There is certainly a time and place for western medicine and care and herbs are not a swap for pharmaceuticals. Conditions commonly addressed include anxiety, stress, depression, anger, frustration, insomnia, trauma, pain, inflammation, autoimmune disorders, menstrual irregularity and issues, low immunity, colds, flus, coughs, infections, respiratory conditions, digestive issues, skin problems, heart and circulatory conditions, maintaining vibrant health, pregnancy, postpartum, fertility, and much much more! Herbal medicine is also a fantastic form of preventative healthcare and can be utilized to maintain vibrant health.

We can all do our best to buy the highest quality foods, drink the cleanest water and support our bodies but sometimes we need a little extra help. Whether you are blessed with good health and would like to help keep it that way, or are struggling with long-term health issues- herbal medicine can help. Herbalists see the body and its conditions as much more than the sum of its individual parts, and rather a vital, intelligent system that can be brought into balance via the synergy of food as medicine, the herbs, and lifestyle shifts. In this system the client is empowered to be their own healer rather than the “doctor as healer” paradigm found in western medicine, the herbalist serves as a support and guide.

While I work with a wide range of conditions I have a deep affinity to support mental health including anxiety and depression, hormonal regulation and detoxification.

Yes! Herbal medicine is very safe, especially when you are working with a skilled and trained herbalist.  Herbs may be safely used alongside pharmaceuticals when they are chosen appropriately based on potential herb-drug interactions, and there are many herbs that do not negatively interact with any medications at all.
