to feel involved in your care. We’ll talk about your priorities, set realistic expectations, and check in on what’s changing. Whether you’re new to acupuncture or have had treatment before, there is room for questions, honest feedback, and adjustments along the way.
Outside the clinic
Outside the clinic, I enjoy a mix of physical challenges and quieter, creative pursuits. Running, CrossFit, and the occasional obstacle course race keep me moving. At home, I trade that pace for a crochet project—usually a blanket or stuffed animal—with my cats keeping me company.
