Diana is an author and sought after speaker on the topic of Life Transformation through trauma exploration and Energy work. From the age of 19 she has been exploring how energy systems are different in people and why stuck energy creates pathological illness within the body. This resulted in her studying with two Reiki Masters to become a Usui Master-Level Reiki Practitioner.
After many years in the corporate world leading teams of award-winning advertising campaigns, retirement presented an opportunity to lead her life in a new more fulfilling direction. She started by traveling the world studying from industry leaders in conscious transformation and energy work. Then she returned to Toronto to become a Registered Holistic Nutritional Consultant.
Wanting to make a bigger impact on the Holistic Nutrition Industry she became a Board of Director of the Canadian School of Natural Nutrition Alumni Association to support over 1600 RHN’s throughout North America.

founder story
Blazing a new trail for the future of naturopathic medicine and integrative wellness.
Founded by two Naturopathic Doctors, with over a decade of combined experience, longév clinic was brought to life by a shared dream and an unwavering dedication to helping patients improve their quality of life and to provide evidence-based solutions for longevity.
The Longév story began at Queen's University — where founders Dr. Kate McLaird + Dr. Nadine Khoury instantly formed a friendship and have been inseparable ever since. Finding sisterhood and support in each other, the two doctors attended naturopathic medical school, developing a shared dream to one day open a clinic of their own.
“Opening our own clinic has been a long-time dream of ours. We've always dreamt of creating a space unlike anything out there, an unconventional, state-of-the-art clinic that patients feel is a haven and a place that attracts the best practitioners out there.”
After years of working hard, honing their craft, and excelling as clinic associates, Dr. Kate and Dr. Nadine were driven to shake up the status quo, and provide more specialized and integrated care for their patients. longév was opened as a one-of-a-kind environment to make patients feel cared for through a comprehensive level of care, attention to detail, and commitment to their long-term health and longevity.
