The first thing that will happen when you sit with me for a consult is that we will discuss your history. I will ask you questions about your diet, lifestyle, and other regular habits. You should be prepared to share with me according to your comfort level. I need to know what health issues you may have had in the past, what makes you feel alive and healthy, and what things may be contributing to the reason you are sitting with me on that day.

 

After we talk history, we’ll talk more deeply about what you need help with. What are you most concerned with? What do you want to use herbal medicine for? I use this to build a personalized profile that will evolve with you over time.

 

Together, we'll explore how to best support your well being using herbs and nourishing foods. If you're interested in an Earth based spiritual element, we can include that in your visit. I tailor my consultation to your comfort level, so we can start as small or as big as you like!

​

By the end, we choose several herbs to focus on and study them a little bit together.

​

Finally we will make a few choices to keep it simple. I'll send you home that day (yes, that day!) with a selection of herbs to get you started. From that point I will be available for questions to help you get settled into your new routine. We are in this journey together!

​

Herbal preparations usually include tea or extracts, which are taken orally. Please always make sure you share any prescriptions you are taking, and/or other supplements you regularly take so that I know how the herbs I recommend will interact. There are certain herbs that do interact with medications negatively, and some positively, so this is always an important aspect of the consultation.

​

And, as always, please consult your physician and work with your team of medical professionals as part of my offerings. We want you safe and healthy!
