Helping you live what matters most and journey towards better health.
“I believe that the journey to health is personal, transformative, and often internal and I feel honored to accompany patients on their own unique journey to wholeness and healing, whatever that journey may look like.”
— DR. SONNY MILES
Welcome… I’m Dr. Sonny Miles
Welcome! I’m Dr. Sonny, a board-certified integrative medicine physician and founder of Healing with Intention Integrative Medicine in Loveland, Colorado. My passion lies in helping you create lasting transformation - mind, body, and spirit - by blending the best of integrative medicine with personalized care that honors your unique journey. Whether you're seeking support in overcoming chronic health challenges or yearning for deeper alignment with your body, mind, and spirit, I’m here to guide you.
As a physician with board certifications in Internal Medicine, Hospice and Palliative Medicine, and Integrative Medicine, my approach is rooted in both science and the art of healing. I’ve spent over a decade caring for patients with serious illnesses, an experience that has shaped my belief in the power of intentional living and the connection between physical health and emotional and spiritual well-being. Through my signature offering, Journey Within, I guide you through a transformative four-step journey to reclaim your health and rediscover your inner wisdom.
Why Choose Integrative Medicine?
Integrative medicine takes a whole-person approach to health, focusing on all aspects of well-being—nutrition, movement, sleep, emotional resilience, and more. My practice incorporates evidence-based tools such as herbs, supplements, mind-body techniques, guided journeys, and other modalities to support your body’s innate ability to heal. Together, we’ll address the root causes of your symptoms and design a plan tailored specifically to your needs.
Your Journey Within
Through my signature offering, Journey Within, I guide women through a deeper season of healing—one that honors the complexity of your body, your story, and your life.
This work unfolds through two seasons of care:
The Healing Intensive: A Season of Transformation
This first season is designed to help you feel deeply seen, supported, and understood. Together, we look at your symptoms, health history, labs, patterns, and lived experience through the lens of integrative and functional medicine—while also listening for what your body and inner wisdom have been trying to tell you. This is where we begin creating meaningful shifts in your health, your relationship with your body, and the way you care for yourself.
The Healing Continuum: A Season Where Change Takes Root
Healing doesn’t end when the first insights arrive. The Healing Continuum offers ongoing support as your body changes, your needs evolve, and the deeper work begins to integrate into daily life. This season allows us to refine your plan, tend what is emerging, and help the changes you are making become more sustainable and embodied.
This is more than a program. It is a wisdom-led path of coming home to your body, reclaiming trust in yourself, and creating a life that can truly support your healing.
My Journey to Here
My path to integrative medicine has been shaped by a rich tapestry of experiences. I earned my bachelor’s degree in Brain and Cognitive Sciences from MIT and served as a Peace Corps volunteer in Paraguay, where I cultivated my interest in traditional healing practices. After completing medical school and residency in Internal Medicine at the University of California at San Francisco, I pursued fellowship in Hospice and Palliative Medicine at the University of California at San Diego and Integrative medicine through the Andrew Weil Center for Integrative Medicine at the University of Arizona.
Over the years, I’ve also explored healing traditions from around the world, including spiritual and plant medicine in Paraguay, Mayan healing in Belize, shamanic healing, Traditional Chinese Medicine, and Ayurveda and Yoga. These experiences and studies have become an integral part of who I am and how I practice medicine. They have shown me that our lives themselves are the medicine—that healing is abundant, deeply personal, and as unique as each individual.
I am honored to welcome you to Healing With Intention Integrative Medicine…
This unique healing space is created from the work of my heart, my soul, and my many years of walking beside people in illness, uncertainty, transformation, and meaning-making.
This is not conventional medicine as usual. It is a different way of seeing healing: one that honors your symptoms, your story, your nervous system, your inner wisdom, and the life your body is asking you to create.
Whether we meet in my beautiful space in Loveland or virtually from anywhere in Colorado, my intention is the same: to offer presence, depth, and a healing container where you can feel seen, supported, and guided back into relationship with yourself.
With a deep bow, I welcome you.
This is my story…
“I founded Healing with Intention to weave together the strengths of conventional medicine, the deeply meaningful conversations of palliative care—where facing our mortality brings life’s most important truths into focus—and the personalized, holistic approach of integrative medicine, rooted in what truly resonates with each individual. My mission is to walk alongside you on your unique and transformative healing journey, helping you embrace what matters most—not despite the challenges of serious and chronic illness, but because of the growth and meaning they can inspire.”
I fell in love with the mystery of the human body and healing when I was young. I read and listened to those in complementary medicine and to physicians who bridged the world of conventional medicine with these other ways of healing, such as Andrew Weil, MD, Lewis Mehl-Madrona, MD, and others.
I understood that healing was both science and art and required intention and participation and that the body could sometimes heal in amazing ways.
As a Peace Corps volunteer for two years in Paraguay, I saw what a lack of modern healthcare meant and how important and necessary it is (and miraculous at times). On the other hand, I also witnessed spiritual healers and people using all sorts of indigenous plants for common ailments which helped them live better.
I started my medical career as a hospitalist, taking care of patients sick enough to be admitted to the hospital. I became disillusioned with what I called, the “revolving door” where we would get someone well enough to go home but then days or weeks or months later, they were back with the same problem.
I knew that our toolbox in conventional medicine was limited and I wanted to help people more comprehensively - body, mind, and spirit - and with a much more individualized and comprehensive toolkit. So I returned to my first love and completed a fellowship in integrative medicine through the Andrew Weil Center for Integrative Medicine.
I also saw how sometimes the care in the hospital was mismatched with a patient’s goals. I felt we needed to do a better job communicating with patients about what our care could and could not do and what patients actually want when they are ill. I found it incredibly meaningful to have these difficult and yet important conversations when someone is very sick or dying. So, I returned to medical training to complete a fellowship in hospice and palliative medicine.
I spent several years caring for those with serious illness, talking to them about what mattered and how they lived their best possible moments with illness, and sometimes about the challenges of living when a person knows they are dying.
Meanwhile, I have been on my own journey of healing and have utilized many different modalities including acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine, shamanic healing, breathwork, herbal medicine, vitamins and supplements, psychotherapy, internal family systems, coaching, reiki, Rossiter, yoga, mindfulness-based stress reduction, and craniosacral therapy.
When I’m not practicing…
Outside of my work, my life is deeply rooted in connection and nature. I live in Loveland, Colorado with my husband and our two sons in a beautiful, nurturing landscape. Being outside - walking, hiking, caring for our home - deeply nourishes and grounds me. Learning, especially about health and healing, is one of my greatest joys—it’s a lifelong passion that fuels both my work and my personal growth. I also find balance and presence practicing yoga, riding my horses, and walking my dogs. Connecting with nature, with my animals, with myself, and with my family reminds of what matters most and to continually strive to show up authentically and meaningfully in the world.
