My name is Ksenia (silent “K”) Malarkey (formerly Dr. Ksenia Lynch) and I am a naturopathic doctor in Seattle, WA at Zen Attitude Wellness. I received my Doctorate of Naturopathic Medicine from Bastyr University and completed a two-year residency at AIMS Institute in Seattle with a focus on chronic disease, therapeutic injections, and psychotherapy. 

 

I grew up in St. Petersburg, Russia and from a young age was taught to view health through the lens of our environments. My summers were spent foraging mushrooms, berries, and herbs under the guidance of my grandmother. Her teachings laid the foundation for my belief in the importance of holistic care and “vis medicatrix naturae” (the healing power of nature). My clinical practice combines these beliefs with evidenced-based research to develop treatment plans that are transformative and provide lasting change.

 

I passionately believe in treating the patient as a whole person. Disease and dysfunction can negatively impact your entire world and, inversely, the world can negatively impact your health. When striving for optimal health and well-being, we must take into account the physiological, psychological, cultural and spiritual aspects of your life.

 

My clinical interests include hormone balancing, chronic and autoimmune disease, digestive health and pain management. I draw upon a wide array of diagnostic tools to identify the root problems holding people back from living the life they want. I pride myself in creating strong partnerships with my patients to deeply explore and address challenging health issues.

 

In my spare time, I can be found exploring a new trail, a new country, or spending time with my partner and our pets (cat, Leonard, and dog, Parsley)

 

I look forward to meeting you!
