Raquel Cocquyt

I am a dedicated third-year Naturopathic Medical Student at the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine, committed to holistic health and wellness. My academic journey began with an Honours Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Brescia University College, where I also completed a Holistic Nutrition Certification.

My research focused on food addiction and preferences for palatable foods, supervised by Dr. Christine Tenk. This work culminated in the development of a novel Food Preference Questionnaire, which I presented at the Brescia Psychology Honours Thesis Conference.

Throughout my studies, I have received several prestigious awards, including the Brescia University College Principal’s Entrance Scholarship and the Suncor Energy Scholarship, reflecting my commitment to academic excellence.

I am actively involved in professional associations, including the Canadian School of Natural Nutrition Alumni Association and the Holistic Nutrition Hub, where I continue to engage with the holistic health community. I am passionate about integrating my knowledge of psychology and nutrition into my future practice as a naturopathic doctor.
