Holistic CLinical herbalism
|
During a consultation, we will look at your symptoms and also at lifestyle, nutrition, constitution, and emotional well-being in order to identify and address root causes. I specialize in working with folks with chronic conditions, digestive issues, autoimmune disease, chronic pain, pregnant folks and new parents, and herbs for mental and emotional health. I come from a neurodiversity positive, harm reductionist, gender affirming, trauma-informed, and health at every size approach.
While some plants have contraindications and interactions, herbal medicine is often compatible with taking pharmaceutical medications. Sometimes, herbal medicine can support the action of pharmaceutical drugs or can help mitigate side effects. My typical client has an extensive health history may be seeing multiple specialists and on multiple medications. After the consultation, I will formulate herbal medicines (most often tincture or tea) specifically for you. You will also receive a personalized care plan that may include plant medicines, supplements, movement, nutrition, or other practices to address your goals and concerns. I am not a doctor and I am not licensed to diagnose or treat disease. |

Kind words from herbal clients:
"I am a 70-year-old woman with a chronic health condition. Over the past 3 years this condition has caused me much mental and physical distress. A year ago, I sought help and since then have consulted with Jean 10-12 times. They listen. They alter the herbal blend according to the feedback I give them. I am treated with respect. Jean is an accomplished herbalist. They are a kind and compassionate person. I feel that I am recieving help that I did not get elsewhere. I hope that this very rare health care practitioner and extraordinary person continues to be available to people who need their help." |
"When I met Jean, I hadn't felt well for 10-12 years and wasn't sure that they could help me. I have been to several doctors and had numerous tests. However, Jean was very thorough in the consultation and got to the root of my issues. They formulated for me two tinctures and a tea to take daily, and now I am on the mend. Jean is a very warm, caring, nurturing person. They are very knowledgeable in herbs and are patient in explaining how each one works for the body. Jean is a gifted healer and I would highly reccomend them." |
