About & Scope

Rev. Dr. LaVeena B. Archers, PhD

Holistic Functional Medicine practitioner, teacher, and author, based in Sedona, Arizona and serving clients worldwide, with a special focus on entrepreneur wellness.

LaVeena's work blends traditional healing, modern functional insights, and holistic lifestyle strategies, informed by Human Design. She is a 3/5 Human Design Projector Teacher, a Certified Executive Coach, and the author of Bad Medicine Blues, written from both sides of the exam-room table after her own long road through illness, dismissal, and the slow, unglamorous work of rebuilding her health from the roots up.

Her practice operates within a Private Membership Association (PMA), a private, members-only framework. Read about joining the PMA.
