Herbal medicine is one of the oldest healing practices in the world—used for centuries by communities across every continent. At the same time, modern research continues to uncover the ways plant compounds interact with our bodies to support health, balance, and resilience.
In my practice, herbal medicine lives at the intersection of ancestral wisdom and current science. Every formula I recommend is grounded in evidence-based medicine, honoring both our contemporary understanding of physiology and the historical knowledge of the people and cultures who have used these plants for generations.

What Is Herbal Medicine?
Herbal medicine uses the roots, leaves, seeds, flowers, and barks of plants to help the body heal, adapt, and thrive. It’s a powerful yet gentle modality that can be used to address:
-
Stress and anxiety
-
Hormone balance
-
Sleep support
-
Digestion and detoxification
-
Immune health
-
Menstrual, fertility, and postpartum concerns
I use herbal medicine as part of the lower therapeutic order, meaning I often start with herbs, nutrition, and lifestyle before moving to pharmaceuticals. However, herbal support can also be a valuable companion for people already using medication or navigating more intensive medical interventions.
Honoring the Roots of This Work
I want to name something clearly: herbal medicine is not new, and it is not mine alone to practice.​​
This modality exists because of the stewardship, knowledge, and lived experience of Indigenous peoples, traditional healers, and women—many of whom have been marginalized or erased in the history of medicine. I hold deep respect for the cultural and spiritual roots of plant medicine and strive to practice in a way that is humble, ethical, and grateful.​

This is plant medicine made for your body, your story, and your life.
